Gaudi, Da Vinci and Picasso – Truly Turquoise?
During this interactive event of two and a half hours, the participants are invited to step out of their shoes and put on the thinking of Gaudi, Da Vinci and ultimately Picasso. An art-based experience is facilitated to remind participants not only of their inner child, but how it feels to co-create, to have boundaries […]
Guided Psychedelic Journeys for Personal Growth
Supported psychedelic experiences have great potential, and bring with them great responsibility. In this presentation you’ll hear what success factors can be deduced from the many hundreds of people we have supported at Guided Tripping. We’ll touch on preparation and integration, the varieties of experiences, and go into risks. Interestingly enough those are not so […]
Experimenting: Quantum Physics + Conscious Witness
We invite you to join in an ongoing research project! During an IEC2016 workshop, Diana Claire was inspired with the names for different kinds of witnesses: witnesses who deny, flee, freeze, fight, observe, and witnesses who see beyond polarized patterns of consciousness (now called the Conscious Witness). Many phenomenological experiments using Constellation Work have shown […]
Forgiveness Made Easy
Forgiveness is often misunderstood, sorely underused, yet is an essential integral life practice. Scientific studies confirm the multiple stress-reducing, wellbeing-enhancing benefits of forgiveness, but equally fascinating is our resistance to it and our reluctance to practice it. In this workshop, we’ll explore what forgiveness is, and arguably more importantly, what it isn’t. What are the […]
Developing We-Space via Resonance Workshop
There are poignant moments when viewing a movie when there is a sequence where we feel both joy and sadness. Often times we hide these powerful feelings and turn away from our companion, fearing over-exposure. What if we do not turn away and allow these complex and potent feelings to settle into a resonance to […]

Cultivating Wisdom
Wisdom is desperately needed, yet little understood and rarely practiced. This presentation offers an understanding of wisdom drawn from multiple cultures as well as a collection and analysis of the world’s methods for cultivating it. These methods range from relational (e.g. teachers and community) to intellectual (study and reflection) to contemplative (meditation and visualization) to […]
Dementia seen from multiple perspectives
Have you ever wondered how later and later perspectives would view dementia? Bettina Wichers M.Sc. and Terri O’Fallon Ph.D. developed a research project that asks this question. By bringing together Terri’s research on STAGES and Bettina’s research and practical experience in diagnostics and dementia counseling, this inquiry comes to a more in-depth perspective of how […]
Embodying the Descending Path in Adult Development
The idea that development is a “transcend and include” process is a partial-truth that results in significant collective shadow in the integral diaspora—specifically it supports an ascending bias and subtle arrogance in narratives about adult development. We will see how human development, i.e. all learning, necessarily involves a transcend and *exclude* process. That is, all […]
