Accessing the Divine

"Hakomi is a Hopi word, a sacred question, which asks us: 'How do you stand in relation to these many realms?' A mindful, body-centered approach to psychotherapy and healing, Hakomi teaches not only to listen to the words of the mind, but to the language of the body as well. Hakomi and the Re-Creation of the Self Model offer ingenious and teachable methods for discovering the sacred within."

~ Jon Eisman

Through many experiential exercises, short talks and demonstrations, this workshop utilizes the Hakomi Method and Re-Creation of the Self Model to explore our personal relationship to the divine and offer guidance on how to explore these themes in clinical practice. This workshop does not attempt to persuade participants to embrace a particular spiritual orientation.

Participants will learn and experience:

• An introduction to the Hakomi Method principles & techniques

• Employing the Method as a powerful means of Accessing the Divine

• Immediately usable techniques for accessing a sense of Divinity in therapy

• The powerful psycho-spiritual model "The Re-Creation of the Self", developed by Jon Eisman

• Working with the Body as a Resource for healing psychological wounds

• The application of Non-violence to Resistances and Defenses

• Utilizing Mindfulness to study blocks to our Spiritual Awareness
