About the Event

On the final day, participants will complete the journey of transformation with the remaining core practices of the Deconstructing Anxiety model. We begin with The Witness, an exercise that invites participants to focus on the physical sensations of fear and gently deconstruct them, allowing the fear to dissolve into the spaciousness of their internal universe. Next, the Resisting Resistance exercises help us catch the very first moments of fear’s projection onto our world, and teach us how to withdraw that projection before it takes hold. We then move into Vision Questing, where fear is transformed through alignment with a “Mighty Purpose” (G.B. Shaw), turning the five core fears into the five “Ingredients for Fulfillment.”

The day concludes with a comprehensive Q&A and final review of the full Deconstructing Anxiety model: identifying the core fear, recognizing the chief defense, reversing that defense through transformative exercises, and finally, living into a purpose-driven path that turns fear into fulfillment.

Live Event This is a live online event. It will be conducted via Zoom Webinar.

Live Event Instructor

Todd Pressman

Todd Pressman

Todd Pressman, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist and international seminar leader. He is widely known for his work with Deconstructing Anxiety. He graduated with degrees in psychology from the University of Pennsylvania and Saybrook Institute. His books Deconstructing Anxiety: The Journey from Fear to Fulfillment, Radical Joy: Awakening Your Potential For True Fulfillment and The Bicycle Repair Shop: A True Story Of Recovery From Multiple Personality Disorder have all received high acclaim. In 1982, he traveled the world to study the great wisdom and healing traditions, including with a Zen master, a Jain family, a Zoroastrian high priest and a Sri Lankan firewalker. His education also includes an internship under Stanislav Grof, M.D. at the Esalen Institute. With a background deeply rooted in tradition (he was groomed by a father whose teachers were taught by Sigmund Freud), he has integrated this wide-ranging experience into a new program of psychological development called "Deconstructing Anxiety". His working model is based on Michelangelo’s ideal: to release the statue from the stone, the authentic Self from the overlays of imposed identity, into the discovery of freedom and fulfillment.
