Hakomi Method
somatic psychotherapy
mindfulness-based
Hakomi is a unique and effective therapeutic approach that supports human development and change.
This integrates oriental practices of non-violence and mindfulness, with an experiential and body-centered methodology.
The method was originally developed by Ron Kurtz in 1981. Currently, Hakomi integrates neuroscience, attachment theories, trauma therapies, among other innovative approaches, and its principles are an optimal basis for highly transformative processes.
STUDY PLAN
COMPREHENSIVE PROFESSIONAL TRAINING
nonviolence
It promotes security, non-forced ways, cooperative exploration. It honors the signs of the organic process and supports the defenses.
organicity
It assumes that all the parts intercommunicate with the whole as a self-directed and organizational system, with its own internal wisdom. Supports the natural flow of the system.
full attention
A powerful tool to help others study their own experience. A relaxed and attentive state that allows one to witness deeper states of consciousness.
Unit
It assumes that we are integral systems, composed of interdependent parts at all levels: physical/metabolic, intrapsychic, interpersonal, familial, cultural, and spiritual.
mind-body integration
It affirms that the body and mind manifest and reflect the beliefs we have about ourselves and the world, which organizes the way of inhabiting and experiencing the world.
