Buddhistische Psychologie

The path to emotional healing and mental health. Buddhism considers the nature of the mind to be fundamentally healthy. A wonderful premise for a trusting, resource-oriented work with mind and psyche. Tilmann Borghardt, Buddhist meditation teacher, and psychotherapist Wolfgang Erhardt have worked out the basics of a Buddhist based psychotherapy. Central Buddhist approaches in therapeutic work on oneself and others were examined. Awareness training, meditation, exercises in compassion, work with basic emotions and the practice of Medicine Buddha were combined with psychotherapeutic methods from behavioral therapy, psychosynthesis, focusing and Gestalt. The authors describe the basics and application of Buddhist psychology with numerous case studies and exercises for beginners and advanced students.
