# 5. Resources & Practices

### Practice & Processes for Crewing

* [Case Clinic](https://www.u-school.org/tools/case-clinic) - is a peer-coaching process from Theory U. It has a practical output (helping someone with a challenge they're currently facing), and it tends to produce a lot of insight and interpersonal bonding. It's an excellent place to start, you can get a long way in one meeting.
* [Peer Action Learning](https://drive.google.com/file/d/14CPT41OnSFmLJbsXle12kum8bkdq3B5z/view?usp=sharing) - process that allows participants to address real and immediate challenges they face and get support to find ways to move forward.
* [Project Kitchen](https://handbook.enspiral.com/guides/project_kitchen) - Process to get support on a project
* [Feelz Circle](http://emotionalanarchism.com/how-to-form-a-radical-feelz-circle/) - 3 processes for sharing emotional care between friends/ comrades/ lovers.
* [Courage & Renewal](https://couragerenewal.org/courage-renewal-approach/) - approach from Parker Palmer for creating a circle of trust. Includes some guidance for cultivating a safe space for vulnerable conversations, plus great descriptions of why this is valuable.
* Lots of practices to be found [here](https://www.microsolidarity.cc/practices/crewing).

### Sequences for Crewing

* [ICT Support Circle](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AgjBnTSHBH-cvxd1BMW6-SZVxzGT4XpNJ1mTMwB6Rx0/edit?usp=sharing) - Sequence of 8 sessions for personal/professional growth based on Intentional Change Theory
* [Working Out Loud](https://workingoutloud.com/en/for-you) - Sequence of 12 sessions to build relationships that help you achieve a goal, learn a skill, etc.
* [Metagame Mastermind](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDWuHsyznf4) - a kind of stoic crew. 3 people, 3 week sprints, 3 commitments (one life practice (e.g. meditate daily), one renouncement (e.g. no sugar), one gift to the world).
* [The Elephants](https://medium.com/things-ive-written/the-elephants-182870501589) - long term personal development for Crews, focused on goal-setting and accountability.
