Commencing in February 2009 I am offering a new, untried approach to the theme of biography and personal healing: a part time course that travels from memory to imagination by widening the perspective from ordinary life to the afterlife experience of the soul to create a contemporary ‘Bardo of the West’, a map of the soul in all its diverse experiences. The aim is a total biography that integrates the facts of the past and the imaginal explorations of the future with the help of creative writing, story telling, acting and performance. A major feature is the working with communal imagination (see attached flyer) to liberate personal creativity and access the depth dimension of life.
Cost: $450 per term, ie 8 sessions, concessions available (total course 3 terms, 24 sessions) Availability: Saturday Morning or Monday Evening or Tuesday Evening |
