19 August

We started our class by warming up. We walked in a room with our own speed. Then we played a game “wiggling warms”. In this in a circle we were suppose to hold opposite person’s hand. Our hands were tangled and we had to untangle them and form a circle.

Then we did meditation where we scanned our body from head to toe. In this we concentrated on each and every part of the body and tried to feel that part. Then we concentrated on only one part of the body and we tried to understand what it is trying to tell us.

Then we came up with a dream that we can recall. We tried to find the relation between the body part and the dream. We called it ‘free associations’. Surprisingly they had some things in common.

The theory of consensus and non consensus reality-

Everyone has his or her own identity. This identity is the consensus reality. That is the primary process.

The unknown reality is non consensus reality. That is the secondary process.

These realities are constantly changing. There is a dividing line between these two realities. That is called the ‘edge’. It is the inner critic. The edge protects from the unknown reality. We need the permission to go beyond the edge.

Our creativity comes from our dreaming reality. Our dreams are unacceptable part of our self.

Everything in this world has a structure. We can’t stay in a structure. We need a box to get out from the box. So get out of your strong primary identity. And start dreaming!
