Training in the Hakomi method begins by establishing a focus on self-study and assisted self-discovery and moves on to developing effective communication and relational skills based on embodied mindfulness, loving presence, compassionate witnessing, and perceptual wisdom. Studies have shown the importance of “personhood” and presence in creating a context for healing. Hakomi is an experiential method. In the Hakomi Basics and Personhood program participants are introduced to Hakomi through a variety of experiential practices to cultivate self-awareness and a genuine appreciation for oneself and others. You’ll begin to learn and practise some powerful ways Hakomi has to respond more effectively to suffering. This is like an immersion program to learn a language. By being immersed in an experiential Hakomi way of bringing conscious awareness to the habits and beliefs that are organizing experience, you develop a feel for this way of working and learn to cultivate the skills that will make you a better therapist (or helping role). This is also an excellent review of the basics of Hakomi for anyone and in particular, for anyone thinking of becoming a Hakomi teacher.
