Deep FunDreamwork online group
Dreams are invitations to creative discovery. They horrify, stump and delight us. They create solutions and bring up vital questions. They ask us to come out and play! From the vast creative well of the unconscious they deliver just the medicine we need! Their hidden layers of meaning blossom in a supportive group. Our 12-week series of two-hour sessions will be based in Jungian theory and Jeremy Taylor’s approach, incorporating dream education, expressive arts, active imagination and voice dialog work to experience significant dream elements more fully. Please join us online for deep fun.

Befriending Ourselves through Fairy Tales
Are you under the spell of self-abandonment, of overworking, over-caretaking? Have you been crowned Queen of Self Denial? We have been conditioned to fear self-attunement and to embrace self-abandonment. Maybe it’s time to play with mythic symbols like Frankenstein, Dumbling and the Ant and the Grasshopper to challenge the cultural taboo against “selfishness.” By creating our own fairy tales we can listen to what our symptoms are trying to tell us, and break that spell of self-abandonment to reclaim the lost treasures of our true needs. Join us in May 2023 for 6 sessions
