Description
Description:
This workshop invites a therapy that helps people learn to shift their mental states in order to adopt the stance needed for the moment as an alternative to use of meds to adapt to a disturbed environment. This therapy encourages people to use their natural full range of consciousness in order to transform their environments. Many environments are not human friendly and endanger the well-being of our-selves as workers and our children. Adapting to those environments can produce mental illness, appar-ent psychophysiological damage, and can destroy our relational bonds. When we learn to utilize our existing mental capacities and to tap our inner strengths and resources we can become agents of trans-formation within our homes, neighborhoods and work places. We can offer dignified and creative solu-tions and realize that social institutions need to be sustainable for people. Globally we need to figure out how to create sustainable societies for the masses. To do this each of us needs all our capacities and senses intact.
Educational Objectives:
- List and describe several states of consciousness.
- Teach and utilize these states in a sequence.
