The Objective

The School of Aliveness & Adulthood is where Dr. Maryse Touboul practices her unique psychoanalytical technique.

The School was founded in 1994. Its essential goal is to work on the Laws of Life and to teach how to build a new Language that unbinds itself from the Other, and allows us to become the Subject of our Self. This means working toward an Alive state, by learning to be determined and to love ourselves consciously, thereby un-learning to mistreat and devalue ourselves, which destroys our desire to live. In order for the Alive state to become meaningful and real, we all have to learn and build its structure. Then, the notion of Human can win over the non-meaningful Parental Language of the Unconscious, which is inhuman and deadly.

One of the objectives of the School is to teach how to make Time become Alive, by giving meaning primarily to Real Time, or in other words by making time become a movement of real quality. This also implies not doing things because they need to be done but because we want to be proud of ourselves for having done them. In this process, we clearly work on the Unconscious; but we do this without letting the Unconscious be in command and without letting the patient be subjected to its deadly Language of Lack, and this makes all the difference with "classical" analytical work.

The School of Aliveness & Adulthood transplants what is happening on the couch into real life. This method particularly values real and experienced history, as it progresses, session after session, based on the reconstruction of a present already past but not dead or transposed in a way that it cannot be verified by the patient. This way, the analytical work takes into account all timely, spatial and real data from the experiences told by the patient during each session, rather than only focusing on the painful memories of the past. The technique applied at the School of Aliveness & Adulthood gives priority to the Signified and to Real Relative Space-Time, both needing to be learned.
