HEALING ARTS

Family Constellation Weekend With Claus Kostka
FRIDAY evening, all day SATURDAY & all day SUNDAY,
March 19 - 21, 2010

Claus Kostka is an internationally renowned Family Constellation facilitator and Systemic Energy Psychologist from Europe. His workshops are powerful, inspiring, and heart-opening. Kostka has a genuine and warm presence -- a warmth and wisdom that inspires trust. He is a licensed psychotherapist with a private practice spanning 25 years. He is also a certified art therapist, somatic-body therapist, and family therapist. His work has a strong spiritual (non-sectarian) foundation.  Kostka's work heals intergenerational suffering. It enlivens us to our sense of purpose, our deepest selves, and our relationships.

Family Constellation Work as developed by Bert Hellinger, is a facilited group process that helps to reveal and liberate us from repetitive entanglements with our ancestors and families of origin. This process can lead to profound changes in our lives in the realms of relationship, money, creativity, and spirituality. As the process unfolds we rediscover our inner radiance and clarity.

Some words from Kostka himself:

The Basis of my Work by Claus Kostka

Every human being is unique, complete, and whole.

There is nothing we need to attain because everything we seek for, wish, or desire, is already waiting and present -- within each one of us, without exception.

Sometimes we forget this. Then we feel as if all beauty, all life force, all warmth has left us. We no longer feel at home with our selves.

To become centered again, to allow satisfaction into our lives, and to be able to nourish ourselves, we need the courage to move in new directions.

In our work, we reclaim our denied feelings and reintegrate them; by doing so we build a strong basis of ease for dealing with the difficulties of life. We become joyful and appreciative in relationships, and we experience a blossoming and growing capacity for love.

We create space for beauty and for something that is much bigger than ourselves.

In this process we reconnect with our courage: the courage we need to come home again.

For over 20 years I have had the privilege to guide people in their search for themselves. I deeply enjoy being able to help them rediscover their radiance, their beauty, and their vision. I love doing what I do!

Family Constellation Work in the tradition of Bert Hellinger:

Each and every one of us lives in a system.

This system consists of people - spouses/domestic partners, parents and all the rest of a person's forebears - and is shaped by our individual cultural heritage.

As I've learned from the work of Bert Hellinger, these systems have their own natural order - an order which is important to respect. When this order (of love) is disrupted, the effects are felt by subsequent generations as the system tries to correct itself. The result is a situation in which people are seemingly chained to a destiny which is not really theirs and which prevents them from finding and leading authentic existences. Many of us live this way without realizing it and without recognizing that we are repeating the fates of other family members.

As long as we haven't found 'our own lives', we cannot begin to realize our potential in any satisfying way. Until we can unlock our inner potential, it is impossible to satisfy our soul's longing and find inner peace.

Most personal problems, including problems in relationships, result from disturbances in family systems. These problems follow familiar patterns and have a way of repeating themselves over and over.

This workshop is designed to help people

    * To see dysfunctional systems with clarity and make them functional again
    * To make decisions that will bring their relationships onto a new and firmer foundation (or end a relationship amicably)
    * To heal difficult and painful family problems (such as divorce, death, illness, and separation)
    * To learn to be more compassionate
    * To draw proper boundaries and discover their own healing powers

"A Look into Three of Twelve"
by  Peter Morin

MFA Graduate student Peter Morin will present 3 of the 12 Making Objects interventions recently completed for Open Space gallery in Victoria, BC.  These interventions were created with the intention of creating pathways of transformation of the grief and spiritual trauma within aboriginal communities as a result of the Residential School system.  As an inter-generational survivor, Morin created twelve interventionist performances in which the audience, along with the performer, could acknowledge the effect of this grief and co-author ways of creating change.

In one of the performances, Peter worked with High school students to created thirteen Button Blankets. These blankets were combined to create a giant button blanket for the Earth.   
 
In the second performance intervention, Peter demonstrates how to read aboriginal written language. His visual work concerns itself with the authentic relationship building between objects of meaning within Tahltan cultural practice.
 
