JesseItem Widening our lens, deepening our practice: An exploration of energy within the teachings of Virginia Satir(Satir International Journal, 2016) Leslie, MaryThis article seeks, through a deeper examination of Virginia Satir’s meditations, tapes, and writing, to bring greater attention to her concept of energy and how she applied this to her own practice. Satir frequently talked about centering and energy and acknowledged her unique way of seeing and being to a few close colleagues. Her meditations and comments about how she uses meditations provide a clearer picture of her way of centering, and con-necting with the universal life energy, which was foundational to her way of being and engaging with clients and students. The article also draws from the teachings of Carl Rogers, Eugene Gendlin and colleagues, and Dora Kunz and Dolores Krieger (founders of Therapeutic Touch) to explore the under-lying assumptions of an energetic framework and more fully illuminate this aspect of Satir's work. Through this review of her ideas and meditations, and excerpts from the author’s own experience with an energetic perspective, the goal will be to deepen awareness of therapists and their comfort with engaging clients through a more energetically focused lens.Item Zero infinity: Multidimensional healing of experiences(Satir International Journal, 2016) Lum, WendyThe Satir Model is an inclusive, systemic therapeutic model that offers innovative concepts and interventions that lead to deep transformation. Virginia Satir was a pioneering, creative and brilliant therapist. This article will introduce and present a systemic and geometrically based concept “zero infinity” as an innovation and new offering to the Satir Model. Zero infinity has emerged from my research on Satir’s Personal Iceberg Metaphor (Lum, 2000) and treating thousands of individuals, couples and families since 1994, when I was first exposed to the Satir Model intensive training. I will share some experiences, understandings and influences that have helped me to discover zero infinity. This concept has been influenced by my Asian heritage and Canadian Western upbringing. Video links will visually and verbally demonstrate how zero infinity relates to healing within four dimensions of a person.Item The Human Kaleidoscope(Satir International Journal, 2016) Zahnd, Walter FredThe Human Kaleidoscope is a model of behavior based on the work of Virginia Satir. Satir emphasized the role of spirituality in connecting with the deepest aspects of oneself and with the core essence of another. The Human Kaleidoscope incorporates Satir’s focus on spirituality as well as elements of Satir’s Iceberg metaphor, styles of communication and rules for commenting. It provides a model that is holistic and applicable to both assessment and intervention.Item What is the world trying to do now?(Satir International Journal, 2016) Dodson, LauraItem Movement and body-focused learning in the Satir Model(Satir International Journal, 2016) Wieprecht, Eva; Carlock, C.
