Topic - Dilution of Time and Relationality during Pandemic

Right Mindfulness

IORT has an inclusive approach to integrating Western and Eastern approaches to self-awareness, spontaneity and intimacy. Our vision is to enhance training and practice in India through committed emphasis on personal awareness, supervision and ongoing education. This requires dedication to build a supportive community of counselors and therapists who are invested in expanding their own awareness and providing ethical and professional services to their clients.

This residential retreat is part of the IORT vision. It is special in its design as it incorporates the principles of Sammasati (right mindfulness) and RGT to create a safe space for participants to explore individual approaches to healing and connect with their intrapsychic world that supports this process. 

This retreat is open to counselors / therapists / psychologists who are invested in personal and professional development. Other participants will be taken in for the program based on their past experiences in therapy or under special consideration.

Program Objectives

  • Gain awareness into experiences that hold one back from realizing full potential
  • Engage with each other in compassionate ways to support the community
  • Learn ways of ‘healing and being’ that helps in advancing emotional, physical and spiritual health
  • Love, rage, grieve, play and live

Training Methodology

All IORT training programs are marked by an experiential and expressive art methodology to support the development of awareness, knowledge, skills and competency. The theoretical inputs are interspersed with experiments and activities that are integral to the practice of Gestalt Therapy to facilitate learning by doing. A deep immersion in theoretical knowledge is encouraged and supported through readings, papers and books related to the content of the training. Demonstrations by faculty, live supervision and case discussions will be held to develop skills and competencies in working relationally.
