Active Imagination in Movement – Holding the Tension of the Opposites in a Changing World: Inner & Outer

Tina Stromsted (CGJISF) & David Gerbi (IIJP)

The body is deeply intertwined with the health of the psyche, the spirit, community, and the earth. Analysts can engage the connection between body and psyche as a central clinical tool. By using the body to access and express the imagination, we may discover inner-directed movement as a way to bridge the realms of conscious and unconscious, instinct and spirit, affect and image, memory and emergence, self and other. Our day-long pre-conference workshop will interweave theoretical, experiential, cultural and clinical material - with special attention to the living body in analytic practice. Together we’ll engage and hold the tension between the opposites toward a new level of unity through dreams, the body, and relationship.
