Why Transformation is Not Just Change:A personal experience of transformation
“At the outset of my career, a dear colleague posed a thought-provoking question: "How many times will you offer advice to others
before you truly hear it yourself?"
This insight has profoundly influenced my personal and professional journey, underscoring the importance of self-reflection and the integration of mind and body through mindfulness, cultivating personal values, and dreamwork".
- Dr Dimitri Spiliotis
Why Transformation is Not Just Change
In our journey toward self-discovery, we often encounter the concepts of change and transformation. While they may seem synonymous, they represent distinct processes. Change often refers to external modifications, whereas transformation signifies a profound internal evolution.
Understanding the distinction between change and transformation is essential.
Carl Jung, one of the most profound thinkers in psychology, offers us a guiding lens:
Change often operates at the surface. It’s about rearranging the parts of our lives—new habits, new environments, new relationships.
Transformation, however, is a process of inner alchemy. It’s about a fundamental reorganisation of how we understand ourselves and our place in the world.
Transformation invites us to integrate the unconscious—the hidden parts of ourselves that hold forgotten dreams, fears, and potential, and discovering the richness of our authentic self.
While change may lead to temporary shifts, transformation reshapes the foundation. It’s a journey of becoming more fully ourselves.
Your Invitation to Reflect
Have you ever encountered a person, read a book, watched a film, or had an experience that left you feeling fundamentally different—not due to external circumstances, but because something inside you shifted?
An experience that offered you a new understanding of yourself?
These are the markers of transformation.
At the Delphi Awakening Retreat, we create the space for these profound experiences to unfold. Through mindfulness practices, dreamwork, and deep self-reflection, we guide you to move beyond surface-level change and embrace authentic transformation.
