The Life Myth: Discovering Your Main Dream of Life
With Bill Say
July 9 in Berkeley CA
“So, in the most natural way, I took it upon myself to get to know my myth, and this I regarded as my task of tasks.” C.G. Jung
Our life myths, or main dreams of life, are not necessarily apparent to us, but once we discover them, we often find greater clarity about our lives, direction, main struggles and gifts, and meaning to our existence.
In this workshop you’ll have the opportunity to explore main dreaming doorways that can give you access to your life myth, play with role theory and symbolic thinking to better grasp this main dream, and learn how to engage with the life myth in your everyday lives.
Bill Say, M.A., is an adjunct faculty member of the California Institute of Integral Studies, the Wright Institute, JFK University and at the Process Work Institute. Bill is a Mindell Process Work Diplomate. He is completing the book, The Life Myth: Discovering, Following and Living it. His website is: www.billsay.com
Time: 10am-5pm
Fee: sliding scale: $60-90
Location: Wildcat Studio, 2525 Eighth Street, #15. Berkeley CA 94710

Innerwork course for Practitioners
November 21, 28, December 5, 12 & 19
Online course through the Processwork Institute of Hawaii
With Bill Say
Practitioners of group facilitation, therapy, teaching, parenting, and other kinds of work with others obviously need to be engaged in external ways and actions to fulfill their roles. Less obvious, but arguably, equally important is the innerwork that helps us carry out our practices in optimal ways.
What happens to us internally when we’re under critical attack, in a moment of our own countertransference, are faced with a resistant client, or are otherwise triggered? And then, how can we work with these internal processes so that we can better meet the situation at hand?
In contrast to relationship or group work, innerwork can be seen as the myriad ways how individuals can work internally with their own experiences. The approach offered in this series is based on the Process Work of Arnold Mindell.
In this five part webinar course, you’ll be introduced to theory and practices that focus upon the following areas:
*Useful inner work tools when working with others.
*Inner work when triggered or in a complex.
*As helpers or facilitators, we may find ourselves under attack by an outer critic, escalated client or by a disturber in a group.
* How to notice and work with the experience of being “dreamed up”--having become part of our client’s process– in the moment and tools and techniques that allow us to make this experience useful.
*Assisting others in their own inner work.
