David Cole and Carol Ladas-Gaskin, authors of Hakomi with Internal Family Systems and Focusing: A Deeper Look at Mindfulness-Centered Therapies, developed a unique Hakomi training program that includes Internal Family Systems a “transformative tool that conceives of every human being as a system of protective and wounded inner parts led by a core Self.”
Core principals of Hakomi:
Loving Presence
Organicity
Unity
Mind-body Holism
Non-violence
The Hakomi Method is particularly useful for individuals dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. By incorporating mindfulness, clients can become more aware of their thought patterns, emotions, and bodily sensations. Together we pay very close attention to nonverbal behaviors, such as tone of voice, movements, gestures, posture, facial expressions and micro-expressions. By observing these, we get ideas about what unconscious material is controlling automatic, unconscious behaviors and can begin gentle steps toward transformation and healing.
A Hakomi Session is 60 minutes.
