A relational approach of “Self” in our times of threat and isolation

[City College, Thessaloniki]. Whenever we say “me” or “I am” we immediately produce a “you” or a “you are”, like the word “cold” implies “hot” and “springtime” implies “fall”. How this sense of being a unique “me” able to connect with a unique “you” is affected by the huge and sudden changes and threats in our covid-19 days?

The titles of each one of the 3 webinars, are: 
1. What is the “Shadow” and who is the “inner child”.The relational self. Definition of the terms in the title. Our conscious and non-conscious parts: rivals or co-operators? The neuro-biological “factory” of our experiences and our Shadowed “lands”. Shadow: origins and “unfinished business”.
2. What to do with our Shadow?Why we cannot “understand” or “discover” the Shadow. Self-organisation in systems theory and awareness development of the energy of our Shadow. Shadow (dark) and mind (light): reaching beyond the polarity. The “paradox theory of change” and our creative adjustments to welcome the Shadow.
3. Shadows in everyday life.Attempts to isolate the Shadow. The Shadow of relationships. The Shadow of families. The complementary Shadows. Examples of  Shadowed “models” in our everyday events.

Excerpt form the introductory note: …A very brief reference to some basic Tomatis’s principles is one part of this webinar. Seeing the sense of hearing as a basis on which can be developed the skill of “listening to the world” is a second part. And a third part are some introductory methodological practices to develop this skill, which is a kind of “art” supporting our quite forgotten need of the broader art to be truly “alive.

From the introductory note:
…In this webinar we shall see this so important midlife phase mainly on its deep, existential roots and not so much on advices about “what to do” or “how to overpass”.
