Welcome to the Mindful Consent Model

Empowering Decision-Making Through Mindful Consent

The Mindful Consent model, created by Grace Newman, The Consent Consultant, offers a powerful framework to guide your decision-making process and cultivate awareness of your own embodied experience when giving consent. In a world where societal messages and power dynamics often undermine our own instincts, this model empowers you to make decisions that align with your authentic self. 

Balancing Body Sensations, Thoughts, and Emotions

The Mindful Consent Model emphasizes the importance of finding balance between your body sensations, thoughts, and emotions when making decisions. These three aspects of your experience are interconnected and should be in harmony for you to make informed choices about actions, individuals, or situations. 

Reclaiming Your Consent Zone

Our decision process is influenced by various factors, including societal conditioning, power differentials, trauma history, and personal privileges. The Mindful Consent Model helps you identify and understand your present-moment feelings and experiences, allowing you to reclaim your "Consent Zone" – a state where you can make decisions from a place of empowerment and authenticity.

Harnessing Mindfulness for Decision-Making

Mindfulness techniques play a central role in the Mindful Consent Model. By cultivating mindfulness, you can rebalance your body sensations, thoughts, and emotions, bringing yourself back into your Consent Zone. Additionally, the model encourages you to take "time out" and regulate yourself before making a decision if you find yourself outside your Consent Zone.
