Symposia Community Events – November 2005

Codependency is a word that is thrown around a lot in the past 20 years and it’s a very broad term. When people are afraid to express angry, or when they express it destructively, that is a symptom of codependency–relationships that are enmeshed. Anger used in a loving way helps break the trance of codependent relationships–it is a form of self-loyalty in a way which helps everyone involved. Anger also cauterizes emotional wounds; it creates and firms psychological boundaries and it affirms a sense of innocence, a commitment to our personal sense of worthiness.

Openness, consideration and respect are the foundation elements of vibrant community experiences. The Symposia Conversation Project is an experiment in community dialogue where people of different beliefs and points of view can engage in meaningful discourse that enlightens, challenges and enriches the participants.

The class consists of play time, singing, puppet show and crafts.

The meetings have rotating facilitators who come up with specific subjects, but people who attend shape the conversation and this gives a different flavor to every meeting. The discussion is respectful, open, and creative and there is no pressure to contribute. Everybody is welcome.

There is a minimum $5 order per person.