In the third intervention, Peter worked with Martial Artist David Kong to clear the gallery of negative energy so that the work of healing and transformation could be accomplished.  

Peter Morin is an MFA student working in the department of Creative Studies and is a member of the Crow Clan of the Tahltan Nation.

Native Healing Arts the Focus of Special Event

Health care may not have been top on the political agenda this federal campaign, but for thousands of people in the Okanagan it is the most important issue they face on a daily basis. Whether we are coping with a diagnosis of cancer or heart disease, or dealing with mental illness or elder care, our physical wellbeing has a direct impact on our day-to-day experience.

While traditional Western medicine has focused on fixing our health, aboriginal tradition has focused on healing, which often takes a more holistic view of the person by examining not only the physical body, but the mental and spiritual body as well.

The Okanagan Institute Express series has invited a powerful group of experts in the field of aboriginal healing to share their personal experiences of healing - and how it has affected their lives and others. The event touches on not only Okanagan practices, but aboriginal healing traditions throughout the Americas. Aboriginality: A Celebration of Native Healing Arts takes place October 23, at 5 pm at the Bohemian Café.

Rebecca Cameron is a teacher and new mother. She'll discuss her personal experience with aboriginal healer Tis Mal Crow, an internationally known herbalist and Native American Root Doctor of Cherokee and Hitchiti decent, and author of the book Native Plants, Native Healing.

Carol Derrickson is a member of the Westbank First Nation, who has worked as an administrator in social development for the last 15 years, with a particular focus on Pine Acres, the band-owned 63-bed elder's residence which offers intermediate care. A mother and grandmother, Derrickson speaks to the importance of caring for the whole person as we age.

Patricia Morven, of Nisga'a and Thompson decent, teaches life skills for the ROADS Program through Westbank First Nation. An expert in designing programs that use art as a form of healing, Morven will talk about how the arts has helped people overcome addiction.

Roxanne Lindley is a carrier of cultural and traditional medicines. A member of the Westbank First Nations, she will talk about the aboriginal world view with regard to plants and medicine.

Gayle Liman is the research curator for the Westbank First Nation. She will discuss a holistic approach to healing involving mind, body and spirit and her personal healing journey that took her from Mexico to Guatemala and beyond, where she learned about plants and medicines from numerous Aboriginal healers.

Aboriginality is an ongoing series underway as part of the Okanagan Institute's Express Series, which aims to bring diverse groups of people together in the interest of improving our understanding of culture and the arts, and celebrate the breadth of talent expressed in the Okanagan.

Aboriginality: A Celebration of Native Healing Arts is a free event, and takes place at the Bohemian Café. This marks the 63rd event the Okanagan Institute has held since the Express series got underway in July 2007. Since that time, the series has played host to many Okanagan luminaries, including former deputy secretary general of Amnesty International Derek Evans, artists Lee Claremont and Gary Pearson, BC Book Award nominee Don Gayton, CBC Literary prize winner poet Harold Rhenisch, distinguished editor and author Jim Taylor, poet and professor John Lent, animator and filmmaker Jim Cliffe, architect Jim Meiklejohn, broadcaster Mari0n Barschel and others from a wide range of creative fields.

The Institute Celebrates a Year of Expression

We invite enquiring minds in the Okanagan to come together this week to celebrate the one year anniversary of the Okanagan Institute's Express program.

One year ago, the Okanagan Institute launched its popular Thursday afternoon Express series which feature members of the region's diverse cultural community talking about subjects as far ranging as growth and development, to artistic and creative expression, spirituality and the impact of the green movement on the building industry.

The Story So Far takes place 4:30 pm Thursday, July 3, at the Bohemian Café, 524 Bernard St. in Kelowna.

"We're hoping people will come out for an old-fashioned prairie-style social where they can mingle and remind each other of what we've heard, seen, learned and accomplished in the last year," said Institute founder and director Robert MacDonald. When the Express series started, there was no precedent for a café-style event with a regional flavour. MacDonald decided to pursue his vision regardless, wary it may not survive. But survive it has, now having hosted 47 events over the course of the last year.

