What we offer
Programs of self-expression for individuals and groups, to guide people through a process of transformation activating their individual and collective resources.
All programs are offered in English, Italian, Spanish and French.
ANALYTIC SELF EXPERIENCE
Is your life taking an unexpected turn? Are you looking for new stimuli, creative insights, a new beginning? Do you feel dissatisfied with your job/relations, deprived of drives, will and desires? Do you feel stressed, anxious, moody, vulnerable? Uncertain about your potential, goals and motivations? Do you question yourself, your gender and identity? There are moments in life when too many uncertainties make us feel as if we were “lost in the wood”, with no clue about what to do. Those transitional stages are often perceived as existential crisis, bringing anxiety and uncertainty about the future; but they can also be good occasions to start a journey of self-discovery of our inner potential.
Working together in an analytical setting we will use expressive techniques like biographical narratives, drawings, fairytales, sandplay, giving space to a journey of discovery as well as recovery informed by your emotions, dreams, anxieties as part of experiencing and learning from new life circumstances.
ARGONAUTS
One of the most fascinating myths of antiquity is the expedition of the Argonauts in search of the Golden Fleece, which celebrates the deeds of the most extraordinary talents of ancient Greece, such as Heracles, the invincible hero, Orpheus, the cantor of the gods, the Dioscuri twins Castor and Pollux, and many others. What did the fifty heroes have to prove when they sailed in the Argo ship to Colchis, a distant land at the edge of the world, to follow Jason, a reckless young man without a kingdom, whose only merit was to have a beautiful boat and a destiny? All of them were already famous; many of them left a kingdom, a family, many certainties; some of them did not return. But all of them were driven by the same urgency to set out, to do the deed, to challenge destiny.
The Argonauts program is aimed at people who are going through a period of transition in their personal and/or professional lives and who wish to turn these challenges into opportunities for the discovery of inner resources and a heightened awareness of their potential.
DREAM JOURNEYS
If you believe in the creative power of dreams, if you think that dreams can be a resource to change our view of reality at such a dramatic turning point in our society, if you wonder if we have lost the bonds and collective values that held us together, then you might be interested in this proposal.
The Dream Journey is a proposal that comes from an experience of sharing dreams during the COVID pandemia in 2020. Social Dreaming combines the evocative power of dreams with the need to find new points of reference, new maps to move more easily in the new territory that is emerging.
The programme of the Dream Journeys can be seen as a safe space to overcome a collective trauma or, more simply, as a tool to deepen, together with other fellow travellers, the need to understand where we are going thanks to dreams, to combine the capacity for introspection with a collective feeling and to nourish the desire for a different kind of sociality, different forms of intimacy.
LISTENING POST LABS
How do we deal with fear in times of uncertainty?
How do we support each other?
How do we prepare ourselves and restore our capacity to think?
Over the past two years, the dramatic global impact of the pandemic has led people living and working in organisations, businesses and communities to question themselves and the fragile balance of our global society.
To become more aware of our responsibility for a sustainable world, to repair our fractured connections with nature and the environment, we need to reimagine our future together, listening to each other and adopting a multi-polar perspective.
The program of Listening Post Labs address these issues by combining different techniques with tailor-made projects for organisations and communities to mend broken relationships with the social environment and develop new perspectives for sustainable organisational change.
