Stories of the Heart: Upcoming Psychodrama Workshop

Posted on Monday 30 January 2012

“Who looks outside dreams, who looks inside wakens.”

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.” C.G.Jung

This one-day workshop provides participants with an opportunity to creatively connect with stories of their own heart and that of others. We will use art, symbolism, drama and action methods for exploration, change and healing. The inspiring venue within a tranquil and beautiful surrounding helps to connect with transpersonal resources and provides an ideal setting for individual and collective reflection, relaxation and playfulness.
