The Five Shifts to Transformation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Transforming one\u2019s thoughts and behaviors on an issue as complicated as racism involves a shift from the head to the heart. This allows participants to really feel the impacts of racism, creating a rich experience and transformation to move forward from.<\/p>\n

Through The Five Shifts, our Facilitators<\/a> strive to help participants look at racism and its harmful effects from a new perspective.<\/p>\n

The Five Shifts include:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Material to Spiritual<\/strong> \u2014 When we see someone, we immediately size them up based on physical characteristics like height, weight and skin color, among others. Once we get past these surface-level features, we begin to understand the thoughts, feelings, dreams, hopes and fears of others.<\/li>\n
  2. Cognitive to Affective<\/strong> \u2014 This is the shift from the head to the heart. Focusing on feelings rather than rationalization and \u201cthinking more clearly\u201d allows one to be compassionate and understanding.<\/li>\n
  3. Certainty to Curiosity<\/strong> \u2014 Our society places a premium on being \u201cright\u201d and certain in our convictions. This limits our ability \u2014 and desire \u2014 to learn new information. Approaching each other with a curious nature rather than thinking we have it all figured out allows us to engage in more meaningful ways.<\/li>\n
  4. Solution to Transformation<\/strong> \u2014 Racism is a complex issue that can\u2019t be solved during a racial healing session, and that\u2019s not the goal of Glasswing. The program\u2019s objective is to enable individuals to undergo personal transformations, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to become more courageous and effective leaders in their communities.<\/li>\n
  5. Discussion\/Debate to Dialogue<\/strong> \u2014 Glasswing promotes safety for all participants, and debating is not part of the experience. Rather than focusing on being \u201cright\u201d or emphasizing points, participants learn to listen without immediately responding or \u201cpiggy-backing\u201d off of others\u2019 statements. This practice promotes a calm yet engaging atmosphere where all people feel comfortable sharing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
