    Riding the Creative Impulse

    OM-sophia

    Each encounter, whether in the world or with something bubbling up from within, is a moment of potential change. Every encounter is filled with tension. Your beliefs about
    tension and change shape both how you experience such encounters and how you deal with them.

    The movement of change is the continual dance of shifting tensions. Tension is neither good nor bad, it is simply what is so. The question is: how can I work harmoniously with the tension of life?

    A great technique that helps to balance … Continue reading

    OM-dr-calvo

    What is psychodrama?.
    Psychodrama is a branch of psychotherapy that is profound and dynamic in restoring health. Essentially it onvolves the representation (dramatisation) of past or future events, real or imagined, internal or external and putting them in the present, in the “here and now”. This is done using certain guidelines and treatment techniques. In the system that I use we also build images, masks, collages, puppets and other techniques, which can achieve the desired objectives in a fun, dynamic and very respectful way.

    In psychodrama there … Continue reading

    Natural conscious food

    OM-pablo-iglesia-3

    If we talk about health and the strategies that we have to care for and improve it, the circle starts and finishes at the mouth, particularly with regards to the food we choose to put in it. A conscious diet, with all that implies, is an essential part of any strategy of wellbeing.

    In the years that I’ve cultivated a healthy eating style, I have taken the time to travel and experience different ways, but have not really found one in particular that I can declare … Continue reading

    QP-Tom

    “The fundamental evolutionary process seems to work everywhere—life or conscious awareness or individuated sub-systems of consciousness are merely the result of a purposeful, self-interacting complex system with memory, evolving its way through a large and diverse set of environmentally constrained possibilities” Tom Campbell

    The meaning of life, the universe and everything – a big question to try and answer, but one that has attracted endless speculation and theory down through the ages. Big theories require a big book to explain them and Tom Campbell’s My Big … Continue reading

Ontology focuses on the idea that ‘who we are’ comes from ‘what we do’ and when we change the way we do things we create more opportunities and … Continue reading
