"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the pressent. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations."

Skills Training - State of Mind (12 Sep 2026)

Sat, 12 Sep 2026 17:00:00 GMT

Hakomi Skills Training

September 12, 2026

Each module in this training series focuses students on one of the six important skill sets in learning Hakomi. In this module, we begin with state of mind skills.

State of Mind - How and Why it Matters

"The therapist will also be very warm, kind and patient. The vulnerability that mindfulness entails, the openness to unconscious material that’s needed, all require a very safe environment, which needs a particularly caring, non-judgmental person. You can expect your therapist to be exactly that."

-Ron Kurtz
