Registration Process

The Transformational Arts Program is a generative container for initiating a higher/ next level of consciousness and purposefulness in life. It supports you when you are in, or ready for a significant life transition in order to generate body-mind-spirit wholeness and empowered compassion in the world. The program utilizes 5 core sources for invoking this initiation:
Voice Dialogue - You will learn and practice Voice Dialogue and develop proficiency in facilitating others using Voice Dialogue. In addition to the training that is embedded in the program, you will be linked with a regional, senior Voice Dialogue facilitator to do regular Voice Dialogue sessions with through the program. In addition, you'll meet twice monthly via conference call for an on-going Voice Dialogue dream seminar with other participants. In year two, after you've learned how to facilitate Voice Dialogue, as much for your own inner process as for helping others, you will be encouraged to attend one or more Voice Dialogue Practicums. Whether one aspires to become a Voice Dialogue facilitator professionally or not, it is very helpful to learn how to, and to practice facilitating others to deepen one's own Aware Ego Process.
Dream Work - You'll learn more ways to work with your dreams, feeling how the currents of Psyche move between dream and waking life. Part of this will occurs in the core program and part will happen in an ongoing dream group.
Meditation Practice - You will develop a regular, basic meditation practice that supports the development of the Aware Ego Process.
Movement Practice - You will develop a regular contemplative movement practice (such as yoga, tai chi, qui-gong, Akido, ecstatic dance, etc.) that supports conscious mind-body awareness.
Archetypal Studies - You will learn basic literacy with archetypal images to support working with sleeping and waking dreams and for recognizing archetypal patterns as they reveal themselves in life. You'll learn through teachings, assigned readings, group dream work and being in nature.
Expressive Arts - You will choose one or more expressive, primarily non-verbal arts (such a working in clay, paints, collage, sculpture, drawing, or music) to enlist and express non-rational dimensions of psyche.
