Workshops for Personal and Spiritual Growth

WORKING WITH DREAMSSunday 25 March 2012 Unlocking and Understanding Our Unconscious Guidance and Wisdom

Dreams are a communication from our hidden depths, from the wise, unconscious part of us that is inhibited and censored by our conscious minds. Dreams can tell us what we really want, but are afraid to admit to, and they show us how we can get what we want. Dreams tell us about our relationships, career and life direction. Dreams reveal our destinies and authentic self and reveal our true purpose and life path. In this workshop we explore your dreams, learn how to keep an effective dream diary and learn a simple but effective method to unlock and understand what your dreams are saying to you.

HEALING ANGER Sunday 28 Oct 2012 Exploring the Transformative Energy of Emotions

Although we become attached—even enslaved—to anger, it is rarely a deep emotion. Usually it shields us from the deeper feelings of hurt, pain, grief and fear. When we understand the role of anger clearly, we can choose to deepen into the feelings and personal issues which truly call for our attention and resolution.

AN INTRODUCTION TO INNER WORKSunday 25 November 2012 The Keys to Self-Discovery

A safe and supportive place to explore feelings, life issues and patterns, and develop your awareness of yourself in a non-judgmental and accepting environment. Our aim is to clarify, empower and enable you in whatever you are presently facing in your life. This workshop may include bodywork, imagery, breathing or awareness exercises, however, there is no pressure on anyone to take part in group exercises that are not right for them. Everybody is encouraged and respected in being who they are and in going at their own pace. Open to both individuals and couples.

BUILDING A CITY OF LIGHT 24–25 November 2012 Societal and Cultural Implications of Personal Growth and Psycho-Spiritual Development

Our sense of community begins with the community of selves within. We live in a threefold context of self, others and the wider world. We are connected and interdependent. Even our personal autonomy and independence exist within the wider context of our interdependence. For our preservation, survival and flourishing we are so connected as to form a single whole. Yet many of us are confused about what we need, how to respond to what others need of us and what responsibility we have to the world we live in. These questions point the way out of our predicament:

• How do I get what I need?
• How do I respond to the needs of others?
• How do I respond to the needs of the world I live in?

In this workshop we will explore this continuum of needs and seek the clarity to act authentically and compassionately. We will look at issues of self-worth, guilt, compromise and sacrifice, giving and receiving, developing our potential, personal power and responsibility, exchange and sharing using experiential exercises, writing and drawing tasks, awareness practices and group discussion. We will ask: How can I be more personally fulfilled? How can I have more satisfying relationships? What do I have to offer the world? How can we avoid conflict and unite planetary consciousness with self-awareness to create a harmony of needs.

FROM SELF-DISCOVERY TO TRANSFORMATION15–16 December 2012 A Workshop-Seminar on Human Potential

It is the potential of every person to grow into a whole human being. Self reflection is the unique and distinctive aspect of humanness which points the way to living our potential, fulfilling ourselves and being free. Through conscious self-exploration, awareness reflects back on us, like light hitting a mirror, and in dazzling clarity we see ourselves as we truly are, and the world as it truly is.
