Three online teaching presentations, held by Adam Blanning MD, will be paired with interdisciplinary small group discussions about the cases. Anyone who is working with patients is welcome to take part!
What is it about?
In collaboration with Ita Wegman, Rudolf Steiner finishing the book "Fundamentals of Therapy" ("Grundlegendes füreine Erweiterung der Heilkunst") as one of his final tasks before his death in 1925. The book is an open secret — difficult to read if you approach it like a usual book of factual content, but profound when understood as a guide to process, constitution and states of being. That doorway opens wider when we work with it in group study. Through case discussions, we wish to offer an international celebration of this landmark guide for extending the art of healing.
Each lesson will be offered twice:
You choose which timing works best for you. Both sessions will use the same zoom link:
• once for Europe (Saturday afternoon), Americas (Saturday morning), and Western Asia (Sunday morning)
• once for Eastern Asia (Sunday morning), Australia/NZ (Sunday morning), Americas (Saturday evening)
