About the Workshops Back to Question List Why do people repeat a workshop module? Participants return to our workshops for many reasons: to devote a weekend for personal growth, the power of the group atmosphere, the discipline of a workshop, and guidance from a certified leader. By repeating a workshop module, many people find that they deepen their knowledge of the method. Using the Intensive Journal method is an acquired skill that is developed over time. There are also benefits that are generated from cumulative use of the method over time. Attending another workshop will allow you to take stock of how your life has changed as well as your perspective about it. Therefore, the content of your writing may be surprisingly different and lead to new awareness and possibilities. Dr. Progoff believed that a key factor for individual growth is working in the workshop atmosphere and not the specific module that a participant is taking. Therefore, he urged people to focus on enrolling in a program that fit their schedule even though they may have attended that module previously. Some people find that they do not use the broad scope of exercises on their own. To benefit more fully from the method, it is important to use many of the exercises. A workshop experience provides you with the discipline to work in each of the exercises. |
