| This theme workshop in the Sensations Series is designed to do justice to the complexity of anger. It is packed with tried and tested procedures for getting a handle on anger. A guiding assumption is that we need to be able to choose how we communicate it. To do this requires a first hand bodily knowledge of its workings. There will be opportunities to practice the expression of anger in an assertive mode as an alternative to exploding in a damaging hurtful way or imploding into passive aggression. Cultivating expressive capacities will be balanced by a focus on anger management, both of your own and other's anger. Experiential learning during the workshop will be reinforced by copious handouts for your ongoing use. Exercises will be both verbal and non-verbal, silent and noisy. Methods will include movement, writing, visualisation, drawing, expressive roleplay, somatic techniques, structured anger discharge and group discussion. |

| Tender Toughness with Silke Ziehl 27/28 September 08 Saturday & Sunday 10am - 6pm, £110 |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| This weekend we shall explore the issue of boundaries and how they affect our relations with others and ourselves. When we learn to recognize and to respect our own and other peoples boundaries about space and time, about what we consider negotiable and what we really will not allow in our private space, then we learn tender toughness the toughness of clearly standing for our important boundaries and the tenderness of making very real contact across the now clear boundaries. When we trust ourselves and others, when we clearly speak of what we will or will not do, then our longing for contact and connection will show itself and we will again reach out to others with interest and curiosity and a sense of safety and excitement, and can be reached by others too. |
