Thursday 11.00-12.30, Common Room: Life's Journey

Judit Béres (Hungary): Pilgrims in search of meaning and belonging: Existential focuses in biblio/poetry therapy.

Life is a constant search for belonging, for love and identity, and for places where we are accepted. A biblio/poetry therapy group offers a supportive community where people can encounter and reflect on their own issues. In recent years, due to collective crises, people have become more focused on significant existential issues concerning their relationship with death, loss, isolation, freedom, and meaninglessness. These issues make people aware of their own existence, encouraging them to clarify their relationship with fundamental questions and values, leading to personal growth and a more authentic life. Our biblio/poetry sessions may focus on these issues. This workshop aims to provide an introduction to this work by presenting some theme-appropriate reading and writing exercises, such as existential poetry and prose, nature writing, creative life-writing exercises etc.
