Background of my work
-
The offer
During the last 60 years various psychotherapeutic
techniques have been developed, from Wilhelm Reich up
to bioenergetics which have tried to work integratively
with the different elements of the human being. Other
therapeutic directions have sought a scientific
connection between psychology an spirituality.
The neo-bioenergetics, person-centered therapy,
bio-trance energetics and other alternative methods,
such as the Rebirthing and transpersonal psychology
are just a few examples.
All these methods are well-meaningly trying to work
energetically, integratively and
“scientifically” and their attempts are
more or less successful.
Body-oriented psychotherapy
A modern means to integrate mind and
body.
This psychotherapeutic method assumes that body and
mind form an inseparable unity and that both emotions
and memories are stored in our bodies. We work with a
number of acting-outs (exercises) and massage
techniques in order to enhance awareness of the body
and to bring to consciousness subconscious mental
processes. In this sense, all body psychotherapy
methods are experience-oriented.
Yok'Hah Maya Nahual tradition
Access to your personal power – to
your power
This particular line of the cultural tradition of the
Mayan people tries to connect various aspects of the
human being, namely body, mind, soul and time. The
Yok'Hah Maya experiences are a corporeal science in
which time, cosmos, motion, space and voice are put
together. As a result we become bodies, who feel the
passion of life, minds that can grasp the essence of
things and souls who love their surrounding world. We
find the true time – the power of the
present.
Psychomagic Work
The bridge between old traditions and modern
science- The irrational art of healing
Psychomagic is a term created by Chan Canasta, a
pioneer in the 1950s and 1960s of Mentalism. He
explained that the word was a portmanteau of the two
words psychology and magic, much like his
performances.
Alejandro Jodorowsky uses Psychomagic as a name for
a non-scientific technique that is assumed to be useful
in psychotherapy. The technique combines art, Eastern
philosophies (particularly Zen Buddhism), mysticism and
modern psychotherapy to heal patients with emotional
problems.
My psychomagic approach combine my knowledge as a
body-oriented therapist with Gestalt and Art therapy
techniques as well as energetic work in accordance with
the Yok'Hah Maya Nahual tradition. This proposal relies
in the idea that the unconscious mind takes a symbolic
act as a fact. If the patient is capable to materialize
the conflict, he would be able to act concretely in
order to solve the problem. So a symbolic act could
help to find a definitive solution to some types of non
rational conflicts.
