Milton Erickson held the view that psychosomatic symptoms were a direct gateway to the healing power of the creative unconscious. Through the wisdom of this perspective, symptoms can be viewed as pathways for generating positive therapeutic outcomes, even in unusual and difficult cases. Insight Meditation or Vipassana is a simple practice of observing experience from a place of stillness. This enables one to relate to life without fear and to begin to accept pleasure and pain, fear and joy, and all aspects of life with increasing equanimity and balance. Learn to become more creative in your treatment approach as we integrate the essential practice of mindfulness with the clinical applications of Erickson's work. Recent advances in neuroscience, as well as leading edge skills in the field of somatic psychology will also be included.
