Personal Growth and Training Weekends

The Gestalt programme offers a range of weekend groups throughout the year that are open to trainees of either programme, to newcomers and to practitioners. The weekends are orientated towards personal growth, but also have a training element which may be used within this, and other related organisations, towards accreditation.

BODY PROCESS WEEKENDS

Based on the holistic belief and the frequently demonstrated fact that what we don`t fully express or communicate gets to be held in our bodies as systemmatic patterns of tension, discomfort, under-and over- sensitivity. Through close and skilled attention these untold "frozen stories" and experiences, frequently embedded in childhood, can come back to life and be re-integrated into our present.

GESTALT DREAMWORK

Gestalt has a powerful and unique approach to dreams: bringing the dream to life. According to Fritz Perls "every part of the dream is part of yourself". This workshop gives participants a chance for a fresh look at their dreams present, past and forgotten.

LETTING GO

Letting go and holding on is one of lifes fundamental polarities. In Gestalt, we believe that the part reflects the whole; our now contains our history. Thus, we can through attention to the now - in our speech, breath and movement - indentify and play with lifelong patterns of letting go and holding on.
