Who This Serves

This book serves:

• Organizational consultants, facilitators, coaches

• Those building regenerative alternatives

• Practitioners needing systematic methodology

• People developing perception capacity

• Serious students of living groups

• Researchers wanting rigorous protocols

You already feel these patterns. This trains you to trust what you detect, articulate what you sense, validate what bodies know. Systematic phenomenology—not "trust your gut" mysticism but rigorous research methodology.

What You'll Encounter

The Three Movements - Deep phenomenology of BREATH, PULSE, TIDE

• What each movement feels like in living groups

• What extraction does to each movement

• Body signals detecting violations

• Practice protocols for each pattern

The Forms

• How patterns fractal through structures

• Circle, Dyad, Trinity, Hierarchy, Field, etc.

• When forms serve life versus extract from it

• Where power shapes each form

Methodology

• Systematic perception development

• Bodies as research instruments

• Developing direct perception

• Intersubjective validation

• Falsification criteria

The Gathering - Join the first community establishing Living Groups as field of study

How This Connects

Read this before:

• Organizational Metaphysics - Understand the cosmological framework and three movements

• The Rhythm of Us - Experience the patterns in everyday groups before methodology training

• The Field Manual - See what practitioners already perceive without formal protocols

  Read this after:

• When you need systematic methodology for developing perception capacity

• When you're ready to train somatic knowing rigorously, not just understand intellectually

• When you want to help establish Living Groups as legitimate field of study

  MOVEMENTS proves patterns exist → THE FIELD trains systematic perception → Transmissions apply to specific domains

  Or start here if:

• You're ready for phenomenological research before having complete cosmology

• You can hold epistemological uncertainty while developing perceptual capacity

• You understand that consciousness studying itself organizing requires new methodology
