“Seeds of change lie dormant within. Even more than you can imagine will grow there if given a chance.” (Goodier)

Most of us enter the field of psychology with the desire to assist individuals create and sustain healthy change in their lives. We are well trained in a myriad of traditional methodologies as well as dynamic, diverse, therapeutic approaches. What if we were to enhance and augment our current thinking by embracing an organic process of growth, healing, and transformation?

Based on stories from individuals who submitted their experiences of “A SHIFT In My Life” as well as anonymous clients’ stories, I have defined a pathway for individuals who are currently working through dissatisfying circumstances, discomfort, or dis-ease in their lives, and for any individual yearning for significant, sustainable change. In this interactive workshop, attendees will be invited to participate in several phases of a seasonal process of self-growth, unearthing and exploring their own seeds of change while gaining insight into a unique process of SHIFTING Bravely.

Objectives:

1. Given an eight-part process of SHIFTING, participants will identify and explore at least four phases of a seasonal process of self-growth and connect one or more to their process of SHIFTING.

2. Given an eight-part process of SHIFTING, participants will identify and describe at least three phases of struggle or challenge and connect one or more to their process of SHIFTING.

3. Given the importance of “paying attention to our awakening seeds” during the dynamic process of SHIFTING, participants will define one posture for “turning inward” while identifying and describing one or more of their unique pathways for doing so.

4. Given the importance of “sustaining change” during the dynamic process of SHIFTING, participants will identify at least four organic representations of sustainable change while claiming and describing one or more of their own.

Encompassing some 130 years in Ironwood's history, Compassion, Michigan illuminates characters struggling to adapt to their circumstances starting in the present day, with its subsequent stories rolling back in time to when Ironwood was first founded. What does it mean to live in a small town--so laden with its glory day reminiscences--against the stark economic realities of today? Doesn't history matter anymore? Could we still have compassion for others who don't share our views?

A Deaf woman, born into a large, hearing family, looks back on her turbulent relationship with her younger, hearing sister. A gas station clerk reflects on Stella Draper, the woman who ran an ice cream parlor only to kill herself on her 33rd birthday. A devout mother has a crisis of faith when her son admits that their priest molested him. A bank teller, married to a soldier convicted of treason during the Korean War, gradually falls for a cafeteria worker. A young transgender man, with a knack for tailoring menswear, escapes his wealthy Detroit background for a chance to live truly as himself in Ironwood. When a handsome single man is attracted to her, a popular schoolteacher enters into a marriage of convenience only to wonder if she's made the right decision.

RAYMOND LUCZAK, a Yooper native, is the author and editor of 24 books, including Flannelwood. He lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

"These are stories of extremely real women, mostly disappointed by life, living meagerly in a depleted town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Sound depressing? Not at all. Luczak has tracked their hopes, their repressed desires, and their ambitions with the elegance and precision of one of those silhouette artists who used to snip out perfect likenesses in black paper; people 'comforted by the familiarity of loneliness,' as he writes."ť --EDMUND WHITE, author of A Saint in Texas
