What to Expect

Guided meditation will be the main focus of the program. There will be ample opportunity to ask questions and share whatever you feel comfortable with. There will be no pressure to do so; passive participation is perfectly fine.

Separation of children from their caregivers often goes unhealed and impacts our adult mental health and attachment security. In this course, we will do guided meditations to process and heal early separations and the “abandonment and instability schema”. 

This course is a 3 hour course. We will focus on doing the guided meditations on healing separation and abandonment. Lectures will be kept to a minimum. 

Meditations:

  1. Perfect Nurturer Reinforcement (this meditation will help us make the imaginal perfect nurturers serviceable/usable to help us do the healing)
  2. Developing compassion for the suffering of separation and abandonment in the child-self 
  3. Contemplative meditation on understanding symptoms of early separation and abandonment in adulthood
  4. Schema Repartterning Meditation on abandonment and instability schema
  5. Mentalizing the Modes Meditation on abandonment
