Like Alice, the client faces the known and not so clear, as the acts of creativity entwine the conscious and unconscious states towards journeyed resolutions. Creativity in coaching affords a chance to connect through the transpersonal self within and beyond an assumed life position. Clients work with creative acts surfacing their emotions, assumptions, perceived blocks, and opportunities moving between the edges of fatalism and agency. The creative process acts as a third position between the coach and the client, this helps the coaching client face what they may feel uncomfortable with and evokes curiosity that acts as a lens and mirror for personal examination. In conclusion, this paper argues that realisation transforms us, also in some cases transports us, transcending to another state, an acceptance of the self, future belief, and clearer purpose. In essence, agency is being able to move within your own dream, to become authentic and not to be caught in the dream of someone else, which eventually traps and confines us. Lest not be caught in the dream of the Red King.","PeriodicalId":92595,"journal":{"name":"Transpersonal psychology review","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82603805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I respond to Taylor’s criticisms by noting: (1) that my own perspective rejects materialism and acknowledges the need for metaphysical concepts in transpersonal psychology; and (2) that, in researching transpersonal phenomena, researchers should aim to bracket metaphysical assumptions and should prefer non-metaphysical explanations where these are sufficient. I expand upon and clarify my criticisms of soft perennialism and argue that Jorge Ferrer’s participatory theory offers a more productive approach to understanding metaphysics, the varieties of spiritual experience, and religious pluralism.","PeriodicalId":92595,"journal":{"name":"Transpersonal psychology review","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84388746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The author had practised transpersonal spiritual activism in medical schools and hospitals since 2007, and taught university courses on anthropology and spirituality before then. This workshop offered an overview of her courses and summarised current practices of spiritual activism in medical schools.Workshop Aims. The aims of the workshop were to raise awareness of spiritual activism in medical schools, and address issues around social inclusion. Within the discipline of medical anthropology, this workshop offered a Tool-Kit and practical Resource Training Pack for discussion, so conference participants who were prospective practitioners and activists might consider using it. The aim was to enhance participants’ own skills and knowledge base, to support their actions towards applied transpersonal activism, based on their own knowledge. The workshop participants brainstormed ways they might use the material available, to present a strategy to their colleagues on potential ways forward to address social inclusion.","PeriodicalId":92595,"journal":{"name":"Transpersonal psychology review","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85495794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
