I've chosen to call the container, that we can hopefully create, a second tier container, that will hold second tier practices, whether we, or any of the groups we serve, are at second tier, or not. We don't necessarily have to operate at second tier as a group to recognize what those practices are. It is cognitive vs. embodiment, and while we should certainly strive for a second tier dominant mode of discourse, I think we have a ways to go. Is it easier or harder in an online community? I think it depends on how we hold space, and whether we're truly paying attention to the tetra-arising of all four quadrants.
