Dance with Gaia: Process Your Community will focus on the wisdom of Arnold Mindell, the founder of Process Work or Process-oriented psychology. Process Work uses awareness to track psychological and physical processes that illuminate and possibly resolve inner, relationship, community and world issues. To track and follow the processes mean to follow the nature, by following the visible and subtle signals coming from people and events. This means respecting individuals, groups, and the environment, exploring reality and also the dream and essence levels of events. By doing this we often gain more understanding and get surprising temporary solutions as well. WHAT WE WILL LEARN TOGETHER: -3 levels of experiences -Rank awareness -The structure of process -Concept of edge -Inner work -4 phases in group process Apart from the above, Dance with Gaia: Process Your Community will take participants to learn: -how to use Process work as a methodology to work on personal issues and help supporting other to work with his/her issues -how to approach and facilitate conflict and how to listen and embrace all voices -how to deal with differences and diversity to enrich individual and group potential -for those who are interested in facilitation skills to work in dyads or triads and hopefully, to have opportunity to do group work.

The Gaia Ashram Internship is a one month program on Ecovillage Design, Permaculture and Deep Ecology. The internship will be a holistic participatory learning experience & process. Interns will experience being part of the Gaia Ashram Community and we will live together for one month at– Gaia Ashram-. At Gaia Ashram we belief in holistic learning that balances the head, hands & heart. Gaia Ashram encourages participatory learning & values the power of community in holding the learning space. We design the daily & weekly structure of the internship and of our lives here based on these values and principles. Theoretical learning (Head) The theoretical sessions will be participatory and interactive. It will cover the 4 keys of Ecovillage Design Education (Social, Economical, Ecological and Worldview inspired by Gaia Education). Each week will cover one of the Ecovillage Design Keys and integrated into this we will be introduced to Permaculture Design & Deep Ecology in terms of philosophy, movement and personal experiences. Overall, We will have a maximum of 2-3 hours of theory per day on the session days, to also create lots of space for practical experiential learning. See more details of the key content below. Practical learning (Hands – on) For the hands – on practical learning we will be developing the Gaia Ashram’s farm and restoring nature on the Gaia Ashram land using permaculture strategies & techniques that are appropriate for the Rainy Season & the land and its local context.

Apart from the Gardening we will also will be doing some natural building which mostly will focus on creating natural finishes using mud plasters and art works on

Welcome to the Donuimun Eco-Village Common House, a place to share and learn, rest and play, in the heart of Seoul’s most appealing new neighbourhood. This project interprets the inaugural Seoul Biennale of Architecture & Urbanism theme, Imminent Commons, as a call to practical and collective action. We take the public occasion of the Biennale to imagine—at once playfully and seriously—that after the exhibition closes, this cultural zone might be retrofitted to become a new eco-village for Seoul (inspired by the Los Angeles Eco-Village). The resulting community would reuse these buildings to house its residents equitably, incubate enterprises of right livelihood, and enhance the ecological and sociable values of the spaces it shares with its neighbours and visitors. In the spirit of the Recycling Common, our exhibition at 35-40 Saemunan-ro contains a Give and Take shelf, where Biennale visitors are invited to donate and adopt pre-loved household items, from utensils to clothing to plants. Many Biennale visitors have already been taking items home, and we also encourage people to bring clean, working items to share with others. Items can simply be placed on the designated shelves within the exhibition.

Taller con Viva Vigoureux-Heremans “En el fondo de todo adulto yace un niño eterno en continua formación, que solicita cuidado, atención y educación”. C.G.Jung El niño interior nos capacita para establecer verdaderas relaciones con los demás y para amar. Por desgracia, suele desaparecer aproximadamente a los cinco años de edad. Este niño sufrió heridas en el pasado y ahora tiene miedo de que se le vuelva a dañar. Reconectar con él, es reconectarse con la vulnerabilidad pero también con la alegría y la magia. Cuando rechazamos a nuestro niño vulnerable, lo obligamos a buscar el cariño en personas cercanas, exigiéndoles el cuidado del que carecemos y cayendo en relaciones de dependencia. El objetivo de este taller es reanudar el diálogo con nuestro niño interior y escuchar su voz, explorando las emociones que surgen. ¿Cómo vamos a abrir este diálogo? Trabajando con el color, la espiral, la arcilla, el colage, la visualización y el mandala. Imparte : Viva Vigoureux-Heremans, cuenta-cuentos y profesora, terapeuta de Reiki y pintora, animadora de talleres de arte-terapia, con más de 20 años de experiencia psicoanalítica.
