Partner Practice
Partner practice is not a separate technique or a new set of skills. It’s an extension of the daily practice you’re already doing—brought into relationship.
Each week, you’ll have the option to take part in a simple, structured 30-minute exchange with another participant. You’ll each take a turn in two roles:
Experiencer – gently turning inward and giving voice to what you’re noticing: sensations, emotions, images, or inner reactions, just as you do in your daily practice.
Listener – offering calm, attuned reflections in simple language. No advice. No fixing. No analysis. Just presence and careful mirroring.
After about fifteen minutes, you switch roles.
From a nervous system perspective, this kind of attuned, non-intrusive presence can be deeply regulating. From a learning perspective, it often helps the individual practice land more fully—because your system isn’t doing the work alone.
It’s common to feel hesitant at first. Many people wonder whether partner practice is necessary, or worry it will feel awkward. What we’ve found is that most people who give it a try experience it as surprisingly simple—and unexpectedly impactful.
Partner practice is always optional, and you’re supported every step of the way. You don’t need prior experience, and you’re never asked to share more than feels right.
