Few images have received more attention in the past decades than that of the Other. But how do we understand the Other nowadays, in times when globalization and technological progress allow for a myriad of perspectives to converge in one same place? And even more important: how do we experience the Other? What exactly happens when we face what is different from us? Read More About Conference...
Durante las últimas décadas, pocas imágenes han recibido más atención que la de lo Otro. Pero hoy en día, en tiempos en que la globalización y los avances tecnológicos hacen que una multitud de perspectivas distintas converjan en un mismo lugar, ¿cómo entendemos al Otro? Y aún más importante: ¿cómo lo experimentamos? ¿Qué es exactamente lo que acontece cuando nos encontramos con lo que es distinto a nosotros?

Ernest & Kathryn Rossi Workshop: How We Change the Brain to Change the Culture: Facilitating Creative Consciousness with Art, Beauty, & Truth in Psychotherapy
Lee Lawson, The Journey
Most people are startled to learn how Art, Beauty, and Truth can turn on gene expression and brain growth during creative experiences. It is profound to realize that our highest and most inspired states of consciousness can facilitate optimal gene expression and brain plasticity, while stress and trauma can distort and suppress it.
Learn how to facilitate the 4-stage creative process for optimizing of gene expression, brain plasticity, problem solving, and mind-body healing. Join us for a weekend training for psychotherapists and the general public learning how to change your brain for health and well being.
Location: Zimmer Conference Center, Ojai, CA.
Conference Registration Fee: $295
(All Meals are included: Friday Dinner; Saturday Breakfast/Lunch/Diner; Sunday Breakfast/Brunch)

Those Women!
Pat Berry, Lyn Cowan, Christine Downing, Nor Hall, Ginette Paris, Hendrika de Vries
Those Women is a conference to honor women whose work is foundational to Depth, Archetypal, and Jungian Psychology: Pat Berry, Lyn Cowan, Christine Downing, Nor Hall, Pat Katsky, Ginette Paris, Mary Watkins, and Marion Woodman
Their writings and teachings unleashed our imaginations, steeped our lives in symbolic understanding and guided many of us in trusting our emerging feelings and knowings. The personal and collective movement of psyche is seen and valued by the questions they pose, the observations each explores and the unique challenges to which each says "yes."
 Kathy Keler, Envoi , 2000. 42" x 80", oil and alkyd on wood; 2 sections |
The intellectual heft and heart-felt contributions of these women adds to the shift of cultural consciousness, laying down a legacy for all who are to come. This conference is to honor the many contributions made by these women. More importantly, it is to hear their current thinking, insights and perspectives, and learn how we might imagine carrying the best of ourselves forward in an ever changing world.

This weekend will be a creative, fun, innovative, and probably a bit wild, as we honor Those Women!
Location: Hotel Mar Monte, Santa Barbara, CA.
