Abstract
Whilst Gestalt has its roots in Psychology and Therapy; at its core, Gestalt is a way of being and living in the world. Gestalt offers us very practical and theoretically sound approaches that supports us to artfully navigate our professional and personal lives.

In this session, Living Gestalt, I will share how I practice and use Gestalt in my profession as Development Planner and we, together, in conversation will explore various Gestalt principles and practices that we deploy in our way of being in our work, personal lives and life in general.
