Embodiment in the theory and practice of ioenergetic analysis represents the principle of synonymity of somatic, psychic, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of experience. All of these dimensions are part of the experiential realm. Understanding how experience arises from psychic, somatic, emotional, and spiritual sources is central to the theme of this conference. How damage to body, soul, and psyche manifest in experience and what can heal that damage will be investigated in depth.

Entrance to the USA - Visa
Visiting USA with a (B1 - Business or B-2 Tourist) Visa or Travel Authorization (ESTA)
All foreigners visiting the United States of America need to hold a valid visa or travel authorization (ESTA) unless they are green card holders.
While a visa is issued by a US embassy, the travel authorization is applied for an issued online.
The Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA) serves as an online platform designed to facilitate the application process for the U.S. Visa Waiver Program. For individuals planning to travel to the USA via air or sea, obtaining travel authorisation through ESTA is a prerequisite before embarking on their journey.
What are the requirements to apply for an ESTA?
Eligibility for the Visa Waiver Program is exclusive to citizens from 41 qualifying countries.
To secure travel authorisation, an ESTA application must be duly completed. Additionally, a biometric passport featuring a microchip and the relevant symbol on its cover is mandatory.
The Visa Waiver Program permits stays of up to 90 days, encompassing purposes such as tourism, business, transit, healthcare, or participation in non-credited study programs.
It is recommended that travellers apply for ESTA prior to making any hotel or flight reservations, as there may be a need for a full visa. Once your ESTA application receives approval, you have the option to update it with final itinerary details before your departure.
Please consult the instructions on your U.S. Embassy or Consulate website.
Travelers in the following categories must obtain a visa prior to traveling to the United States as they are no longer eligible to travel under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP):
- Nationals of VWP countries who have traveled to or been present in Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen on or after March 1, 2011 (with limited exceptions for travel for diplomatic or military purposes in the service of a VWP country).
- Nationals of VWP countries who have traveled to or been present in Cuba on or after January 12, 2021 (with limited exceptions for travel for diplomatic or military purposes in the service of a VWP country).
- Nationals of VWP countries who are also nationals of Cuba, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Iran, Iraq, Sudan, or Syria.
Overview
Generally, a citizen of a foreign country who wishes to travel to the United States must first obtain a visa, either a nonimmigrant visa for a temporary stay, or an immigrant visa for permanent residence. Visitor visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons who want to enter the United States temporarily for business (B-1 visa), for tourism (B-2 visa), or for a combination of both purposes (B-1/B-2 visa).
How to Apply
There are several steps to apply for a visa. The order of these steps and how you complete them may vary by U.S. Embassy or Consulate.
You should generally schedule an appointment for your visa interview at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the country where you live. You may schedule your interview at another U.S. Embassy or Consulate where you will be present but aware that in some cases it may be more difficult to demostrate your qualifications for a visa outside of the country where you live.
Wait times for interview appointments vary by location, season, and visa category, so you should apply for your visa early.
Please consult the instructions on your U.S. Embassy or Consulate website.
Local Transports
