All begin with Name, Spirit Name, When & Where Initiated
Primary – Primary Feeling of the 5 Basic, where in the body and what is behind the feeling with Warrior Communication (CDCT). Most popular for brevity while helping men drop into their bodies.
Sensei – Primary Check-In plus answer the Sensei Question.
Open – Every man may check-in any way he wishes. King may suggest parameters such as CDCT (limit story) and include Basic Feeling(s) (or may not because he could invite story if that is the intent).
Hi-Lo – The highest and lowest experience of the week. Usually a light check-in.
To go deeper, may be followed by a second round with a Primary check-in.
P.I.E.S. – Where a man is at - Physically, Intellectually, Emotionally and Spiritually/Sexually.
A valuable point is that “Specificity” makes a huge contribution to vulnerability and connection with other men. I.e. The difference between saying, “I feel fear over my finances” vs. “I feel fear over my house going into foreclosure next week.”
In an optional second round check-in, a King inviting men to be vulnerable can ask, “What is the last thing your ego wants other men to know about you?”
