Timeless understandings and practices developed by Gestalt Therapy founders, Fritz and Laura Perls in the 1940s, are more relevant now than ever. Getting in touch with not only our 5 senses but our 6th sense as well, begins to expand our inner being and knowing. Most of us have been raised to distract ourselves from these inner awarenesses. We'll explore these distractions and then put them in a big box….And then we'll hang out in the here and now for awhile…without an agenda!
Time willing, we'll explore the Creative Void, the Impasse, a phenomenon we all face repeatedly, often out of awareness. This state of mind occurs when we feel stuck between here and there, or this and that.
So come join us for an experiential evening of learning and fun.
Cyndy Sheldon, MSW, who studied with the founders of Gestalt Therapy, Fritz and Laura Perls, began the original Gestalt Institute of San Francisco in the 60s and taught there as well as in Europe for many years. Later in Arizona, while learning from traditional Navajos, she deepened her appreciation for these timeless understandings. Now she is eager to share the integration of these experiences with those who are curious and interested.
