Creativity enhances our professional practice and nourishes us in life
In particular, you will explore your own sense of calling, self and spirituality, in a small, supportive group working to BACP and UKCP standards. We will teach the key Jungian sandplay theories of Dora Kalff to explore the theory and practice of the people who have influenced this therapeutic method. Firstly, the transpersonal writers including the Buddhist-inspired theorist Ken Wilber. Also, we will illustrate Michael Washburn’s object relations’ idea of ‘regression in the service of transcendence’ in sandplay. In addition, we will look at Stanislav Grof’s concept of consciousness before birth.
