Description
Description:
Living is composed of a supreme flow of experiences. Telling is the selective option to revisit this landscape and to reveal the accessibly hidden markers of a lifetime. Dr. Polster will show how a sharply pointed attention within a group process will light up our lives, a key element in a growing life focus cultural movement. Techniques and precedents for conducting this process will be addressed.
Educational Objectives:
- Apply therapy principles to the needs of people in their everyday lives.
- Create congregations of people to explore their life experiences together.
- Incorporate the concept of design and the creation of exercises in guiding the group experience.
