The Four-Fold Way®
The Four-Fold Way® Program was researched, created, and synthesized by cultural anthropologist Angeles Arrien, Ph.D. It is currently being used in medical, academic, and corporate environments. Angeles is also an award-winning author, educator, and consultant to many organizations and businesses. She lectures and conducts workshops worldwide, bridging cultural anthropology, psychology, and comparative religions. Her work reveals how perennial wisdoms are relevant to our families, professions, and our relationship to the Earth. She is the President of the Foundation for Cross-Cultural Education and Research and a fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences.
THE FOUR-FOLD WAY® PROGRAM
The Four-Fold Way® Year-long programs begin in late January 2009 in Sausalito, CA. These educational programs are designed to increase your respect for nature, each other, and enhance your ability to work collaboratively in your family & profession. The programs provide time-honored tools, practices, and skills that develop & strengthen leadership, team building, and communication skills. By using the four universal principles and archetypes listed below, participants learn how to be more effective both personally and professionally by using the four universal principles and archetypes listed below:
Show up and choose to be present / The Way of the Warrior/Leader
Pay attention to what has heart and meaning / The Way of the Healer
Tell the truth without blame or judgment / The Way of the Visionary
Be open to outcome, not attached to outcome / The Way of the Teacher
The program includes a solo Wilderness experience on 300 acres of ceremonial land in Northern California. Research demonstrates that solo time in Nature for 3 days & 2 nights provides a significant healing and transformative experience for anyone from adolescence throughout adulthood. Over 6,000 people nationally & internationally have benefited from these life-changing experiences.
Each class meets for twenty one 2-hour evening sessions from Jan.- Oct., & includes a three-day, two-night solo wilderness experience in early June, (no classes in July & August).
