"I
have followed the evolving narrative of the Theater
of the Soul workshops with deep appreciation and understanding
of the depth of the work that is being done, and the trust and sharing
and fun that is an essential part of the process. It is good theater in
the round; every woman is a member of the troupe and a member of the audience,
and all are undoubtedly affected. To bring the deep feminine, which is
spiritual, into an embodied experience, using dreams, movement, music
and ritual, is beautiful, creative, and blessed soul work!"

How
can we derive meaning
and comfort from our physical pain and emotional distress?
How can we bring our dearest dreams to life?
According to Marion
Woodman and Carl Jung, we can only find meaning in our deepest pain, and
realize our most cherished dreams, when we unite body and spirit in the
theater of the soul.
Whenever we bring together, on the shimmering stage of Soul, the alchemical
elements of storytelling, dreamwork, voice, movement, and artistic creation,
we can experience ourselves in new and inspiring ways. The time we spend
in the Soul's sacred theater can teaches us how to ignite our deep creativity,
which in turn enables us to transform our pain into lasting wisdom. This
is deeply healing work, work that encourages us to celebrate our unique
essence and bring our dearest dreams to life.
Based on the life work of Marion Woodman, we have crafted a workshop to
help you draw on the deep resources and potent creativity that await you
in the theater of your own soul. |

Please
note: All of the Theater of the Soul facilitators have
completed, under the supervision of Jungian analyst Marion Woodman, body
movement specialist Mary Hamilton, and voice specialist Ann Skinner, a four
year apprenticeship based on the BodySoul Rhythms intensives, from
which the Theater of the Soul workshops have been derived.
The two programs have in common their theoretical bases, general structure,
and some specific content. Their differences primarily reflect the unique
personalities and professional backgrounds of the facilitators -- as well
they should since, after all, each of us are the lessons that we teach.
