Paloma Hall

Over the course of three days, participants will explore and practice methods including soul and body experiences which will, at first, enable the experience of inner peace and connection to the Higher Self, through the practice of the “Logic of the Heart”. Upon this foundation will be added practices for social healing through the “Logic of the Will” and “Image Dialog Work”. Please wear loose clothing and bring a soft mat and large towel for the body awareness work. Additional details about the course can be found in the workshop flier link.

Dietlind K. Thoemmes was born in Germany where she trained and practiced as a physician before moving permanently to Marin County in the U.S. in 1995. Her deeper impulse, rooted in Anthroposophy, was always to bring healing not only to the physical body but also to all the layers of the human being. In 2003, she became deeply inspired by the work of Armen Tougu, a Christian Community priest who was visiting San Francisco at that time. As she heard his descriptions of his work with a group of his congregants, she could see how Anthroposophical wisdom was able to illumine pressing social and destiny questions, leading to positive solutions and significant healing. Armen based his approach to inner and social healing on the exercises described by Rudolf Steiner and has, supported by an international group, developed a body of basic methods of concentration and meditation for inner and social healing in our time. Dietlind began her study and practice with Armen in 2003, pursuing this path intensively. In recent years she has been providing counseling and instruction in the basic methods and has also been teaching more comprehensive courses built on these methods. She recognizes that inner and social healing are what is needed if humanity is to evolve towards the tasks of the future.

Fee for first-time participants: $350-$450; fee for repeat participants: $200. For reduced fee arrangements, please contact Dietlind directly at dietlind@mailbox.org.
