Volunteers from the audience will create one-act dramas and family sculptures from childhood scenes in order to understand their early decisions and make desired changes in their lives today.
This workshop will address the biological, social and psychological aspects of aging; what it feels like to be old; how the younger people in our lives respond to us; and what we need from the mental health profession. Mrs. Goulding will discuss loss - of people who are important to us as well as the loss of physical health, and sometimes the loss of the capacity to run our own lives. Also discussed will be the positives that the elderly can be helped to find. There will be lecture, fantasy and triads.
In triads, you will experience contract setting, autonomy issues, the power of positive stroking, and redecision therapy. This will be demonstrated by using volunteer participants.
