Aligning with Change A seminar in the series of The Psychology of Nations

Date: Sa 21 - Su 22 February
Time:10am -5pm
Fee: $US 300.-

How do I as an individual influence collective happenings? What is the relationship between individual emotions and mass events?
An introduction to the psychology of nations and the power of each individual, and with emphasis on how the individual can have a constructive or destructive impact on larger events.
A step by step discovery of the power of conscious choice and my influence on collective events.

A whole nation, comprised of people of different skin color and cultural backgrounds, chose to change the direction of the US by electing a person of different values than the previous leader.
The Afro- American group in the US fullfilled a dream when the nation consciously chose to elect an Afro-American as president and moved from being victimized into a position of strength.
The rest of the world felt great relief, seeing that change is possible, even more so seeing an Afro-American being elected

How do these individual choices impact you, the nation, the world?
We will explore our gift of the power of conscious choice that makes us an agent for change in order to understand the psychological laws and dynamics as well as the effects of conscious choice and its influence on the whole. What is my role as an individual embedded in a collective?

Dr, Margret Rueffler is a transpersonal psychologist and has explored the psychology of nations for the past 25 years. She teaches internationally and is a consultant and advisor to several institutions on how to introduce values into existing projects. For the past five years her activities have been focused in Indonesia on the prevention of collective violence.

The seminar/workshop will be based on the transpersonal psychological approach that emphasizes honoring the "Self" as the source of innate potential and acknowledging the "Self" in other individuals, groups and nations. We will use meditation, discussion, reflection, guided imagery, land ecture to explore these topics in depth.
