The ‘Facing The Heart’ process is comprised of three key elements (used intuitively throughout the session):

• She’ela (Question): Guided dialogue with the impulses, fears, and desires of the heart.

• Shtika (Quiet): Somatically experience trapped emotions, witnessing and acknowledging their messages.

• Shikuf (Reflect): Somatic experiencing guided by intuitive dialogue. Align with authentic desires, cultivating clarity and resilience.

With loving and precise guidance, we lead clients to embrace layers of emotion-rousing questions that reveal their personal relationship with the unconscious, and, in doing so, illuminate their personal paths to freedom.

Historical Origins:

‘Facing The Heart’ developed out of a revolutionary Chasidic practice of personal prayer called hitbodedut, usually done alone in nature or a quiet place. It originates with Rebbe Nachman of Breslov (a late 18th–early 19th century rabbi), who discovered and later taught hitbodedut as a central path to self-reflection, spiritual connection, and healing.

Praying from one’s point of truth (nekudat ha’emet) is, as Rebbe Nachman taught, the most radical act on earth. This process is designed to facilitate your lasting connection with that unique point inside you.
