Rewriting the Cultural Parent by Samhita Arni

Rewriting the Cultural Parent: Liberating Identity Through Storytelling, Presented by Samhita Arni

How do the stories we tell and re-tell shape the way we see ourselves and the world?

This webinar explores ...
how cultural myths, fairy tales, and folktales shape our personal and collective life scripts, influencing the way we navigate identity, power, and belonging.

Using storytelling and rescripting, participants will engage with different narrative strategies to challenge restrictive narratives and create new, more empowering stories.

About Samhita:
Samhita Arni has been passionate about retelling mythology in current cultural contexts ever since she was a child, and as an adult, has been engaged in exploring the critical ways in which women participate and are excluded from both mythological and historical narratives. She’s produced four books; starting at the age of 11, with The Mahabharata — A Child’s View, which has been published in over seven language editions and sold over 60,000 copies. Sita’s Ramayana, her second book, a collaboration with artist Moyna Chitrakar, was a New York Times Besteller that is it’s sixth reprinting. The Missing Queen was a spec-fit-mythological thriller based on the Ramayana, and her last book — The Prince — is a work of historical fiction set in the time of the Sangam era. The Prince won the 2020 Neev Book award.

Samhita works as a consultant and an educator. She has been training in Transactional Analysis for the last five and a half years — which adds greatly to her understanding of how the stories we tell and retell shape identities and cultural psyches over time.

Alienation, an early concept in TA: Hogie Wycoff and radical psychiatry presented by Diane Salters

This webinar looks at the concept of alienation, its origins and its use in TA by the early radical psychiatry group as a way of identifying social disorders as a ...key factor in the presenting problems of clients.

An early proponent of this was Hogie Wycoff, largely forgotten at one point in our history. Recently the concept has been revived by Karen Minikin and Keith Tudor.

Why did this forgetting happen, and why is she being remembered now?

The webinar is aimed at anyone interested in TA and a psycho/social understanding of the difficulties people face.

It will be interactive, questions and discussion being an integral part of it.

Participants will gain:
1 An understanding of the origins and history of the concept of alienation in its original use and its application in TA.
2 A knowledge of the early radical psychiatry movement in TA and what it represented.
3 The application of the concept now in their own lives and with clients.

Bio
Diane Salters, Training and Supervising Transactional Analyst, has been involved with TA, in one way or another for more than 40 years. She has always been very closely interested in the connections between the personal and the political.

She currently practices in the Psychotherapy field, with an international array of clients although she lives in Simons Town, South Africa.

This Webinar invites participants to consider how different neurotypes (differently wired brains) can provide interesting insight as to how we define okness.

Steff and Jo will provide teaching on various ...
aspects of neurodiversity (we all have differently wired brains) and neurodivergence (those whose brains mean that they may require different approaches, have different mechanisms for living in their world).

They will apply this to a TA model of health and pathology and question whether certain TA models are ableist and unhelpful to those needing a different approach.

They offer a psychotherapeutic treatment approach which may also be applicable to counselling, educational and organizational applications.

Participants will learn:

Understanding neurodiversity and neurodivergence and the difference between them.
Links between neurodivergence and how a “Life Script” may be formed.
New approaches to working with Neurodivergence clinically, educationally and organizational consultancy.

In the fast-paced world of business, where efficiency and profits often take centre stage, it's easy to overlook the very essence of what makes it all possible – our shared ...humanity. This workshop will challenge our task-focused perspective on business dynamics and offers Berne’s psychological focus as a measure of connection and autonomy in an organisation.

In an era dominated by technology and automation, it's time to pause and remember that organisations are fundamentally humans in conversation – emotional, intricate, and at times, beautifully unpredictable.

We are interconnected individuals, yearning for recognition, craving structure, and seeking stimulus.
This webinar will demonstrate how responding to the three psychological hungers can revolutionise your approach to relationships, leadership, customer service and team dynamics.

An experiential learning workshop with Rosemary Napper TSTA in the Organisational, Educational and Counselling fields, exploring a few TA concepts exploring culture, and emphasising the importance - globally and locally ...- of an intercultural perspective.
Rosemary has worked with TA in all continents (including the frozen one!) and grew up as a ’Third culture kid’. Thus her fascination with culture in all forms has developed and now she suggests a radical contemporary perspective that our personality is primarily created from cultural messages in the Parent ego state and the experiences of the Child ego state.
About Rosemary
Rosemary Napper is a TSTA and CTA in the fields of Organisations, Education and Counselling. She is the Director of TAWorks, providing training in transactional analysis for organisational consultants and coaches as well as programmes for counsellors and psychotherapists in central Oxford.
