SUMMARY:Shadow Work with the 16 Guidelines with Craig Mackie
DESCRIPTION:Shadow Work with the 16 Guidelines: Uncover\, Transform\, Heal:- \nJoin Craig for a special three-part immersive series designed to go deeper into transforming the shadow side of good quality.  \n*Participants should be familiar with either the 16 Guidelines or Transformative Mindfulness Methods (TMM). \n📅 March 17\, 24\, 31 (Mondays)⏰ 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM EST (Toronto\, Canada)📍 Live on Zoom \nCourse Journey:\nSession 1: Preparing for transformative work \n\nconnecting with a healing space\ngrounding in compassion and wisdom\nacceptance of pain and the root causes of suffering.\n\nSession 2: Approaching and transforming our relationship to the shadow: \n\nwelcoming the negative aspects into a healing space\nencountering resistance\, introducing wisdom and compassion\nasking for help and letting go.\n\nSession 3: integrating and healing transformed the shadow: \n\nwelcoming and encountering resistance\,\napplying and integrating new insights and feeling\nnext steps and embodying transformed shadow.\n\nWhy this course?\nSo often in mindfulness practices\, for participants and facilitators alike\, deep discomfort and distress can arise. Having a toolkit to encounter stress\, paint\, trauma\, childhood wounds or resistance of any kind is essential. \nThis course will introduce participants to a framework and practices that will help them meet blockages to their highest embodied potential through transformative mindfulness. \nThe 16 Guidelines are an indigenous set of embodied virtues that originate from Tibet. In their modern iteration they comprise a framework that can be universally accessed through our own experiences and inner wisdom. Laid out in 4 wisdom themes of how we Think\, Act\, Related and Create Meaning\, each corresponding 4 guidelines can be used to meet challenges and transform suffering. \nWith each good quality also comes the potential for a shadow to arise – something that resembles the qualities but is not (semblance)\, a misuse of the quality (unskillful) that is tainted by unclear motivation or malicious intention\, and the opposite of the quality (contra). Each of these shadow aspects has the potential to be transformed through introspection and healed by introducing wisdom and compassion. \nTransformative Mindfulness Methods provides the perfect framework to dive into transforming a specific shadow that may arise. \nIn this workshop\, participants will be encouraged to pick a specific quality with which they wish to have a deeper relationship. Over three weeks they will participate in transformative work through visualization\, group discussion and didactic instruction.  \nWho is this for?\nThis course is ideal for those familiar with either the 16 Guidelines or Transformative Mindfulness Methods and who want to:✔️ Work with inner blockages preventing their full potential✔️ Gain new tools for healing emotional distress and resistance✔️ Deepen their understanding of shadow work & transformation \n💰 Pay What You Can (Suggested: $100 CAD)📜 Receipts available for psychological services/social work📩 Register: craig@essentialchange.net \nJoin Craig in this powerful and supportive space for deep transformation. 🌿✨ \nFacilitator: \nCraig Mackie –Craig is a registered 16G facilitator and trainer\,  born in Ottawa\, he has a BA in Developmental Psychology/Philosophy from the University of Alberta\, an MA in Philosophy from the University of Ottawa and an MSW from the University of Toronto.
