Jungian
Sandplay activates the realm of imagination and creativity and
allows the unconscious to be expressed in a symbolic form. It is this
symbolic world of Sand yray that invites the possibility of an
expanded dimension of consciousness. Sandplay encourages another way
of knowing, the nonverbal and experiential way that facilitates the
expression of the archetypal, symbolic and interpersonal world as
well as our everyday outer reality.
This
is an introduction to the skills, models and approaches to using
Sand yray work and how it complements individuals own lives and
situationz. By the end of the weekend participants will have:-
- Developed an understanding of the use of Sand play for themselves
- Considered the theories relating to symbolic play
- Experienced the use of figurines and the Sandt ]lay as a containing space
- Explored how to use Sand tray work to compliment your own life and situations

Attention
is one of the most fascinating and mysterious aspects of our
existence as human beings. Wego through most of our life without
paying much attention to attention. If you’re reading these words
right now then you’re paying attention. But what does that mean?
The challenge we are faced with is to try to understand how our
attention works and to improve our own attention skills.
Cultivating
mindfulness is not an easy task, but with persistence and practice we
can make significant changes in the way we use our attention. We can
improve concentration, our intimate relationships, our spiritual
practice, and our overall mental health. What’s at stake is nothing
less than our experience of life itself.
"We've
shown that mindfulness can be reliably and validly measured and has a
significant role to play in mental health," --Kirk
Warren Brown, visiting assistant professor of psychology.
Baic Principles:
- That which you pay attention to grows
- Psychological suffering is generally associated with a heightened degree of self-focused attention
- When you wish to shift your attention, lead with the body, not the mind
- Different tasks/situations require different attention skills (e.g. single pointed attention vs. broad attention)
- Your experience of life is not based on your life, but on what you pay attention to
