The Question is the Thing
Our culture is obsessed with finding answers. We are told early on that when we find the perfect answer, it will all make sense. Everything will fall into place. And yet, a single answer can never disentangle the complexity of life.
What if we seek the right question instead? What if our true power doesn’t reside in a concrete answer, but in the willingness to ask hard questions? What if the honestly-formed question leads us to wisdom and healing?
Would you ask it?
“Asking the proper question is the central action of transformation – in fairy tales, in analysis, and in individuation. The key question causes germination of consciousness. The properly shaped question always emanates from an essential curiosity about what stands behind. Questions are the keys that cause the secret doors of the psyche to swing open.”
– Clarissa Pinkola Estes
In this workshop, we will use the creative process to explore the idea that answers are not the end goal. It is only the courage to ask questions which can lead us to clarity.
