| Summary: | A core premise of Generative Change work is that "everything contains the potential of its opposite/complement." The more we increase one side of a complement the more we increase the potential of its opposite/complement. When we seek to bring more of something into the world (light), we simultaneously invite its opposite (shadow). In fact, we often want to bring more of something (light) because we know its opposite (darkness). Having only one side of a complement creates imbalance. This is frequently the case in psychotherapy, where the complement to a client's desired change shows up as a form of resistance. This workshop will show that when clients can be supported to hold both sides of a seeming conflict or struggle from a generative state, surprising new possibilities emerge. |
