All Lifespan Development E. Martin Walker's Groups
30 years of group experience and research
Starting with Ruth Cohen's "Theme Centered Group Interaction," I have run and designed groups for over 25 years. I created a group method for supporting multiple meditation practices, done original group research on cultural identity and intergroup relations at City University of New York and Universidad Iberoamericana(Mexico, D.F.), ran groups for male survivors of childhood sexual abuse, and contributed to the creation of group "Social Dreaming,"(socialdreaming.com) in several published articles(W.G.Lawrence, Editor, Karnak Books). I currently run time limited well-aging groups called "The Body of Mindfullness."
Inner Media: comparative meditation practices
All schools of meditation present meditators with a common set of psychological factors which can either enhance or hamper their practices. The group provides a safe and supportive environment in which expand and deepen the practice of meditation by exploring the cultural, psychological, and medical implications which arise from an active commitment to this art.
