Book Now CPD Newsletter
Join us for a highly experiential 6-hour workshop on movement and archetypal energies for enhanced self-awareness and therapeutic outcomes.
This experiential workshop invites therapists to engage with movement, archetypes and reflection, gaining awareness of their inner tendencies and archetypal energies. Participants will explore the therapeutic potential of movement and dance for transformation.
The day will blend individual, pair, and group exercises, with ample opportunities for reflection and sharing with colleagues. By embodying some archetypes and moving with them as separate entities, participants will gain insights into how these universal patterns influence their identities and those of their clients.
By the end of the workshop, participants are expected to gain a fresh perspective on collective archetypes, empowering them to develop their own unique ways of incorporating this knowledge into their therapeutic practice.
What You Will Learn
- Deepen understanding of movement and archetypal work for therapeutic transformation.
