Hakomi therapy is a form of mindfulness-centered somatic psychotherapy〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The Hakomi Institute Homepage )〕 developed by Ron Kurtz in the 1970s.〔''Body Psychotherapy'' pp. 133-141, Tree Staunton, 2002, ISBN 1-58391-116-2 (Google Books )〕 ==Approach and method== The Hakomi method combines Western psychology, systems theory, and body-centered techniques with the mindfulness and non-violence principles of Eastern philosophy.〔 Hakomi is grounded in five principles: *mindfulness *nonviolence *organicity *unity *body-mind holism These five principles are set forth in Kurtz's book, ''Body Centered Psychotherapy''. Some Hakomi leaders add two more principles, truth and mutability.〔 The Hakomi Method regards people as self-organizing systems, organized psychologically around core memories, beliefs and images; this core material expresses itself through habits and attitudes that tend to guide people unconsciously. Hakomi is a method for helping people discover and recognize these patterns. The goal is to transform their way of being in the world through working with core material and changing core beliefs.〔Kurtz 1990: 2-4〕 Hakomi relies on mindfulness of body sensations, emotions and memories. Although many therapists now recommend mindfulness meditation to support psychotherapy, Hakomi is unique in that it conducts the majority of the therapy session in mindfulness. The Hakomi Method follows this general outline: 〔〔Kurtz 1990: 72-74〕 #Create healing relationship: Client and therapist work to build a relationship that maximizes safety and the cooperation of the unconscious. This includes practicing “loving presence”, a state of acceptance and empathic resonance. #Establish mindfulness: Therapist helps clients study and focus on the ways they organize experience. Hakomi's viewpoint is that most behaviors are habits automatically organized by core material; therefore studying the organization of experience is studying the influence of this core material. #Evoke experience: Client and therapist make direct contact with core feelings, beliefs and memories using "experiments in mindfulness" - gentle somatic and verbal techniques to safely "access" the present experience behind the client's verbal presentation, or to explore "indicators": chronic physical patterns, habitual gestures, bodily tension, etc. #Processing: This process usually evokes deeper emotions and/or memories, and if the client feels ready, the therapist helps them deepen into these, often using state-specific processing such as "working with the child" and/or strong emotions. The client is helped to recognize the core beliefs as they emerge, and the therapist often provides what Kurtz called “the missing experience”, a form of "memory re-consolidation" where the child, as they revisit the negative experience(s) that generated their core beliefs, now receives the nourishment and support that was needed at the time. This supports the process of transformation of core beliefs. The same process may be used working with the adult rather than the "child state." # Transformation: The client has an experience in therapy different from the one they had as a child (or are having as an adult) and experientially realizes that new healing experiences are possible and begins to be open to these experiences. # Integration: Client and therapist work to make connections between the new healing experiences and the rest of the client's life and relationships. Other components of the Hakomi-Method include the sensitivity cycle, techniques such as "contact and tracking", "probes" and "taking over", "embracing resistance" and developing a greater sensitivity to clients and how to work with their individual issues based on character typology originated by Alexander Lowen. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hakomi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
