Composing Your Life (In-Person)

Discover how to awaken each morning anticipating what you are creating rather than worrying about what you fear. Support yourself through life's rough and unpredictable changes – career, relationships, divorce, and grief. Based on the instructor's book The Pebble and the Canyon: Reflections on Composing Your Life, this workshop will help us discover practical ways to use our creative potential on a daily basis via guided imagery, active imagination, journaling, and other exercises. We will also learn practices to reduce stress and encourage healing.

*The Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council (TBHEC) has stopped pre-certifying ANY Continuing Education or Professional Development for mental health providers. The Jung Center cannot guarantee that the programs we provide will qualify for continuing education or Professional Development, nor can any other agency. The Jung Center uses high educational standards when selecting to designate events as "potentially appropriate for CEs", and in evaluating the outcomes of our educational services, and we believe them to meet the requirements of state licensing bodies.
