Recently the topic of choice has been very present in my practice as a psychologist and psychotherapist. Therefore currently I am thinking about making a self-reflection workshop on this topic.

An interesting quote to ponder about: "Life is a sum of all your choices" Pythagoras.

In this workshop I would like us to explore the issue of "choice" itself, what do we associate it with. How does it manifest itself in our daily lives, in our professional and personal lives, in our emotional lives, where is it most present with us?

What are the choices we make or have already made and what happened to us that we did not choose? How do we live those experiences?

Are our attitudes, values, beliefs, a matter of choice?

We might touch upon the topics of existential choice, conscious choice, values, time, comparisons we make, inner consent, sorrow, regret or joy, forgiveness and gratitude, freedom and responsibility.

What does the topic of "choice" represent for you? What do you associate it with? Which adjacent topics you would like to explore in such a workshop?

Let me know if you would like to attend such a workshop and would you prefer to participate online or in person in Copenhagen (April through mid June). If you prefer to have one-on-one conversation about it, do reach out - I have some openings in my schedule.

How do feel the time? When do we feel it is fast? When does it slow down? How do we see time of our own lives? What becomes past, what is present, when does the future begin? How do we navigate it? How not to get stuck in the pastness? How not to get overwhelmed by future? How to stay in the present? Is it healthy? How does the overall circumstances, times of political and / or financial instability impact what becomes the optimal temporal focus? How does our temporal orientation influences our well-being and how to find the balance. These and many other interesting questions I had the opportunity to discuss today at DIS while presenting some of my research results and lived through experiences.
"Life takes place in time and life will appear where I have time. .. "
"What I take time for is where my life happens. " What do you take time for? Where does your life happen?

Authentic Living - workshop 1: Exploring the Basics of Existential Analysis, Sept 4, 2023

Our Authentic Living workshop series are about to start on September 4, 2023. The first workshop will concentrate on introducing the basics of Existential Analysis. We will look into the following:
- The Roots and Development of Existential Analysis
- Viktor Frankl, Psychological Practices at the Time and his significant contributions
- Existential Analysis Today
- Four Fundamental Motivations
- Relationship: Our inner and outer worlds
- Existential concept of motivation
- The First Fundamental Motivation & “I can”

At its core, Existential Analysis revolves around the exploration of four fundamental motivations that drive our existence:

1. Existence in the World: The innate desire to exist as a complete and whole individual within the world, seeking the necessary space, protection, and support.

2. Experience of Life: The pursuit of fulfillment, affection, and appreciation of values in life, raising the question of whether one truly likes their life.

3. Being Oneself: The yearning for personal freedom and authenticity, where one can truly be themselves without inhibition, seeking attention, justice, and appreciation.

4. Existential Meaning: The quest for purpose and meaning in life, pondering one's reason for being and the contribution they make to the world.

If these concepts resonate with you, the "Authentic Living" workshop series offers a unique opportunity to delve into the heart of Existential Analysis. This series of 10 workshops, each lasting 2 hours, provides a comprehensive journey through various themes within EA. The workshops are expertly designed to encourage introspection and self-discovery.
