Buddhist practice has developed modes of imagining that can be used to transform problematic affects and open new vistas for perception. We will read work from Antonino Ferro, Thich Nhat Hanh, and other Buddhist teachers. The class will spend some time on how this material may be integrated into analytic practice, but we will also look more directly at its relevance for our own lives. Participants should be prepared for a more personal group experience; over the course of the seminar we will play with practices from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and work as a group to see how we might support each other in expanding our ways of working and living. The course is open to both novices and experienced practitioners. Course Objectives Participants will develop familiarity with Buddhist psychology and its practices for working with problematic emotion. They will learn how to apply these practices in their clinical work with patients. Participants will be able to compare psychoanalytic and Buddhist approaches to suffering and the effects of early neglect or trauma. They will be able to analyse when each approach may be most helpful in the clinical situation.
