The Essentials of Psychosynthesis – Auckland

The “essentials” 6-day course brings insight into how we relate to our experiences, each other, and to the world.

In a supportive group environment, simple and powerful experiential tools give participants new perspectives on their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual experiences. We discover the healing path of acceptance and integration, leading to synthesis: choosing who we may be.

As practical and applicable outcomes participants find:

• new life skills and techniques
• renewed purpose
• reduced tension or overwhelm
• new possibilities

Who Might Be There?

Expect a diverse range of people from different paths. Some are curious, seeking a greater sense of wholeness or fulfilment in life. Others are already involved in personal development, perhaps with a psychosynthesis practitioner. Some may be counsellors, coaches, or teachers, seeking a more inclusive or evolutionary context for their work. Others may be looking to find better ways of managing stress or burnout from professional, community work or social change activities.

The Essentials can be undertaken as a standalone personal development training, or as a pre-requisite course to follow on with the Certificate in Psychosynthesis Integration.
