Open Mind and Abundant Living

At SHALOM the training is for experiencing 'Abundant Living' with Self Help and Open Mind.
The word open stands for free movement in and out. An open mind is where thoughts come and go, ideas are taken and given! In other words open mind is about  being receptive to new ideas as well as willingness to share own ideas. So it happens it is a forum for persons with similar interests and needs to share what they think and also receive ideas and inputs they need. The forum at SHALOM is facilitated by me guided by the TA principles of 'open honest transactions and contractual methods'

We at SHALOM are open to the concerns shared by members. It is done contractually so that everyone is responsible for what s/he shares! We listen to ourselves or work on our personal awareness consistently. We use the Self Awareness tools and practices for this. This deepens our knowledge about our motivations. We remain open to the deeper understanding of ourselves. It helps us to exclude communications with double meaning(Ulterior transactions in TA language). So it happens that open mind is about being truthful to oneself. The more open we are to ourselves the more we are open to others also. This contractual opening up facilitated and structured with TA theory helps to experience time, place and persons uniquely! This is abundance! Every acquaintance, every person, every experience  is unique and rich. Being open to them helps us experience this abundance in life.

The practice of openness  by counsellors and therapists accelerate the self esteem of clients and facilitate healing to wholeness in them. Openness in educators facilitates learning of his/her students  to  the maximum. Practice of openness or being truthful by parents  will make facilitate full fledged development of their children! Training programs at SHALOM is to help teachers, counselors, parents,  therapists and all service professionals to be better professionals through this practice, who in turn can facilitate openness in their clients and thus a growing cycle of openness and abundance!!
