Presented by Svante Björklund; psychosynthesis teacher, therapist, coach and consultant. Exploratory meeting to see, contemplate and maybe have a direct perception of psychosynthesis as a Living System. We will experience theory and dive deeper into competence with the questions Assagioli put to the conference in Quebec 1973: “What constitutes competence in psychosynthesis and how this can be certified, as a general rule, in each of the fields in which psychosynthesis can be applied?”
Target Audience: Psychosynthesis practitioners, current and “retired”, such as: teachers, therapists, councellors, coaches, consultants. cExploratory meeting to see, contemplate and maybe have a direct perception of psychosynthesis as a Living System. We will experience theory and dive deeper into competence with the questions Assagioli put to the conference in Quebec 1973: “What constitutes competence in psychosynthesis and how this can be certified, as a general rule, in each of the fields in which psychosynthesis can be applied?”
and
“What is the right perspective on the questions of competence, given the great need of so many at the present time for at least an introduction to psychosynthesis in their own lives and work, and the need for psychosynthesis to be presented in a competent, qualitatively high, and professionally acceptable way?”
In addition to this the participants may feel an urge to take up other issues that relates to Living Systems as perspectives on psychosynthesis.
A possibility is to conduct a small experiment where we will contemplate what Gaian Will possibly can be?
Learning Objectives: Attendees will together practice theoria (Greek) as Assagioli meant the original definition of theory is: “to see, contemplate and have a direct perception of some truth.” We will discover a way to relate to theory that may not have been open before.
We will practice dialogue mixed with short presentations of various questions in the line with the description above. You can here experience deeper resonance as we practice attentive and respectful dialogue.
And again, to use Assagioli’s words: “What really matters is ascertaining, through experiment, what are the most apt ways or approaches toward the safe achievement of the expansion of consciousness.”
We will collaborate on achieving this.

Svante Björklund Bio: First encounter with psychosynthesis was in New Zealand during the 90ies. After having returned to Sweden (my native country) I started my psychosynthesis journey in December 1999, organizational consultant in 2003 and therapist in 2005. Started with teaching as an apprentice in 2004 with the new beginners. Still teaching the in-depth sessions for the therapists based on the two last(!) books by John Firman & Ann Gila. Also involved in systemic supervision with the organizational consultants.
All in Sweden’s largest psychosynthesis school in Sweden.
Several people in AAP have been very influential in how I understand psychosynthesis. First meetings are from my visit to the AAP conference in Minneapolis-St Paul in 2005. Molly Brown, John Firman, Ann Gila, Tom Yeomans, Mark Horowitz, Didi Firman and the late John Parks and so many more (I haven’t forgotten you).
Digging in the archives with Alle Fonti in Florence is also a high point together with two international conferences in Italy.The embodiment part was securely grounded with 15 years of Aikido, 8 years of Yoga and especially with the Rosen Method including two magic meetings with Marion Rosen and all the Rosen intensives on top of that.
All this has been very useful in the Systemic Constellations work since 2005 with all the best teachers in Europe. Systemic Constellations has been embodiment in practice for me and sometimes a painful experience of self-discovery. Now it is a passion to be exercised as often as possible.