More than 70 presenters from throughout the Okanagan region and beyond have taken time to share their expertise. We've played host to visual artists, jewellery designers, musicians, animators, architects and designers. We've heard from university professors and professional story tellers. We've examined architecture, home building, interior décor and green design. Some of the most distinguished writers in our province - Harold Rhenisch, Sterling Haynes, Don Gayton, Ralph Milton, Jack Whyte - have read from and discussed their works. We've generated and invigorated discussion on food security, the future of our water, and the future of development.

"What we've learned in the last year is that people in the Okanagan really want to talk about what is happening here without any political agenda. They want to hear new ideas, and they want to meet the people behind those ideas in a relaxed atmosphere. That's what we've done. And that's what we plan to keep doing in bigger and better ways." The Institute invites everyone who has ever attended or participated in the events to join the celebration, and the general public is welcome as well.

As part of the event, the Institute will be releasing a preview edition of our progress report - The Value of Ideas - outlining our progress to date, the programs and projects we're currently involved with or developing, and our plans for the coming year.

"We want people to know that we're here to stay and what we're thinking about for the future. Our weekly Express series will continue, and we plan to expand on that with more robust quarterly events designed to continue our goal of stimulating inquiring minds. We also intend to continue publishing literary chapbooks, have an exciting new community arts monograph at the printer right now, and are developing a number of other projects that further our mission," he said. "Our main objective is to reveal and enhance the expression of creativity and critical engagement in this valley. We're pleased with what we've accomplished so far, and wanted to celebrate that with a social occasion."

The Story So Far is a free event, and takes place at the Bohemian Café. This marks the 47th event the Okanagan Institute has held since the Express series got underway in July 2007. Since that time, the series has played host to many Okanagan luminaries, including former deputy secretary general of Amnesty International Derek Evans, artists Lee Claremont and Gary Pearson, BC Book Award nominee Don Gayton, CBC Literary prize winner poet Harold Rhenisch, animator and filmmaker Jim Cliffe, architect Jim Meiklejohn, and others from a variety of creative fields.

Singers Talk About Music That Transforms

There's a hidden truth that just about any teen can tell you - music changes you. Typically it doesn't take more than a single note or two to jolt a teen out of complacency or into despair. While that experience may dull as we age, most people realize music moves us from the outside in. "Any songwriting is a gift. It's the muse - it's something else that directs your sound," says singer-songwriter Jane Eamon, who will be speaking along with Barbara Samuel Thursday May 8th at 4:30 p.m. at Hanna's Lounge on Water Street in the Okanagan Institute's presentation Voices Uplifted: A Celebration of Spiritual Music.

Jane Eamon, recipient of the 2008 Okanagan Music Award for folk artist, has established herself as a musician with a soul that sometimes sears through the heart aches that crop up in our materialistic world. She takes on social issues and challenges us to look at them more deeply. Along the way she's been known to infuse her music with a spiritual sentiment (her first album was entitled The Blue Madonna), and that's both smoothed and ruffled some fans' feathers.

"When you craft spiritual songs, they are not strictly faith-based songs," says Eamon, who was also nominated in the gospel category. "It could be a song about mourning the death of a father. Think of We Shall Overcome � that's a spiritual song. You don't have to say Lord or God for the music to have a spiritual component."

Music arrived on Barbara Samuel's doorstep like a bolt from the blue. She was struggling with a health problem that culminated when one day her voice all but vanished. At that time she made a pledge to God to devote her voice to Spirit, and she's been singing ever since � performing with her band Sista B and the Boys, and working as music director for the Kelowna Centre for Positive Living.

"I can't imagine life without song. I hear music in everything. I hear it when I walk, when a door closes, I hear it when I'm talking. I think the connection people feel with music is at a level that is beyond our reality - it's primal. The spiritual experience is innate in us."

In every culture, it is music perhaps more than any other art form that assists us in transcending our human experience.

