With thi...Thank you Andrew for this encouragement<br /> <br />With this posting I wanted to make it clear that for me teaching drawing is just another part in the social-psycho development of the people I work with. <br /> <br />I see no point in trying to diagnose from pictures. We know the medical diagnosis. We can't diagnose anything from a picture but we can perhaps use them as a means of communication with the artists.<br /> <br />Teaching or encouraging drawing or mark-making is one way of getting the development of a client going on par, just in the same way as when encouraging a child to touch its body or pour out a drink or whatever else we do all day in our mutual journey of discovery in a conductive setting!<br /> <br />I am enjoying reading the links on your latest posting and maybe there will be more from me on this subject when I have digested it all. There will certainly be more on other theoretical subjects as I hope I will get round to Petö and his German and Austrian mates again.<br /><br />SusieSusie Malletthttp://www.susie-mallett.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704425219270767105.post-12166389910752400412010-01-24T21:01:53.535+01:002010-01-24T21:01:53.535+01:00Thank you so much.

You can see the product at:<br /><br />http://www.conductive-world.info/2010/01/la-ronde.html<br /><br />If only more conductors would write about what they do and what they intend and understand by what they are doing when they do it. <br /><br />Then it would be so much easier for people to form concepts of conductive pedagogy/upbringing outside the narrow and generally rather sterile formulations currently widely bandied. We might even as a result hear a little less about 'therapy'.<br /><br />Thanks for all what you do in this respect. More, please.Andrewhttp://www.conductive-world.infonoreply@blogger.com
