Encounters With The Soul:

Active Imagination as a Spiritual Practice

 June 1-2, 2012

Discover How to Access and Converse With Your Inner Voices of Destiny

Michael will be leading a two day workshop based on the radical depth psychological work of James Hillman, focusing on his best selling book, The Soul’s Code.

If you are interested in discovering how your ordinary problems and painful emotional symptoms are the conduits to deeper psycho-spiritual insight and transformation, you will want to join us for this informative and interactive experience. Everything you think you know about “spirituality” will be re-examined and re-visioned. Here are some of the issues we will examine and experience:

        • The Acorn Theory: Each soul comes with a unique and innate destiny.

        • Soul-making: What is it and why is it important?

        • Addictions as Avenues to Soul-making: When painful symptoms become allies.

        • Active Imagination: How to dialogue with the Psyche. Learning to ask “Who” instead of “why”?

The retreat will be held at the beautiful waterfront Dumas Bay Center near Federal Way, WA. Registration will begin at 7:30 am on Saturday with breakfast at 8:00, March 3 and we will conclude at 5 pm on Sunday, March 4. The cost is $205.00 including meals, snacks, lodging and the two day workshop. Space is limited, so reserve your spot now by calling Kim Duddy at 206-963-9706, or email: kduddy6@gmail.com. It is not necessary, but if you can, please read Hillman’s book, The Soul’s Code.

World Religions II:

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam

April 12 - May 17, 2012 2012

6:30 PM – 9:30 PM

The evolving human soul requires ideas and experiences from both the Western monotheistic and Eastern polytheistic paradigms. Come and find out why and how they work together for your psycho-spiritual growth toward The Good. Civil Liberties groups are moving to have world religion classes offered as required electives in American high schools? Why? Because the key issues of international and national concern are based on understanding religious issues - Palestine, Syria, Afghanistan, etc. In addition to these points, you will discover: - How Judaism, Christianity and Islam are united in Abraham and what that means to the soul's development. - How the Western religions can offer an internal state of sprituality apart from an external Religious State. - Islam is in the middle of a natural transition period, moving from a literal to a symbolical approach to the Qur'an.


 

HOW TO CREATE AND INTEND

YOUR PURPOSEFUL VISION

May 26-27, 2012

Microbiologist Jonas Salk noted that humans are unique in the world of living organisms. Only humans, says Salk, come into this world “curiously unfinished” and without a clear purpose. Humans must discover their distinctive internal inclinations, and then fashion them into an individual purpose. This retreat will assist you to do just that. You will go home with a concise purpose statement.

In addition, this workshop will give you four practical and useful tools to do the work of intending your purpose once you have clarified it. Modern scientific research is confirming that our thoughts are not only creative, but literally have the ability to synchronize with external objects and draw them toward us! British physicist Rupert Sheldrake and many others are collecting a growing body of evidence that reveal the influence of mental intentions as they relate to influencing the way we invite or repel external phenomena like wealth, jobs and relationships.

COME AND DISCOVER:

· How to construct a single sentence that captures your life purpose.

· How to identify what you REALLY want, and what REALY wants you.

· Four simple tools you can use daily to intend and attract your purpose.

· How experiments demonstrate the attraction of matter by Mind.

· How ancient mythologies and religions support the science of intention.

Changing Your Life for Good

                            May 01, 2012 6:30pm - Jun 12, 2012 9:30pm

This class looks at change in a fresh and dynamic way. Based on James Prochaska’s book, Changing for Good, this class will examine and help you apply his revolutionary model, Six Stages of Change, which is currently being used by the National Cancer Institute and health organizations around the globe. Prochaska and his team developed this model by studying hundreds of people who actually made long-term changes of unwanted habits, thoughts and feelings. The best processes and techniques of over 400 psychological theories are condensed to their most useful features for permanent change. In addition, we will include New Thought practices and Depth Psychological skills which view our “addictions” and “challenges” as living, purposeful teachers seeking to expand our consciousness through their recurring cravings and compulsions.
