The heart opens when we are intent on appreciation. Ron Kurtz, founder of Hakomi, said, “Loving presence is a state of being. It is pleasant, good for your health, rewarding in and of itself. It’s a state in which you feel openhearted and well intentioned.”
Loving presence is often understood as being loving toward others; Hakomi illuminates this concept by introducing intentional appreciation. This transforms effort to effortlessness, and creates a flowering rooted in the soil of intention. Loving presence empowers us to meet the big, wild world, most of it beyond our control, with great curiosity, care, and positive intent.
The workshop alternates short presentations with exercises and is presented in a step-by-step format, allowing plenty of time to take in the material. Eight (8) CEUs.
