Individual care givers have diverse beliefs, philosophical ideas, and spiritual views upon which they rely for guidance, decision making, and treatment interventions. Contradicting philosophies hover in the background and influence relationships between policy makers, care givers and affected families.

A Magic Theater of Dreams
Dreams are like a magic theater that sums up our experience
in a series of dramatic (or comic), often cryptic scenes. We
will explore dreaming starting with its early use in
psychoanalysis, Jungian analysis, and early dreambody work,
through the dreaming-up process and non-local dream
fields. Emphasis will be on discovering the process of
nighttime dreams in waking experience. We will experiment
with symbolic, structural and shamanic approaches to
dreamwork using theoretical presentations, demonstrations,
and experiential exercises.
