Chiron – trauma and healing

The latest research into the dynamics of trauma shows that we are all familiar with trauma, given that one’s very birth is the first traumatising experience. The archetypal trajectory of Chiron requires that at times the emotional-physical tissue of our being is pierced with a poisonous arrow of life. Here, opening up to life and its individuating possibilities involves being wounded in order for the process of individuation to continue and be taken up a level. The healing of our wounds is ultimately possible with the holistic understanding of our unique and inimitable path of development that emerges as progress is made with the individuation process. Any such understanding must include working on ourselves with all four dimensions of our being: the psychic, spiritual, physical-bodily, and the thinking.

The seminar takes place online via Zoom on Saturday from 4.30 to 6.30 pm CEST (TIME CONVERTER). It consists of 90 minutes of theoretical presentation and additional 30 minutes of practical work with the IPAL Method with 2 volunteers from the group.
