                      Loosening the Grip on Wants and Judgments

Yolanda Koumidou-Vlesmas, LCSW, BCD, CASAC, CHt,

Utilizing the psycho-spiritual method of Voice Dialogue to facilitate the unwinding of sanskaras as in Baba's Discourses.  The presentation will focus on understanding how wants are formed on the psychological level and the role judgments play in relationships; how they can help and hinder our connections with others and with our inner process.  In addition, the presentation will attempt to describe the theory and method of the Psychology of Selves and how it spontaneously supports Baba's Discourses.  During this event participants will have an opportunity for sharing and discussing their own experiences.
