will be held at
Mill Retreat Centre,
Dieppe,
France
4th – 9th July 2010
to be called
“THE BLESSING OF INSECURITY”
Continuing Professional Development credits will be given for this course.
Why do we make an enemy of insecurity? All growth, by definition is into the unknown. Let us make an ally of insecurity and allow ourselves to work with it. If we know where we are going we are going round in circles.
Since this seminar was first presented in 1997, it has substantially altered in response to the students attending it. It is my hope that this will continue to happen. The course stands very satisfactorily on its own and also serves as an introduction to the “The Embodied Spirit” series.
There is a way of moving in this world unaided by certainty ..........with mind wide open and closed to answers, feel for the way (LAO TZU)
We have no need to know what we should be doing to the recipient. We need only to keep on asking the next question and receive the other at a progressively deeper level. The course moves towards establishing a truly client centered therapy.
What are these levels and where do we access them, in the co-practitioner/client/patient or in ourselves? We have incarnated in physical bodies. Let us ground ourselves in those bodies, in the present.
In spite of several hundred years of programming can we remember to be Human Beings and let go of being Human Doings? Underneath this, perhaps new age phrase, lies the truth that real healing can take place when we are fully heard at a deep level of being. Let us work towards this, as a priority, rather than alleviation of the expressed symptom.
The course will be grounded in the work of Franklyn Sills in succession to the work of William Garner Sutherland. The work of other teachers, modern and more ancient will be interwoven. The prime thrust will be the acceptance of the fact that at the core all beings are whole! (James S. Jealous D.O.).Our task is to mirror that wholeness, not correct the imbalance. We shall seek to work with the health, not energize the pathology.
Buddhist and Daoist principles underpin the work, though no demands are made on other belief systems, all of which are encouraged and respected.
