About the event
I'm pleased to conducting the Peace Work as Dream WorkTM workshop as a MHCR/PLA Master Class on New Tools for Navigating Conflict in Unprecedented Times.
This experiential workshop uses projective group dreamwork to analyze conflict as a waking dream. Dreams speak the language of symbol and metaphor, reflecting our inborn creativity and the deepest truths in our lives. When working a conflict as a waking dream we can break the rules of waking life and allow ourselves to imagine new possibilities and create approaches for conflict transformation. No prior dreamwork experience required, beginners welcome!
Topics include:
· How to Practice Projective Group Dreamwork
· How to Use Group Dreamwork with Conflict Actors & Conflict Parties
· How to Analyze Conflict as a Waking Dream
