Workshop Five - Thomas Hübl Collective Trauma: How the Ghosts of our Collective Past Shape our Lives
In this talk, Thomas Hübl, PhD, will guide us on an interactive journey, diving deeply into the underbelly of our cultures,
that which we might perceive as the “ghosts” of our collective past. What happens when we allow these voices of the
“ghosts” to speak? What are the symptoms of their presence in our lives? Thomas will illuminate the importance of
understanding the impacts of individual, ancestral, and collective trauma on our lives, and the essential tools and
practices needed for collective healing. While individual therapy is important for the healing process, large-scale cultural
and systemic wounds are often at the root of collective pain, which requires collective spaces for integration and healing.
In his more than 20 years of working in this field, Thomas has worked with thousands of people throughout the world as
the world as part of group trainings and other large-scale events, teaching about the critical and urgent need to design a
“collective healing architecture” to meet the colossal challenges of our current time. As part of this talk, Thomas will lead
an interactive experience with participants and audience members, based his integrative approach to healing.
