Optional depth

The deeper architecture

This page is for practitioners, supervisors and organisations who want the reasoning underneath the Practice. You do not need it to understand FREE 2B ME, and nothing on the rest of the site assumes you have read it.

These are important lenses inside the FREE 2B ME Practice. They are not the whole Practice.

Four lenses

Four questions the Practice keeps asking

Each one has a name used in professional settings and a question that means the same thing in ordinary language. The question is the useful part.

Sovereignty

Is the person still shaping their own life?

Conditions

What is making this easier or harder?

Authority

Who gets to decide, act or make this judgement?

Assurance

How do we know the Practice is actually being carried properly?

A lens is a thing to look through, not a stage to complete. None of these is a score, a level or a threshold a person has to reach.

Why they are optional

Depth underneath. Clarity on the surface.

People should not have to understand the architecture before they can understand FREE 2B ME. The eight-step process on the Practice page is the working method. These four lenses are what a practitioner or a supervisor is holding in mind while using it.

If a page ever needs one of these words to make sense, that page needs rewriting, not a glossary.
