Workshop Details – Part 2 of 3
The Drama triangle is a way of graphically displaying the dance that occurs whenever we make someone else responsible for how we feel. According to Karpman, any time we don’t take responsibility for our feelings, we are acting as a part of the Drama Triangle. The Drama Triangle can be a simple yet powerful mechanism for understanding the relationships.
In times of stress and uncertainty, clients often find themselves trapped in familiar roles: rescuer, victim, or persecutor. Yet, maintaining these roles requires continuous effort and energy. While clients may have a default position, they often lack the know-how to access their inner resources and transition into a more resourceful role.
By employing this creative method, you can guide your clients in understanding their current patterns and empower them to choose a more beneficial, well-resourced role.
In this workshop we’ll be diving into the Victim role. We’ll kick things off with a creative exercise aimed at providing insights into the position you adopt. Following this, we’ll explore the somatic experiences associated with this role – essentially, what happens in your body when you take on this role.
By understanding these somatic experiences, participants can effectively reframe their mindset. This workshop will specifically focus on how our bodies respond to stressors and challenges, which can be instrumental in helping individuals step out of the Victim role and into a more empowered state.