Ravi Shankar, who introduced the Indian sitar to the Western world in the 1960s, recently said in an interview with Life Positive that people come to a spiritual recognition of themselves through music when it resonates with peace, regardless of what form of music takes them there.

"If you listen with absolute concentration to a church organ or Bach or a truly good musician performing any raga, you shall have a fantastic sense of peace. I consider that the final therapy."

Voices Uplifted: A Celebration of Spiritual Music is a free event, and takes place at Hanna's Lounge. This marks the 45th event the Okanagan Institute has held since the series got underway last July. Since that time, the series has played host to various local luminaries, including BC Book Award nominee Don Gayton, former deputy secretary general of Amnesty International Derek Evans, CBC Literary prize winner poet Harold Rhenisch, animator Jim Cliffe, and others from a variety of creative fields including artists, architects, storytellers, and interior designers.
Express is sponsored by the Arts Council of the Central Okanagan, Wood Lake Books, UBCO Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies, and supports the work of Project Literacy Kelowna.

Join us as artist and writer Karen Close explores the breakthrough ideas and influence of Dr. Gene D. Cohen and Eckhart Tolle. » This is a free event. Refreshments will be available at a modest cost. » Seating is limited, please reserve yours HERE Sponsored by the Arts Council of the Central Okanagan, Wood Lake Books, UBCO-FCCS, and in support of Project Literacy Kelowna Artist and Writer Explores the Nature of Creativity Creativity is the language of the heart. It is the gift within each of us for the processing and releasing of emotion, and the sharing of our uniqueness with each other. This Thursday April 10, at 4:30 p.m. at Hanna's Lounge, the Okanagan Institute continues its Express cultural series with The Healing Power of Creativity - featuring Karen Close, a retired teacher who has developed an innovative program designed to help people of all ages engage in art and from there find their artistic voice. Karen Close is an artist and writer, a former schoolteacher and the author of Unfinished Women: Seeds from My Friendship with Reva Brooks. Since moving to Kelowna, she has been involved in many arts pursuits. She offers a program that explores the nature of creativity at the Rotary Centre."The program is designed to encourage participants to see with fresh eyes and to feel the joy of expressing with 'heArt'," says Close. "Teaching people to have faith in the creative urgings of their hearts is the most important lesson I try to impart." Her approach is from the perspective that�creativity has been proven to improve health. Her worshops are developed from�Dr Gene D. Cohen's work on creativity and the process of aging, and demonstrate that this type of work has been clincally proven to improve all bodily systems. Close states, "Creative invention protects and empowers. When we create we build an imaginary world in which we solve the problems that seem unsolvable in our reality. Nurture your creativity." She encourages participants to make themselves "heArt fit", and also draws inspiration from the writings of Eckhart Tolle. Dr. Gene D. Cohen is an internationally recognized scholar in the field of aging, widely known for his books on aging which include The Creative Age: Awakening Human Potential in the Second Half of Life and The Mature Mind: The Positive Power of the Aging Brain. Much of his work has focused on the powerful positive effects of community based art programs, and how becoming involved in dance and painting classes, art exhibits and performance-based events are a lot more than just having fun. They also help maintain a healthy and independent lifestyle. Cohen states, "Cutting edge neuroscience and groundbreaking psychology advise that Creative Fitness directly affects the health of all bodily systems." Eckhart Tolle is the author of the bestseller The Power of Now and A New Earth, which are widely regarded as two of the most influential books of our time. Eckhart's profound yet simple teachings have helped countless people discover greater fulfillment in their lives, through the transformation of consciousness, a spiritual awakening that he sees as the next step in human evolution. Since 1995 he has lived in Vancouver. Tolle states, "The surrendered state of consciousness opens up the vertical dimension in your life, the dimension of depth. �Something will then come forth from that dimension into this world, something of infinite value that otherwise would have remained unmanifested." By exploring the ideas and influence of these two important thinkers, Karen Close reveals much about the nature of creativity and how it impacts our lives. The Healing Power of Creativity is a free event, and takes place at Hanna's Lounge. It's presented by the Okanagan Institute in association with Wheat King Publishing.
