Greetings!
 
I warmly invite you to attend this year's Master Class on resistance. How does the sand of resistance become a pearl of change? Please join us for a compassionate examination of this pervasive phenomenon.
 
Respectfully,

We seek profound and sustaining change for ourselves and for our clients, and yet there seems to be a part of us that vehemently insists on resisting.  We dance between the longing for change and the terror of changing.

 

Encountering resistance is natural.  Resistance is where the juice is, a pointer to where the work needs to be done.  In this Master Class we will inquire into the psycho-dynamics, structures, causes and ways that resistance manifests.  We will work on ways to transform the energy of resistance towards the deep change we are seeking.

Purpose
exploring
To examine the nature of, and find insightful ways of working with, the phenomenon of resistance, so that our clients and ourselves are furthered in our development and offerings in the world.
 
Outcomes
  • You will learn how to identify and observe various types of resistance.
  • You will be more skillful in enrolling clients and refining your designs to transform the energy of resistance towards the deep change that is sought.
  • You will develop capacity in your own Way of Being, to encounter, work with and free yourself from resistance.


New Program Format

We added an evening to give more time to the topic at hand, so we will start by connecting as a community, reviewing our precourse assignments, and getting ready for a full day of engaging with the topic.  We will again offer a follow-up teleclass* for those who want to continue their studies.
