CURRENT WORKSHOP
A SECOND LOOK AT OUR RELATIONSHIPS - this is a follow up to our January series. All who have experience with Voice Dialogue are welcome. We will continue to look to our dreams, group facilitation, Sitting with Selves meditation and self reflection, at our own relationship patterns, the energetic reality and interaction of Selves, and the teachings they bring us.
WHEN THREE SUNDAYS, FEBRUARY 14, 21, 28, 2021 1:00PM EST / 10:00AM PST - 90 minute sessions WHERE ZOOM COST $195 for the full series "Any relationship can be a teacher, once you know how to take advantage of the teaching it brings.” Drs.Hal and Sidra Stone, originators of Voice Dialogue,The Psychology of Selves Is there anything that brings us more joy, more angst and more confusion then the dynamics of our relationships? A “bad" boss can ruin our days, and sometimes our nights. A difficult parent can lead us into a life long struggle to figure out how to get along with them, and with others who remind us of them. Our friend irritates us, our significant other drives us mad, a new lover starts reminding us of the last one we broke up with. Is there a way to look at these difficulties we encounter with a new set of eyes? Can relationships (not just romantic ones), and the challenges they present, become exciting roads to self knowledge, personal growth, and real empowerment? This group is limited to those who have had experience with voice dialogue and are interested in exploring their own particular relationship patterns. The group is limited in size.

Selves to Sobriety is not affiliated with AA, but it is in line with AA’s understanding of addiction and recovery. Iudita Harlan is the originator and developer of Selves to Sobriety, and Sitting with Selves meditation. She is a senior Voice Dialogue facilitator, with over thirty years experience in private practice, and thirty nine years in recovery. These one hour ZOOM group sessions, lead you through a series of self awareness exercises called Selves to Sobriety, and Sitting with Selves meditation. The Voice Dialogue method is used as a modality. The simple group facilitations are designed to increase your Conscious Contact with parts of yourself, referred to as selves, involved in recovery. You may find that some of these selves are over expressed within your personality, and other selves are under expressed. As polarized inner selves are brought into balance, a centered Sober Consciousness emerges. From this vantage point, conscious choices can be made, thus creating a solid base on which longterm sobriety can rest. Selves to Sobriety facilitations, and Sitting with Selves meditations, provide a profound skill set for enhancing and supporting continuous sobriety. All participants in this group must be in recovery from alcohol and/or drug addiction. Beginners to recovery, people who have relapsed and are back in recovery, people with long term sobriety, all are welcome. Contact Iudita at 216 310 4423 or at iuditaharlan@gmail.com with any questions, or to reserve your place. Individual sessions are always available by appointment. Contact Iudita to schedule.

I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW STUPID YOU ARE!
What were you thinking? You look terrible; too fat, too short, too old, too tall. You are such a loser! What will they think? I can’t believe you did that, said that, felt that, wore that. Sounds like familiar self talk? Welcome to your Inner Critic! How can you feel good and do good, when you have such a harsh inner voice talking to you? The Inner Critic is found in the shadows of many symptoms, such as overeating, over working, stress related illnesses, mental confusion and obsessive thinking. It is the destructive voice that lurks in the unconscious causing feelings of unworthiness, depression and the fueling of addictions. Until now, the Inner Critic, which does indeed cause intense suffering, has been treated as an enemy by most therapeutic systems. Attempts to destroy the Inner Critic only serve to strengthen it. What we resist, persists! Drs. Hal and Sidra Stone are the originators of Voice Dialogue, and authors of the book, Embracing Your Inner Critic. They created a consciousness process that transforms the Inner Critic from a crippling adversary to a productive ally. Iudita uses examples and exercises that will help you learn how to recognize the critic, how to avoid or minimize "critic attacks," and most important, how the Inner Critic can become an intelligent, perceptive and supportive partner in your life. DATES Two Sundays - January 12,19, 2020 CONTACT Iudita Harlan at 216 310 4423 or iuditaharlan@gmail.com Identify, give voice to, and awaken from the tyranny of your Inner Critic. Share in a group with others and normalize your experience. Group size is limited.
