EABP 2018 – Berlin
Bodynamic Workshops Sept 6-9, 2018
Dependencies and Independence – cancelled
In the individualistic valued part of the world we live in, it is a challenge to feel deeply connected. It is a presumption which many have, that in order to have deep connection one has to be dependent and at the same time dependency seems like a bad thing. For the therapist, it is a challenge when their client strives for independence and at the same time that client cannot connect deeply.
How can one differentiate between deep connection and independence? How do you combine the two? Through lecture and bodywork we will go on a journey through these themes.
Presented by:

The Shy Moments – cancelled
What is it that happens with us when we get wet hands, red cheeks, a little foggy in our heads? Or get all pale, chills and feel so wrong? In this workshop you will get to know how to use these moments as a resource in our everyday life and how important it is to address it with our clients. The Bodynamic method will be used to address these questions, through theory and practice.

Awakening the Body Ego
In this workshop we want to gain a stronger access to our bodily resources through our own specific and personal sensations and movements, in order to experience our Body Ego more directly and joyfully.
To this end I will introduce you to the Bodynamic model of Ego Aspects: a model that has the Body Ego at its core which is the „carrier“ of all our self related body experiences as well as of our emotions.
Bit by bit we have been losing the natural capacity to sense our bodies as we were conditioned by the society around us. To disregard, devalue and mistrust our own bodily sensations as well as through painful traumatic experiences. The consequence is a fundamental alienation from ourselves and from others.
In the course of this workshop we will do specific exercises to reawaken the natural joy and forces of self regulation of our Body Ego.

Blossoming Synapses (theory/practice workshop)
This is a workshop focused on connectedness as a vital force of life. We will experience different types of connection, through breathing, body movement- dance and creative expression. Training ourselves in mutual connection with dignity, in life and in therapy, we develop skills and resources to deal with alienation. The dynamic of connectedness is the source of co-creating new synapses with ourselves, others and cosmos.
