About the event
Our life is a journey…
During our journey, we encounter experiences which we use to form belief systems, through which we navigate our lives, making us who we are today.
The Hero’s Journey is based on Joseph Campbell’s realisation that mythologies around the world seem to carry a predictable pattern.
It is the journey that each one of us take when we decide to follow the calling of our heart and our soul. It requires us to take risks and the willingness to go through various challenges. In doing so, we are transformed.
In this workshop we will explore the process of the Hero’s Journey through the creative and experiential method used in Dramatherapy.
***********************************************************************
Activities such as movements, voice projections, role play, acting and story making will be used in this workshop.
Aim of this workshop:
• To become aware of the Hero within (spiritual resilience)
• To enables participants to reach within to activate their hidden
potentials of rising above the challenges they are facing.
• To feel inspired to act on one’s aspirations
* To have fun in the process! Who Should Attend?
• Those who are going through various forms of life transitions
* Those who are feeling 'stuck' and needing to connect to their wiser Self and to be inspired to move forward
