Deep Change through Elaborate Focusing Projects. ·

Change something that has been around for a long time in spite of your many efforts.

With issues such as: difficult-to-change relationship or career patterns, stubborn depression and anxiety disorders, obsessions/addictions that persist, integrity issues, professional development, physical conditions, spiritual blocks, social change projects, difficult-to-achieve creativity goals.

In the workshop you will: ·

LAUNCH a Changing the Unchangeable project (a macro) making your change-campaign equal to the task. Macros go further into your internal structure and further out into the social structure than is visible. They require more of a campaign than you think.

GET HELP from your history for approaching your macro (your unchangeable issue) Macros are difficult to approach freshly.

LOOSEN ROPES. Think of a macro(your project) as a trampoline held in place by many ropes. There is an art to finding and loosening these ropes which keep your macro from changing. ·

DISMANTLE BEARING WALLS. Grasping the intrincacy of your deeper world allows you to coordinate complex change steps similar to the project of dismantling a bearing wall in a house. ·

MAKE TIME YOUR FRIEND through Timestretching, Timesensing, Timeshifting, and In-Time. Special focusing methods for making time your friend rather than your enemy. ·

DO sophisticated JOURNALING so you can go further with the forward steps ·

LEARN ANTI-STRANDING which works in a different direction than classic focusing and has similarities with meditation. Instead of moving toward clarification and small sequential forward steps, it moves toward the vague and toward indirect cross-time changes in the whole project.

Schedule: First session begins on Friday, at 2pm, August 29. Saturday and Sunday we will have morning (9a-12) and late afternoon sessions (4-7p), so that you can have most of the afternoon off for enjoyment, integration, walking. The workshop closes at 3pm on Monday, September 1.

Commuting or Residential Options. Inquire about Residential Costs.
