Beyond Therapy - Living in Process

LIVING IN PROCESS
The purpose of Living in Process® retreats is to learn about a way of life that focuses on healing and offers a path for spiritual growth. We have an opportunity to live in process and in community while learning to confront our addictive processes and behaviors. Our focus is on holistic healing.

Anyone involved in their own life journey who wants to participate in a supportive learning and healing environment is welcome. Recovering addicts, their friends and families, survivors of incest and abuse, healthcare professionals, ministers, addiction counselors, and other individuals involved in personal growth may find Intensive Workshops helpful in their choice and ability to feel and to live more fully and joyfully.

Participants often comment on the respectful, non-controlling, non-judgmental environment they experience and the network of support they have developed from participating in Intensives. Healing and transformation are possible!

Living in Process® work is not therapy, nor is it based on the scientific model out of which therapy comes. It is a way of living that is based on holistic science, rather than the limited technological model of western culture. Connected with traditions of native cultures, it is community-based, participatory, safe, respectful, and spiritually-grounded.

The Intensive Workshops Offer:

• An opportunity to create and participate in a respectful community environment where work on personal and professional issues proceeds at our own pace;
• New learning and conceptualizing: We focus on being present to ourselves and others in the moment, owning our own "process," and working through past or present feelings that have been denied, suppressed, or distorted. We can experience deep process work in a safe environment, and learn about honoring our internal process moment to moment;
• Opportunities to notice and name addictive behaviors and processes, see how they affect our lives, and support new levels of honesty and recovery for ourselves and others. We will see how we can use addictive behaviors to avoid our feelings, escape from intimacy and knowing our own truth, and block our spirituality and creativity;
• Exploring spirituality, living in community, and honoring our internal process as alternatives to isolation and operating out of the addictive system and relationships;
• Learning about mechanistic science and western culture, holistic science and native cultures;
• A flexible agenda congruent with Living in Process that includes time for relaxation and reflection, group sharing, 12-Step meetings, play and laughter in a quiet, peaceful setting.
