Motherblood, a short play, is an encounter between two mothers, one who is Israeli, the other is Palestinian, both of whom have survived significant losses. They struggle with each other, sharing a wide range of feelings regarding their complex personal and political situations. This is a meeting that changes these two women's lives. It promises to move you as well.

"This amazing dramatic performance breaks through all the rhetoric on both sides of the Israel/Palestine struggle and leads us directly to the humanity and fundamental decency of most people on both sides. It's a perfect opening to a serious conversation about what we can do to build a lasting peace with justice and security for both sides."

- Rabbi Michael Lerner, editor, Tikkun and author, Healing Israel/Palestine

This unique weekend combines Drama Therapy and Psychodrama as tools for professional and personal growth.  Brought together they amplify the possibility for change and human evolution, for individuals, groups and society. There is a shift in consciousness taking place within us and in the body of humanity. Spiritual traditions and ancient wisdom speak to this.  Likewise, Transpersonal Drama Therapy and Psychodrama for Transformation and Sociatry ( the healing of society) offer tools to access, integrate and embody the awakening process and the awakened state. Participants at all levels of experience are appropriate to participate in this workshop.  This can be a first exposure to Drama Therapy, Psychodrama and Sociatry. Seasoned learners are also welcomed and can gain great benefit.

Participants can use this workshop for credit toward Drama Therapy or Psychodrama training requirements. It is also possible to get CE Credits for addiction professionals and counselors.  The credits can often be applied by students to LMHC and  social work licenses.
