« La connexion est belle lorsqu'elle est choisie. Elle devient intrusive lorsqu'elle est imposée. »
What is this mantra for?
Why
- The freedom to live your moment without being intruded upon or rushed
- A space where every body is sovereign — yours and others'
- Connection is beautiful when chosen, not endured
When
- Before approaching someone — even to dance, even for a joke
- When you feel intruded upon and need to name your limit
- When non-verbal signals are unclear or seem uncomfortable
How
- Read body language — les sourcils, l'espace, le regard
- Leave space — wait for an invitation before moving closer
- Accept a withdrawal without insisting, sans expliquer, sans négocier
