Contemplative Psychology

Contemplative Psychology blends Eastern philosophies and Western psychology to help us understand our minds, emotions, and motivations. By practicing meditation and mindfulness, we develop life skills that enhance our quality of life and promote wiser, more compassionate interactions with others.

The therapy involves becoming aware of our body when triggered, breaking the cycle of immediate reactions. This awareness allows us to create a safe distance, gaining clarity about the situation. As we become more mindful, we can recognize physical signals like a quickened heartbeat, prompting us to pause and reflect before responding.

Contemplative Psychology takes us on a journey of self-discovery, reaching vulnerable places. Despite the challenges, the therapeutic process is rewarding, making us less reactive and more conscious. This enables us to approach life with confidence and open acceptance, embracing both its joys and sorrows.
