WORKSHOP -- NATALISM IN THERAPY: AN INTRODUCTION

NATALISM: CREATIVE EXPRESSION OF BIRTH MEMORY (1 DAY INTRODUCTION FOR CLINICIANS AND THOSE FAMILIAR WITH BIRTH AND PERINATAL ISSUES.

Natalism is the symbolic manifestation of Pre and Perinatal experience into art, myth and ritual. This one-day workshop will explore birth and prenatal memory as seen in personal metaphor through creative expression with art, writing and experiential birth regression. Art is a very powerful tool for uncovering very early and deep psychological material of both negative and positive nature. The goal of the work is to gain creative techniques for expression, understanding and healing of birth and prenatal experiences, which have influenced negative life patterns.
