The Estonian Transpersonal Association
The Estonian Transpersonal Association is working to develop a new way of help, moving away from scientific diagnostic psychology, into transpersonal creative education.
WE believe:
That traditional psychology has failed on a social and political levels, our word has not become a better place to be.
All our so called emotional and behavioural problems have their roots in loss of identity, undergoing a spiritual crisis and a loss of one's meaning of life.
Those problems are irrational and illogical and any attempt to find a logical explanation to an logical problem will be a waste of therapeutic time. Our tools of scientific measurement are too primitive to measure human feelings.
We see a mental illness as a normal reaction to an abnormal situation.
We think that feelings and thoughts are the same thing, expressing a feeling is trying to find a logical semantic word to express a bodily sensations.
We believe that in order to help our fellow human we need to work illogically using the imagination, as our 'problems' has been created by our imagination.
And the best way to work with the imagination is by closing your eyes, this is why we are promoting the use of transpersonal symbolic hypnosis.
The aim is not to find what is wrong and try to fix it, but to focus on what is right and teach the person how to use it.
The theory should fit the person and not the person should fit the theory, this is why the Estonian Transpersonal Association is moving away from any diagnostic labels.
The Estonian Transpersonal Association is promoting a 'Transpersonal Education' as oppose to therapy or psychological treatment.
We facilitate the learning of being able to ask the questions instead of being preoccupied with finding the 'right or true' answer.
The Estonian Transpersonal Association has established a school teaching Transpersonal Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy.
As well we organize monthly evening support groups in different towns, Residential seminars.
We promote the practice of spiritual beliefs and encourage individuals to develop their own belief systems instead of following Gurus from the other side of the world.
We use different approaches of breath integration, body centered psychodrama, body work, dance and art therapy, and any other approached are always welcomed as long as they are their for the benefit of our fellow human beings.
