Course/Module description:
"What matters in life is not what happens to you but what you remember and how you remember it". Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
"Learning from experience" is a course which have been contemplated more than a decade ago, knowing that despite many years of work with special people dealing with psychiatric disturbances of which most lead a full functioning life in the community, we don't know enough about how to listen to them, learn from them and work from this knowledge. Through the years we learned that listening is the most powerful took allowing the right encounter and discourse with the person, and it might lead us to a more valuable and accurate work.
In this course we invite you to listen to yourself and to others, to enjoy, to get excited, to learn, to discuss and to think together about the unique contribution of this listening to your way ahead.
