The Embodied Imagination: Getting the Courage to Change
The Embodied Imagination® method is a modern-day adaptation of dream work practices of the Asklepian healing sanctuaries in ancient Greece. The method draws from a broad set of disciplines that include alchemy, ancient incubation practices, active imagination as developed by C. G. Jung, different acting techniques, phenomenology, complexity theory, neuroscience, and depth psychology. The EI® method, developed by the Jungian therapist and well-known author, Robert Bosnak, has roots in the work of ancient alchemists and well-known pioneers of depth psychology C. G. Jung and James Hillman, philosophers Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Henry Corbin, and others.
This training manual is intended for students in a basic Embodied Imagination®—Getting the Courage to Change training program. It contains the necessary teaching materials to meet requirements set by the International Society for Embodied Imagination (ISEA) for qualification as a Certified Embodiment Practitioner or Certified Embodiment Therapist to use the EI® trademark to work with other persons but not to train others in the EI® method. The manual design, structure, and presentation of concepts and practices guide the student through the three major stages of EI® skill development: during the first six months, the instructors teach and demonstrate the practices with full leadership roles, during the second six months, the students begin to co-share leadership in demonstration and application of the EI® method, and during the last six months, the participants transition from students to EI® practitioners or therapists.
