Use of Guided Reminiscence and
Meditation: Exploring Spirituality
in the Context of Therapeutic Groups
Paula E. Hartman-Stein, PhD
This workshop combines didactic
information about how to conduct
guided autobiography groups with
experiential elements of Kirtan
Kriya meditative practice,
inspirational writing by sages of
all faiths and prompts for guided
reminiscence writing. This workshop
will illustrate the methodology of
guided autobiography groups
developed by the gerontologist,
James Birren, Ph.D. It will
emphasize how explorations of
clients' spirituality can be used
therapeutically in a group context.
Participants will learn:
1)
key elements of guided autobiography
groups;
2)
a brief Kirtan Kriya meditative
practice; and,
3)
how to incorporate spiritual
readings and exploration of
spiritual beliefs and experiences by
writing within a group context.
