Workshops
The 2008 AAP Conference gives you a choice of participating in 8 time slots with a total of 40 workshops, presented by people from the US and other nations. The variety is extensive and diverse, giving a sampling of the richness of psychosynthesis and related fields. Some of the workshops are double in length for increased depth and intensity. Attendance at workshops is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and space may be limited; so to avoid disappointment it is recommended that you register as early as possible.
Most of the presenters have received Psychosynthesis training. However we have also included other presenters whose topics relate to Psychosynthesis. We call these presenters Friends of Psychosynthesis, whose names are followed by a (*). We have also included workshops designed for attendees who have had little or no exposure to psychosynthesis, who would like an introduction to its concepts and practices. These workshops are listed as "Recommended Introductory Course." These are the first courses in the first three rounds, numbered 101, 201 and 301. Unless otherwise stated, workshops are designed for all levels of learners.
Below is a listing of all the workshops offered in the 8 time slots. To see more information about a specific workshop, click on the title of that workshop. To read about all the workshops in a given time slot, click on the heading of that time slot.
