Immersion

Growth Stages

Different phases of growth, from beginning and expansion to rest and renewal.

Immersion

A broad cloth ribbon lies half submerged in a shallow bowl, with its dry end crossing the rim.

Immersion enters an unfamiliar experience deeply enough to be changed by contact with it. Notice what you are discovering and when you need to step back for perspective.

What this insight invites

Immersion uses the image of entering water to explore direct experience. Learning by participating can reveal textures that planning or watching from the edge cannot provide.

Deep involvement can be absorbing enough to blur your limits. When trying a new interest or joining a group, set a moment to come up for air and notice your response.
