Updating Your Life Plan
Are you still operating on a life plan you made (directly or indirectly) as a teenager? Have you become what you dreamed of? Does this old life plan fit your life now? It is time to update your life plan and write a new one. Session 1 looks at your life plan and introduces new skills to evaluate where you are right now and how to write a new plan. Session 2 goes deeper and looks at the hidden motivations behind your goals, wishes and desires. Who do you REALLY want to be?

Double Skinny and the Big Horror
Body size and body image, how do they affect my life? My relationship with the world around me? Am I caught in the perpetual cycle of longing for the body shape I don't have and hating the body I do have?

Romantic Love
Romantic love is seen by many as the highest value of our personal lives, the most important experience, the feeling we base our long-term relationships on and the achievement by which we measure our personal worth. But what is it? What do we mean when we talk about being 'in love'?
Where does the concept of romantic love come from? What are its psychological and emotional components? What does it have to do with our self image and how does it shape our lives and relationships?

Being Single in Bangkok
We live in a couple's world. Many social events and most of our hopes and dreams, quite apart from our self image and self esteem, are built around being 'in a couple'. Being single can be tough anywhere in the world, and being single in Bangkok presents even greater difficulties. On the other hand, many people are now more independent and some even are single by choice.
The workshop explores the joys of being single, both as a temporary and a permanent lifestyle.
