A
Quest for Meaning is a six weeks course that gives an opportunity
to reflect deeply on the foundation from which we live our lives.
Inspired by the late Dr. Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy - therapy
through meaning - as described in his book Man's Search for Meaning,
this eclectic course begins with an Introduction to establish
a sense of community, trust and purpose of the course. The following
five sessions pose penetrating questions on the topics of personal
Values, Identity, Beliefs, Reality and Self-affirmation. The technique
of Socratic dialogue is used.
Participants are asked to write their response to each question
for a few minutes before opening it up to discussion. The overall
objective is to connect with our innermost self, or core, and
to clarify what we want to do in order to fulfill our potential
and find deep satisfaction in what we are doing with our lives.
Ann Berens is an Associate in Logotherapy. She has facilitated
A Quest for Meaning courses and workshops in various locations
in the Bay Area including the Mercy Center in Burlingame, and
U.C. Berkeley YWCA.
