Deep Imagery Evenings: First Tuesdays

Frank Coughlan — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 01:41:45 +0000

Tomorrow, Tuesday Nov. 4th is the next imagery evening. (Third Thursday evenings continue as usual.)
I just want to let you know that this new, additional Imagery evening has begun and will continue on

The First Tuesday of Each Month
at
10 Hampson St.,
Kelvin Grove
QLD 4059

from 7-9pm downstairs.
Free First evening. $20 per evening subsequently. $10 if on pension, unwaged etc.

This Imagery group is suitable for beginners or anyone who just wants to drop in occasionally.
Imagery is one of the most sensitive and powerful means of inner exploration. One can regard it almost as a form of meditation but having slightly more structure. Fortunately for many of us, imagery work requires less discipline than meditation.
Imagery work is often fun as well as being able to take you to the cutting edge of your growth.
Guided relaxation, simple instructions and optional group sharing are features of the evening.
I hope you will be able to join us.
Also, I would very much appreciate if you could forward this information to anyone you think might benefit from it.
All Welcome.

Imagery Festival 2009

Frank Coughlan — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 04:35:51 +0000

The Australian Festival of Imagery for 2009 will be held in Camp Bornhoffen on the long weekend, 2nd to 5th May 2009. This means an extra day of workshops, by popular demand. Looking forward to seeing you there. We will post information about workshops here as it becomes available.

Starting First Tuesday Imagery

Frank Coughlan — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 04:29:54 +0000

The third Thursday Imagery group has been running for more than ten years now and it has evolved into a group where deep sharing is possible among the regular participants. I have decided to run another group on the first Tuesday each month to facilitate people who may be new to Imagery. Anyone may attend these new Tuesday evenings (at the same venue). A phone call or email would be appreciated if you intend to attend. Frst evening is free. $20 per evening for subsequent evenings.

2008 Australian Festival of The Animals

Festival of Imagery

11-13 April 2008

Many appproaches to personal growth involve imagery. Imagery work, as opposed to problem-solving approaches in counselling and therapy, tends to rely on a creative impulse from within that will heal or enable growth simply by trusting it.

The festival offers Deep Imagery workshops and other workshops using imagery in their process. For example, a Collage workshop facilitates a participant to create an image on paper. Or a Dream workshop obviously works with dreams. This year, a workshop in Family Constellations creates for some participants a dynamic energy image of their families. This is done by a participant nominating others to become significant family members in his or her story. Powerful underlying scripts come to the surface and deep changes are possible for the participant. The family constellations workshop at the festival offers an opportunity to explore this process. People who think it might benefit them can enroll in a full two-day workshop at a later date with the facilitator, Yildiz. Our Drum-Making workshop is less clearly linked to imagery except in the sense that rhythm can be considered a type of image.

But hey, who cares, the opportunity to make your own drum and learn to play it under the tutelage of Tunde Solanke is a good enough reason to be included in the festival line-up.
