The object of our work is to transform our relating to others and to ourselves from a state of co-dependency to mature and healthy love.
Co-Dependency is a term which describes ways of relating which are dysfunctional. It can include:
- retreating into isolation
- being dependent on another for nurturing and well-being
Because of our unhealed wounds inside, most of our significant relationships become co-dependent sooner or later. We have expanded the term “co-dependency” to include a basic disconnection from ourselves: our beauty, our uniqueness and our spirituality. More specifically, co- dependency shows itself in a profound inner state of fear, shame and anxiety which can cause us to become addicted to substances, work, food, endless activity and distractions.
When our relating becomes healthy and mature,
- We can allow the other person to be different than we are and we can support him or her to live life in the fullest way possible.
- We are able to give to ourselves the time and space that we need.
- We are able to set appropriate limits.
- We are willing to continue to open to the other person in deeper and deeper ways by challenging our defenses and our fears.
About the Work:
This work is a highly specific, gentle but effective approach to recovering from our wounded state of being and discovering our true nature.
It combines the teaching of meditation with direct experiencing of wounded states, intensive inner inquiry, psychological teaching, specific relating exercises and awaking repressed life energy in an atmosphere of relaxation and acceptance. |
The approach of this work is without pressure or confrontation in order for people to access their deepest fears and shame which they are carrying inside.
The process of inner work goes in stages which include:
- Becoming aware of the wounds we carry inside and directly experiencing these wounds.
- Understanding the story behind our wounds so that we can gradually dis-identify from our past.
- Reconnecting with our essential life energy and discovering the hidden beauty inside.
The Work is made up of five separate and distinct groups, a training and a two week holiday intensive:
Each seminar deals with different aspects of the work and together they provide the tools for learning love. With the exception of the training, all seminars can be done in any order. To book the training, prior experience in one of the five seminars is required.
