The Authentic Process Healing community respectfully gathers together to share sacred time and space.

We are individuals who value compassion and truth. We are grateful for the opportunity to be together on this journey toward holism.

Holism is a place of love, empowerment, creativity and respect for life. It is the place from which we meet future challenges with grace and wisdom.

The concept of respect for self and others is the most important guiding principle of the Authentic Process Healing community. Respect is the state of being regarded with honor and esteem - a willingness to show consideration and appreciation.

Diversity is the ground of our healing landscape. Different from other therapy or self-help groups, we gather together in co-creation and awareness of our cultural and personal evolution, our innate strengths, wisdom, and resiliency. We bond around these inner guideposts, rather than our problems and challenges as would be done in the earlier stage of self-recovery. We form a powerful resiliency bond.

We are privileged to witness the personal and spiritual growth of those who share our journey. In the spirit of creative positivism, and through the use of wisdom circles, our community creates a space together that is qualitatively different from traditional support or therapy groups.

We recognize that in order to experience holism and transpersonal healing we use the Five Powers for Dissolving Barriers to Holism to address the Constellation of Desires that we hold in common.

We open and close the wisdom circles with a simple ritual of group choosing, use a talking object and invite silence to enter the room when needed.

We empower each member to be a co-facilitator,
Create a safe environment for full participation,
Speak from direct experience,
Listen without judgment,
& Protect confidentiality, while giving and getting support.

We trust the process and recognize that participants both receive and contribute to the group's collective wisdom.
