Introductory Workshops
The intention of these 1-3 day workshops is to offer a “taster” of Core Process Psychotherapy to people who might be considering applying for the Foundation Course or theMA inMindfulness-Based Psychotherapeutic Practice. The workshops include talks, discussions and experiential practice.
These introductory workshops are offered in various locations, usually but not exclusively, in places where the Foundation Course is offered. This includes Devon, London, Scotland and Ireland but also Switzerland and other national and international locations depending on interest and staff availability. They are usually non-residential, except in Devon where they are mostly run from the Institute, and they last for one to three days.

Karuna Institute
Core Process Psychotherapy
Low Cost Introductory Workshops in London
Are rooted in
Buddhist awareness and Mindfulness practices
The domain of the psychological is form,
And the domain of the Spiritual is emptiness.
Core Process Psychotherapy (CPP) integrates Western psychological and psychodynamic understandings with Buddhist psychology and mindfulness traditions.
CPP views awareness and the relational field as primary vehicles for change. These workshops introduce the work and the skills that open and sustain this awakening-in-relationship.
Each workshops is an event in itself and are also designed as a series of days which works along the fault lines of the psychological and the spiritual.
"This being human is a guest house: every morning a new arrival." Rumi

Awakening in Relationship: Being in Relationship
Exploring the nature of our being by bringing a continuity
of awareness, stillness a and silence to self and other.
Awareness-in-relationship generates awakening-in-relationship.
"How can one cell generate the billions and billions of cells I now am?
We are impossible but for the fact that we are." R D Laing
Saturday 10th July 2010
Integration making friends with enemies
The potential to heal the fragmented in us by
being with our relational contingencies and conditions.
As we bring awareness to our inner and outer process, we discover how our anxiety and projections
fixes things and how a sense of cohesive being brings fluidity to our lives.
Saturday 2nd Oct 2010
Contact and Intimacy: A path to love and freedom
Presence is about contact and contact has the potential for intimacy.
In this workshop we will listen closely to self and other. Awakening awareness, we deepen into our different layers. As we deepen, we learn that life is open and that freedom is inherent at the Core of our being.
