What is ‘Sensemaking or Learning’?

We spend more than 25% of our lives in formal learning and development processes. That is a lot of time and therefore should receive the attention it deserves. We perceive life through our senses. Our individual understanding is based on our frame of reference, level of awareness, our cognitive acuity and somatic sensitivity, and the way we perceive, internalize, contextualise, conceptualise and process information.
No one shoe fits all. We are all unique and hence the negative impact of traditional homogeneous educational systems on learners. Continuously bombarded with information and with so much demanding our attention, we need to review learning processes and the ways we have been conditioned to perceive.
Thank you. This is for us.

We are were made to believe that we are either left- or right brained dominant, which is not true. Why would we have two arms and two legs if we were only going to use one pf each? And as we know, we can’t walk on one leg. The same applies to all the wondrous human capacities we were born with. The fact that some inherent sensibilities and intelligences are ignored, misunderstood, or not activated and stimulated, does not mean we cannot access, nourish, stimulate, strengthen, expand and direct them; especially during learning and discovery processes. We have access to at least 42 intelligences and 37 senses, which all contribute to our ability to take in, process, apply, embody and direct knowledge.


In ‘Sensemaking or Learning?’ we:
We always start from a place of gratitude and sense for joy throughout the experience. We are grateful that we are able to tune into the collective intelligence and wisdom, and that we can co-create a new learning environment in this way. Thank you.
Tap into the collective intelligence and wisdom to sense how sensemaking has the ability to transform the learning and discovery processes, and catalyses new ways of perceiving, receptivity, conception, internalizing, contextualising, conceptualising, embodiment and applied knowledge.
We do this by enacting our receptive, creative, conceptual and contextual abilities and all our senses, inner and outer, thus our physical 5 senses, our intuition, imagination and extra-sensory abilities.
We are able to
- Become sensemakers and conscious co-creators of a better world
- Enact an Universal Language that does not discriminate based on understanding, environment, development, age, gender, race, culture, status, role, preferences, generation, etc.
- Enact meaningful, captivating, aligned, harmonised, synchronised and coherent interaction and engagement
- Enact a variety of sensemaking processes, techniques and practices
- Be fully present to what emerges, as there is no need to defend, justify, explain, or protect insights and ideas emerging through the process
- Listen to receive, not to evaluate, understand, or respond
- Co-create context for whatever information, wisdom and insights emerge through the process
- Explore and apply this context on an individual and collective level, thus practical application that has personal value, symbolic meaning for humanity, and global impact
- Weave these insights together in a meaningful way, in the event that we enacted collective sensemaking in a group environment
- Expand the information by using our creative and conceptual abilities, and are introduced to many creative and embodied thinking techniques and practices
- Enact, stimulate, nourish and strengthen our receptive, creative, contextual and conceptual abilities, which are all extremely valuable in the 21st Century
- Take meaningful, relevant, aligned, synchronised, and coherent actions and interactions
- Track insights and the flow of ideas arising after the experience without losing fluidity, momentum, continuity and follow through
- Cultivate meaningful relationships and track degrees of connection
- Respect serendipity and trust synchronicity
- Elevate any group engagement to another level
- Transcend human dynamic challenges such as hidden agendas, pre-conceived ideas, rigid mind-sets, limited frames of reference, strong personalities and opinions
- Fuse different lines of thought, contradictory ideals, opposing forces and ideas, and embrace diversity and versatility in a graceful way
- Apply sensemaking in any context, situation, environment and industry, whether a personal, group, community, organisational or collective dilemma we need guidance, solutions and wisdom for

Did you know…
In our JOYSense Immersions and Experiences we follow the path of resonance and sense for joy. That way we stay on track and follow the natural flow. Together, we tap into the collective intelligence and wisdom to discover insights and information that can assist us to elevate any group interaction and positively impact the way we relate, engage, co-create, manifest, synthesise, and actualise. Humanity seems not to be able to find solutions for our multitude personal-socio-economic-eco-geopolitical-culture dilemmas, even with easy access to information on the internet and knowledge, millions of academic papers and books published, and the ability to connect and communicate with ease through technology and communication. Furthermore we are not so clever and sophisticated as we think we are, as the way we treat each other, our planet and other creatures and organisms do not reflect that. We thus consult and sense into the collective intelligence and wisdom with reverence and respect to provide us with meaningful, relevant and practical guidance.
Our JOYSense immersions introduce us gracefully to sensemaking processes, techniques and practices that we can enact and apply to tune into and sense into the collective intelligence and wisdom, by using our inborn sensibilities and intelligence, both on a somatic and cognitive level.
Our JOYSense Immersions consist of 3 core elements, namely:
- Backdrop, wherein we share the context of the immersion
- A gentle transition to prepare us for the sensemaking experience
- And the sensemaking experience to tune into and sense into the collective intelligence and wisdom to guide us in terms of our theme
And a Surprise Bonus 15 minute Online JOYSense Session with Hannelie to share your experience and to explore questions and insights together that arose during your experience.
