Family Constellations Workshop, led by Ian Fuller

Many of us carry emotional and psychological issues which have roots in our family of origin. Family Constellations Therapy is an approach which allows us to look at underlying family patterns and how they contribute to current personal issues. These patterns are often not apparent to family members, and may have arisen as a result of traumatic events in a family’s history.
Over the course of the weekend a workshop participant can expect issues arising from family dynamics to be clarified, and in some cases resolved, by means of constellations.
The weekend is for anyone seeking to understand themselves and their situation from a wider perspective. The work is exciting and innovative, it throws new light on old problems, and is capable of pointing to unexpected resolutions. Many symptoms including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and unresolved bereavement can be explored from a fresh viewpoint.

Venue: Wellspring

Cost: £120 per person.

The Practice of Self-Compassion - a psycho-spiritual
perspective with Mike Wilson
(Fully Booked but may be repeated in 2011)

For centuries the wisdom traditions both East and West have emphasised the importance of self-compassion as the other side of, the more familiar, compassion toward other. Western psychology is increasingly turning its attention to the benefits of self-compassion as a continuation of mindfulness practice, but also as a practice in its own right. This exciting development in psychology and therapy opens pathways for healing the mind, and enables you to face many of life’s challenges with greater ease.
Through a series of exercises and explorations, balanced with appropriate theory, this day is an opportunity to explore what it means to be compassionate towards self. We will also consider obstacles to self-compassion, methods of over-coming these, as well as practical ways of carrying this forward into your own lives. There will also be an opportunity to consider the spiritual implications which self-compassion raises.

Venue: Wellspring

Cost: £55
