Humaniversity Training

Could life be more fulfilling, exciting and fun?
Are your relationships and friendships truly satisfying and authentic?
Do you want to experience real and lasting change?
Are you really happy?

Click here to read about our Special Offer if you sign up now for the first workshop, Personal Power, Sep 12-14 2008.

The Humaniversity Training (known worldwide as the "Humaniversity Therapist Training") consists of nine weekend workshops over a nine month period. These workshops will look at your life from every angle and support you to create it just the way you want it.

The workshops are highly experiential. The emphasis is on doing rather than thinking. We work a lot with feelings, accessing them and releasing them. We help you get truly in your power, as a human being, as a man or as a woman. We look at early childhood issues and childhood conditioning and help you move beyond limitation and doubt. We work with intimacy and friendship. We give you the power to be straight with yourself, and with others.

The workshops are not heavy! There is a party energy that carries you through the whole weekend. There's a lot of dancing, connecting, sharing, and opportunities for closeness. You'll make a lot of new friends.

This is a training for people who really want to make positive change in their life, or who simply want more - more excitement, more friends, more authenticity, more life.

All the group leaders are Humaniversity therapists and are highly experienced. All have been through all the processes they now lead many times and are committed to supporting you totally.

How does it work?

In the first year there are nine topic-centred weekend workshops that deal clearly with life's key issues. These are the groups for the year 2008-09:

Personal Power – who is in charge of my life?

Mama Papa – an understanding the early life issues which help to create who I am.

Fresh Juice, Warm Heart – learning how to move out of isolation and loneliness into togetherness and friendship.

Humaniversity Encounter – becoming straight with myself and others.

Humaniversity Flushing – a weekend working with this amazing emotional release technique - a simple effective way to release stress and resolve fears.

The Love Spirit – a weekend with Veeresh, the creator of the Humaniversity - a chance to ask him questions, and to experience some of his sessions that broaden self knowledge and self love.

Intimacy – a re-discovery of the sexual and intimate part of your nature.

Bodywork & Self-healing – a time to get in tune with your body and its initate self-healing qualities.

The Art of Relating & getting in touch with our own passion and enjoying sharing with others.

The Second Year has the same group structure as year one, except that you will participate this year in the role of caretaker and also attend a Tutorial Weekend at the Osho Humaniversity in Holland + 6 Tutorial Days here at Leela. In order to graduate to the Second Year you must also complete the one month residential summer intensive called the WOW in Holland.

The Third and Fourth Years happen at the Osho Humaniversity in Holland and consist of seminar-type workshops, some groups in which you participate, and some groups in which you will assist the leaders and learn the art of group organisation.

“When I’m at Osho Leela I feel forced to live authentically; I'm in love with this force. The Humaniversity training is giving me an awareness to identify with what I want from my life. From this I am able to move towards getting it in an extremely exciting way!”
Soonita, 1st year trainee

“It’s a hard-core, full on, fun training. The intensity helped me to go beyond my limits and the togetherness brought me the real encounter with myself. I am rewarded with everlasting friendships. It was great to have the sexiest group leaders and staff!”
Sagar, 1st year trainee

The Training is amazing, so unique and unlike anything I've ever done before. It’s given me so much confidence, happiness, excitement and adventures. A chance to look at myself through the eyes of others and ultimately bring me closer to who I really am. I love it and would recommend it to anyone wanting more from life"
Jess, 1st year trainee

Some Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Osho Humaniversity?
The Osho Humaniversity is a centre in the north of Holland, a Therapeutic Community dedicated to the fulfillment of human potential. It was set up over 25 years ago by Denny Yuson-Sanchez, Veeresh, who still runs the centre.

Who is Veeresh?
Veeresh is the founder of the Osho Humaniversity, the director of the Therapist Training and creator of the Aum Meditation. He has been working with people for more than 30 years. He pioneered the Drug Rehabilitation Programme in Holland in the 70's. Since then he has developed Humaniversity Therapy, the basis of this programme.

How can I get a taste of the Training?
One of the biggest life-changing tools used in Humaniversity Training is the AUM Meditation. The AUM is a two and a half hour interactive social meditation that guides you through the whole spectrum of emotions and leaves you feeling blissed out and alive! The AUM can be done in London and Brighton and provides a great introduction to this work. Check the "Aum on Tour" page for more details. It's also on at Osho Leela. Call to find out the time of the next one.

Do I have to sign up for the whole 9 months?
Many people sign up for 9 months as completing the nine workshops will give you a complete experience. You also benefit from signing up for the full period as the workshops are a group process and a deeper experience when you commit to doing them with one group of people, your peers. However, it's also fine to do just one workshop, to try the process out, because it covers an issue you feel is specifically useful to you, or just because you fancy it.

Is it for therapists?
The Humaniversity Training was originally created as a training for people who wished to become Humaniversity Therapists. However, many people who are not looking to become therapists love to do the training or just come to workshops because they can create such positive change in their lives. It is not at all a pre-requisite that you want to become a therapist in order to do the training or any of the groups.

When does it start?
You can join any time between September and January for that current year's training. The first workshop is held in September.

Can I go deeper?
The complete Humaniversity Therapist Training actually lasts 4 years and so, if you complete the nine workshops and are still turned on to do more, you can. The First Year is done at Osho Leela and consists of the nine weekend workshops, undertaken as a participant. In order to continue on to the Second Year it is first necessary to complete the one month Summer residential, the WOW, at the Osho Humaniversity in Holland. The Second Year of the 4 Year Therapist Training then consists of taking a "caretaker" role at each of the nine workshops plus attending six Tutorial days at Leela and a Tutorial weekend in Holland. In this year you will learn to support the group process through taking on more responsibility in the workshops and gaining theoretical understanding. Years Three and Four consist of experiential workshops and Tutorials in Holland, plus assisting workshops in Holland and at Osho Leela. Entry into Third and Fourth Years in subject to completing the WOW in Holland for a second time.
