7 Day Process Work and Worldwork Clinic, an Individual and Collective Alchemical Experiment, a Large Group Facilitation and Coaching Training. Practicing Process Work Awareness methods in the search for wholeness in our life—through crisis, illness, conflicts, and wars, with Drs. Ellen and Max Schupbach, DDI Team and Everyone. Our Intensive is both a training event and a hands-on experiment for creating alternative narratives for individuals, teams and communities. We are each living tales written by the universe, and they rarely match the dominant storyline. The clinic is a space to practice the discipline of differentiating the Process-oriented Awareness Modes including multi-dimensional Process Work rank awareness modes, which changes perspectives, narratives and outcomes of an individual and community work.We focus on letting go of “personal history”—the old stories we carry from the past that block us from the magic of the present—so we can facilitate from where we truly are, here and now.
Untamed Ecology

The 2025 Intensive confronts the deepening fault lines of global polarization — manifesting as political fragmentation, regional and continental wars, resource-driven trade battles, escalating climate crises, and the rising specter of unpredictable pandemics.
Around the world, political and interest groups are locked in a battle of narratives, vying for the hearts and minds of everyday people. But our two decades of work bridging the Global North and Global South have revealed something quieter — and more powerful — beneath the noise: a deeper reality where human connection transcends ideology.

Diversity and Interdependence

Outside the glare of media cycles and political framing, people from vastly different worlds come together — not despite their differences, but because they see through them. Like ecosystems that thrive through diversity and interdependence, these grassroots collaborations emerge across boundaries, supported by something more ancient than any narrative: the enduring spirit of the land itself.

Our inspiration

draws from the enduring wisdom of surviving Indigenous cultures — teachers in the art of listening to and living by the spirit of the land. In our view, this seamlessly converges with Arnold Mindell’s Earth-based Psychology— a path that weaves together the insights of modern physics with the depth of intercultural awareness, grounding transformation in both the seen and unseen forces of life. As community builders, we are called to rediscover this voice together, to sense its presence in the rhythm of daily life, and to let its guidance shape both our personal paths and our shared futures.

2025 Intensive Themes

The Spirit of the Land and the Indigenous Voice – Path to Collective Alternatives

Innner Work for Watershed Moments in Life – Creating Alternatives for Yourself

Alternatives in Relationships: The Creativity of Conflicts

Migration, Territories, Borders, Wars and Indigenousnes – Alternatives to Mainstream Narratives of Polarization

Death, Life and Creativity – the Alchemy of Body Symptoms

This Clinic is an initiative of the Deep Democracy Institute International. We are members of the Deep Democracy Alliance, an alumni network of DDI colleagues from East Africa, West Asia, Southeast Asia, Russia, Ukraine, Europe, Australia, and the USA, all of whom have completed a Process Work Diploma program.
​Our annual Intensive courses are regularly attended by co-learners from our global community — an essential expression of our organization’s core purpose and the meaning behind our logo: Unity in Diversity.
​We are a member of the International Association of Process-oriented Psychologists (IAPOP) and our training program follows their guidelines.
​We broadly indentify also with the Pluriverse Movement, whose core idea is based on the concept that there is no single universal way to live well, organize societies, or relate to nature. Instead, it honors diverse worldviews, cosmologies, and ways of knowing and being.

Transitions: Crossing under, over and beyond – Curate your inner toolkit. DDI Kenya
2025-11-01 00:00 - 2025-11-02 23:59 (Europe/London) | Four Points Sheraton Hotel, Hurlington, Nairobi, Kenya
We call it the joy ride!

Join us to explore transition capabilities and rediscover the tool kit that has always been with you!
Inner tools help us know when it’s time to take a bus, an underpass or spread your wings and fly! You can try to borrow someone else’s toolkit, but at some point you may find it is easier, more fun and nourishing to curate your own! Remember how you grew up from a child to an adult. You may not know but you made it!
At this seminar, each participant will be able to curate a unique inner tool kit to support your navigation powers.

Universe vitamins
Slow power
Agile perspective shifts
Collective allies
Resistance navigators

In this seminar we explore our beautiful inner tools that we can tap into when we feel the road is not possible. The world is constantly shifting, with endless streams of information from social media, podcasts, and even ancestral wisdom. Yet at the heart of it all, the story that truly matters is you own – how you bring your unique essence to nurture yourself and contribute to the world in simple, meaningful ways.
Remember the tool kit you had as a young person and has been with you always. If you are a millennial or Gen Z. you have already many tools. We can try borrowing each other’s tool kit, but at some point, it won’t work. At this seminar, we are going to curate our own toolkit – down memory lane, with friends, detours life gave me, our dreams …. to find what works.
Come to our seminar to explore transitions in life!
When: 1-2 November. Saturday 10am-5pm, Sunday 10am-4pm

Dreambody Alive, Dead, and Ecstatic / Dreambody Informing Our Lives - Process Work Institute Lithuania
2025-12-05 00:00 - 2025-12-07 23:59 (Europe/London)
The Dreambody seminar is an experiential leadership training for pioneers, coaches, and changemakers. It uses the “dreambody” concept from process-work to explore how the body’s subtle signals and energy patterns hold valuable insight. Through embodied group work and somatic awareness, participants aim to unlock inner resources, creativity, and relational capacity — supporting personal growth and organisational impact.
Our bodies are more than flesh and bones. They are living maps of our dreaming process, carrying signals, symptoms, and energies that often go unheard. In daily life, many of us treat the body mainly as something to cure, train, or maintain. Yet, when pain or discomfort breaks through, it can become a surprising doorway into deeper awareness.
In Processwork, following Arnold Mindell’s dreambody approach, we explore how symptoms are not just problems but meaningful messages. They are invitations to listen differently, to discover hidden aspects of our dreaming, and to unfold new dimensions of ourselves.
This lab offers:

Quick access to the dreaming process through body experiences
Practical tools for relating to symptoms as signals, not just disturbances
A chance to encounter the dreambody as a rich companion in everyday life

The journey is adventurous, alive, and sometimes ecstatic. It invites us into a fuller relationship with ourselves—where the body is not only cared for medically but also honored as a source of wisdom.
Who it is for (who can attend)
The seminar is for everybody interested in embodied leadership, process work, personal growth and organizational impact.

“Dare to Meet” is a three-day seminar rooted in the Deep Democracy / process-work tradition. It’s designed to support individuals in dealing with conflict, difference, tension — whether internally or socially — by cultivating clarity, grounded presence, and conscious dialogue.
Participants are invited to explore and transform conflict — not by suppressing or ignoring it, but by approaching it as an opportunity for deeper connection, new perspectives, and co-creative future vision. Through group work, dialogue and facilitation practices, the seminar aims to help people hold and navigate polarities, differences, and tensions in a way that fosters understanding, presence, and collective intelligence rather than avoidance or polarization.
It is well suited for people who see themselves as pioneers, changemakers, facilitators, coaches — or anyone wanting to deepen their capacity for relational presence, conflict transformation, and conscious leadership in groups or organizations.

•    After lunch: Introduction to process work, process games — practices and physical experiments to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of living research
June 11–13 — Seminar “Love and Loss” with Claire Hill and Mark O’Connell
Love and loss are profound, inevitable human experiences that contain both vulnerability and strength. We explore them through a process approach — a method based on respect for the multi-layered nature of experience: from bodily sensations to dreams, from everyday situations to transcendent states.
Process work allows us to look beyond the familiar story, to find hidden impulses of life even in pain, to hear the voice of the body, the subconscious, rhythm, and ritual.
In this seminar, we will explore together:
• how we experience love and loss — in the body, in speech, in dreams, in field contact,
• how grief can become a portal to the unknown,
• and how group support and awareness help to accommodate the impossible.
Content and approach
This is not therapy in the classical sense, but a living research group where each participant can move at their own pace, be seen and heard. We will draw on key elements of the process approach:
• Working with the edge: exploring the boundary where personal history becomes a field of transformation
•     Body signals: attention to micro-movements, somatics, breathing, nonverbal reactions
• Imagery and dream work: what cannot be expressed in words can be told through images
• Field consciousness: recognizing that we are more connected than we think
•     Working with roles and subpersonalities: exploring inner figures such as the One Who Holds On and the One Who Lets Go
Seminar topics:
• The nature of love—how it manifests in our bodies and in the field
• Losses: partners, health, meaning, familiar identities
•    The presence of spirit alongside pain
• Grief as a personal and collective experience
• What does it mean to “let go” — and is it possible not to hold on?
• Defense mechanisms: fear of loving again, fear of losing again
•    Transition from grief to transformation, creativity, connection
June 15 — Integration in small groups
Facilitators: Tatiana, Lydia, and Julia
• We help participants make sense of, reflect on, and deepen their experience of the seminar, and outline further steps and ways of providing internal support.seminar by Claire and Mark on the nature of love, pain, forgiveness, and hope.
• Integration work in small groups — to translate the experience into personal discoveries and inner movements.
