What is Pathwork?
The Pathwork is a method of personal growth that involves emotional, spiritual and mental work to better understand the origin of problems and to make the changes necessary to live a fuller, more balanced life. Pathwork Australia is a Chapter of Pathwork International, a not-for-profit educational foundation which has many other country specific affiliates throughout the world.
A vibrant way of life...
"A
challenge, an exciting journey, a process that makes life
so intensely real and wholesome, so secure and fulfilling
that you would not want to give it up for anything."
• Pathwork Guide Lecture No.204
A
journey of immense beauty...
"If you are willing and prepared to discover all of yourself,
you
are indeed embarking on a journey of immense beauty."
• Pathwork Guide Lecture No.204
"Greetings, my dearest friends..."
With these words, the entity that spoke through Eva Broch Pierrakos would start to describe how the larger world of spirit surrounds and contains us. Within 258 lectures, transmitted fortnightly from 1956 through 1979, the Guide offered us a new vision; a startlingly optimistic view of why we are here, what we are trying to accomplish, and how much assistance is available to us - if we ask for help.
Re-discovering
old truths...
"...this Path is not new; it has existed in many different
forms for as long as
human beings have lived on this earth."
• Pathwork Guide Lecture No.204
Pathwork™ in Australia is a chapter of the International Pathwork Foundation and is authorised to teach the lectures, develop Pathwork Transformation Programs for individual and group process work, and organise training for new Pathwork Helpers.

Pathwork invites us to look deeply and honestly
within, and to take responsibility for - and control of - our lives. We learn practical ways of discovering and changing the
inner causes of outer "unfulfilments". This is a path of growing self-knowledge and self-acceptance, which leads
to self-transformation. Central to the Pathwork is a belief in our essential and permanent divinity. This enables us
to face and transform what all of us deeply fear: our temporary blindness and negativity. It may seem paradoxical, but
our self-love inevitably grows as we actively confront and change the worst in us. When these rejected aspects of self are
healed and reintegrated with the already healthy parts, our inner wars end and we become whole, strengthened, and more loving. All of these levels affect our ability to function
in the real world. While it is occasionally useful to focus upon one level more than the others, ultimately we desire all
of ourselves to come into harmony. Pathwork™ is more than concepts; it is a daily practice... a practice that
enlivens and deepens interactions between human beings. Whether you study the materials on your own or find others to work
with, it will be within the daily interactions of your own life where you will find the Pathwork principles of greatest value. With
a clear sense of where we are and how we got there, finding our way home becomes a joyous and exciting adventure. Blessings
upon your journey! Working within Australia Workshops
and seminars within Australia will be announced on this site and sent to all current email contacts. We are not able to post
announcements due to cost. Personal sessions with a Pathwork Helper by telephone (including webcam if available) can offer
support and insight into your process work. A listing of North American Helpers is available through the Pathwork Helpers
Association of North America (PHANA). Information about individual members may be found at www.phana.org Jan Rigsby is the chairperson for PHANA and relocated to Austin, Texas in December 2006. There are currently no Pathwork
Helpers resident in Australia. You may contact Jan by signing in a the bottom of this website page. Pathwork Transformation Students who have completed Year Three of the formal Pathwork
Transformation Program may begin their Helpership Development Programs by assisting at workshops, teaching Introductory Lecture
Study classes, tutoring Transformation Program students and helping to develop self-led groups. Their work is supervised by
a certified Pathwork Helper. Distance Learning - An Alternative A Distance Learning Program is offered as an alternative to formal programs which require attendance at regular workshops and seminars. It is designed for mature students who feel they can apply prior learning to the course materials, or who cannot manage to attend classes during the first two years. Since each weekend retreat module includes 16-18 hours of instruction, process and group activities, students should carefully consider whether or not self-directed Distance Learning would work for them. Distance Learning has been designed as an alternative, and may not be easier, faster or less expensive than participation in a standard Transformation Program. Not sure about Distance Learning? If you are not sure whether Distance Learning will work for you, consider downloading program materials and working through some of them on your own. Completing the assignments for the first module, filling out the life inventory, and exploring the additional materials may clarify your objectives. Materials for Module 1 are available for download from the Self Study page of www.pathworktexas.org  |

The heart of the Pathwork is 258 lectures, delivered from 1956 to 1979 through the channel Eva Broch Pierrakos. The profound truth of this material enables us to illuminate our daily lives and find the deeper meaning of existence. The lectures provide insight into the multidimensional aspects of our individual personality, ego, spiritual self and universal consciousness. We are challenged to become aware of our illusions about "what is" so that we can see current reality accurately and envision what will be possible through our growth. Tools and TechniquesPathwork is an in-the-world spiritual path, which helps to resolve everyday problems as well as ultimate questions of existence. This path leads to inner peace, security, and a sense of being meaningfully connected to the universe. Some examples include:
