techniques are some of the exercises that will facilitate process in the
workshop.
This work is based on Krippner and
Feinstein’s books/articles on dreams and personal mythology which
draws upon the work of such writers as Carl Jung, Albert Ellis, Joseph
Campbell, Jean Houston, Ram Dass, Dan McAdams, June Singer, and
Stanislav and Christina Grof.
The workshop uses a variety of exercises
(artwork, movement, and Gestalt techniques) are some of the exercises
to demonstrate what's involved in changing a dysfunctional myth into
one that functions well in a person’s life. Learn to identify/work
with personal myth for your healing or to guide your patients,
clients, students.
1) Personal Myths are those beliefs and
worldviews that consciously or unconsciously influence our decisions
and give meaning to our lives. To understand how personal myths are
formed, continue to develop, and shape our lives.
2) Some of these myths are helpful and
some are harmful. Learn to identify influences on participants’
personal myth: biology, culture, interpersonal experiences, and
transpersonal experiences. Learn how the technology of shaping
personal myth would apply to the development of self and others’
personal growth.
3) Learn experientially how to evaluate
and transform dysfunctional myths, beliefs, and worldviews and develop
a set of skills to continue this inner work as well as apply the tools
of this technology to helping others.
Dr. Krippner
offered a great deal of very pertinent information for
psychotherapists, counselors, psychologists in a kind of
compassionate manner. It was possible to work on personal growth and
personal issues while learning new techniques and accomplishing CECs.
This all took place in a beautiful environment with a great support
team.
This has been
a remarkable and joyous experience. Dr. Krippner is a true wisdom
keeper.
Stanley is a
wisdom keeper and a world treasure. In his hands, I have discovered
and grown. He is gentle and great fun! I wouldn’t have missed this
experience for the world. --Adrienne
McDunn
He is so full
of knowledge. Decades of wisdom and tradition pour out of him – a
National Treasure.
This workshop
filled a need in me for some guidance. What better way to get this
guidance than from my own inner myths. I understand more about
myself and in a way I can relate to. The workshop
was well organized and flowed smoothly. Dr. Stanley was/is
wonderful, charming, and vastly knowledgeable. He gave me permission
to do my work. --Myna Mason Reibsen
I love
Stanley’ stories and how he genuinely cares about people.
This has been
a delightfully inspiring workshop experience from a Master who is
extraordinarily gifted in his field. His extensive knowledge
combined with his powerful way to tell stories has been very
engaging for me. I intend to explore the application of the content
of this workshop with the children on the autism spectrum whom I
serve. --Arlene Raphael
Stanley
Krippner is a very wise man with an accepting, compassionate
interpersonal style. This led us through steps to discovering our
personal mythology with grace and good humor. I greatly appreciated
the opportunity to begin this work with him.
Mickey Hart, former
Grateful Dead drummer and Dr. Stanley Krippner, world expert on
extraordinary experiences, reminisce about Stanley's dream telepathy
experiments with Grateful Dead audiences, as well as Mickey recounting
his training with Allah Rahka. Mickey goes on to describe how a
hypnosis session conducted by Stanley influenced his and Bill
Kreutzmann's drumming and Grateful Dead's music.
