In 1998, he wrote to Norman Vaughton, “passing the torch” to him & asking him to continue developing Erickson’s work, saying “Please Norman! Take all this from me”Description: the seminar focuses on the metaphorical interventions using body techniques. The workshop includes demonstrations and exercises that will allow therapist  to master this method. Work-shop designed on those who have not previously worked with similar techniques and to those who wish to develop their skills and to increase knowledge in working with metaphors of movement.A pioneer in working with metaphors of movement was Ernest Lawrence Rossi. Norman Vaughton expanded his work, adding new elements, among which  is an epistemological metaphor .In this workshop  we see a sleek, powerful, economical methods of therapeutic intervention. His method can be used for any problem – it is simple, but requires significant practice.The basis of the method is the belief that spoken words originate in consciousness, but involuntary movements are unconscious. These movements are not meaningless,  random and have a meaning. The movements provides direct and immediate access to the unconscious of the client, and therapist can track them and create the necessary metaphors. The task of the therapist in this process is to carry out minimal intervention.Workshop includes theory, demonstrations and exercises.
