The holistic nature of the training equips graduates to work in depth with a wide range of issues be they medical ( e.g. Koenig ‘Blessed by Illness’, symptoms hold a message that can be unfolded and worked with) soul pain or psychological; and spiritual (be it emergence or emergency).
• Counselling and Communication skills one year course, also working out of Anthroposophy, can be a bridge into the post graduate training or a stand alone course for anyone wishing to enhance self awareness and communication skills.
• Inner work and meditative practice is a big part of both courses.
• Group facilitation and leadership as a 2 day workshop
• Coaching
• Self development and finding one’s life purpose
• Eco-medicine as seminars and workshops.
One student Julia said” I was excited about the course I am doing when I came, but my expectations were far exceeded by the integrity, depth and heart warming atmosphere that I found. I think everyone should know about the Metavision Institute.”
The Metavision Institute has been growing and developing since 2004. Now in its 8th year it has moved from the initial pioneering phase to one of consolidation and depth.
