Workshop Outline: This is an invitation to spend a day dreaming, imaging, imagining and finding ways through the narrow door into the unconscious. We face the paradox of BEING and DOING simultaneously…following our Totemic animals and soul guides into the dream whilst finding structure, language, logic and approaches in order, according to the Jungian James Hillman to “…BEFRIEND yet not strip-mine the dreamworld…”.
We will approach the Dream via Aboriginal Mythology and the “Dreaming”. Link this to current research in Neuro-psychology underpinned by the theories of Louise Cozalino and Iain Mc Gilchrist, experience ways of embracing the archetypes which allow themes, complexes, constellations and images to surface delicately and safely.
Like Alice in Wonderland we can find the “rabbit hole” into the now, the subterranean chute which propels us into the underworld of the unconscious…here engage with those polarities of being…too big, too small….too fast, too slow…too soft, too hard…allowing the symbols to speak and lead us through the archetypes to those aspects of our subtle souls which we wish to jostle into the light.
