“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.

Reena wants to be a star...

...A Bollywood star. Unfortunately, her family won't stand for it. It doesn't help that
Reena is only eight-years-old. However, a beacon of hope arrives in the form of Uncle
Jessi. He's just emigrated from India to America, and is a welcome addition to her
family household. Uncle Jessi and Reena share a special bond. Not only are they old
pen pals, but he recognizes her desperation to become a Bollywood actress.


One day, Uncle Jessi plans a secret surprise. He invites her to take part in a pretend
acting game. Reena jumps at the chance. At first, she enjoys swinging her hips to
Bollywood beats. She smiles brightly at his camera. However, halfway through her
performance matters take an unexpected turn. The end results surprise both Reena and
Uncle Jessi.

Important lessons come through an action-driven story and beautiful illustrations:

  • Children will learn that sexual abuse is NEVER their fault.
  • Parents and children will be given a launching pad to discuss the warning signs of "grooming."
  • Children will come away knowing they have the power to say: "NO."
  • Children will discover that sexual abuse can occur in any cultural group.
  • Children can be assured that they will be believed when reporting inappropriate behavior.
  • Therapists and parents can exhibit that sexual abuse isn't an off-limits topic.
  • Child abuse survivors will come away knowing they are not alone.


    Therapists' Acclaim for Reena's Bollywood Dream

    "Reena's Bollywood Dream is exceptionally well-written. It works as an educational piece
    to foster awareness to children and their families regarding the realities of sexual abuse
    within the South Asian community. This informative book can help alter a child's life for
    the better."

    --Sadia Khaliq, B.A., B.S.W., M.S.W., Community Treatment Coordinator, Centre for Addiction
    and Mental Health


    "With a captivating story and beautiful illustration, and with a message that is cross-cultural
    and educational, Reena's Bollywood Dream can help children understand the sad reality that
    there are those who can hurt them but there is also means of staying safe--with others'
    help. I recommend this book highly to all families; it can be instrumental to starting a
    conversation about a difficult topic."
