To be more awake, engaged and connected! To be more … alive!
Yes, but how?
Many of us find ourselves entangled in the habitual patterns of the mind and heart. Repetitive mental and emotional habits can gain addictive power, and this is because we may be compelled to keep doing them despite experiencing negative consequences. Once entrenched, these tendencies can make us feel stuck and in a chronic state of discontent.
One skillful way to respond to these challenges is to increase awareness. By practicing careful attention to the experience as it unfolds in our daily life and reflecting on the qualities and meanings of our responses to it, we can develop a deeper connection with ourselves and with others and, ultimately, transform our way of being. My version of mindfulness-based therapy combines experiential and existentialist strategies and aims to help disentangle from life-diminishing and self-limiting forces.
I am trained in mindfulness and experiential therapeutic approaches. My passion is to assist you in becoming who you are.
The human being cannot live in a condition of emptiness for very long: if he is not growing toward something, he does not merely stagnate; the pent-up potentialities turn into morbidity and despair, and eventually into destructive activities. — Rollo May
