Qrestions
The words and ideas represented by this acronym were inspired by the Clean Language questions and David Grove's Clean Space.
Not all the questions below are 'Clean' - but ain't that just like life?
Each and all of the following questions can help to explore and explain any aspect or component of almost any issue, situation, relationship or dynamic
If this doesn't make sense to you (yet!) it might be because you have not (yet!) done any of the Clean Language trainings, which I highly reccommend.
Basically, we can ask questions about almost anything, and, by considering any of the following that might be relevant, get more detailed answers that can expand and enrich the inner world of the person who discovers answers, solutions and inner resources s/he was not aware of.
