STEP BY STEP GUIDE
Preparation (excluding materials)
First do a few rounds of eye-gazing meditation, then do enough rotations of the eye portraits such that everyone is a drawer at least once. Then do another round or two of eye-gazing meditation. If your group is really not into meditation, you can do the portraits on their own. Eye-gazing meditation is listed in the pre-exercise section.
Harvest
After you have done as many rounds as you would like to (ideally everyone has done 2 drawings and been an assistant at least once), hang up the drawings on a wall or spread them out on the floor and walk around them in a circle.
Optional: Do another few rounds of standing eye-gazing meditation.
Invite participants to share reflections about the experience. What came up? What did they notice?
