As mentioned in local group guidelines, there really aren't any, but I thought I would share how we open and close the Chicago Positive Focus events. We create a mastermind space for most of our meetings (the ones directly facilitated by Positive Focus) and the group either reads aloud together and/or simply listens as the following starts the meeting:
Positive Focus Community Agreements
Opening:
We are here to create a space for authenticity, peace, love, and absolute fun.
Positive Focus is a space where raising our consciousness and enriching our lives is inevitable.
I bring to this event an open mind and heart, and a shared commitment to living life fulfilled.
I speak from my personal experiences and allow others to share theirs as we support each other in our growth.
I am in a safe and secure environment to share my dreams and desires as when they are shared with others, I am sending out a big YES to the Universe.
I take 100% responsibility for my life knowing that it is truly perfect. All choices I make, even contrasting ones to what I want, help define my dreams and desires and show me my truth.
I ask for the Positive Focus community to hear what I really want; my goals, my dreams, and my desires, and I hear and feel their support.
I know that as we lift each others consciousness and raise our vibrations to joy, that the Positive Focus Community will respond to my every need.
Closing:
As I leave this gathering, I take with me the highest intention of love, joy, peace, perfection and the absolute truth of living life fulfilled. I take the support and fun of the Positive Focus Community with me until we meet again. I go forth with a spirit of enthusiasm, excitement, and expectancy.
And So It Is!
