A Center for Holistic Therapy and Transformational Learning
CORE ENERGETICS
A PATH OF PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION Core Energetics is a method of personal growth and transformation. It combines the various methods of bodywork with spiritual work. It was originated by psychiatrist John Pierrakos, MD. This work is focused on bringing BODY, MIND AND SOUL together. The basic aim is to help a person live from the "Core" - a unitive state of pleasure, truth and harmony that is achieved when a person is in full energetic flow. This approach includes deep bodywork, breathwork, and expressive techniques for emotional release. It also incorporates "Character Analysis" as a powerful psychological process, and it is grounded in the spiritual teachings of the "Pathwork." Below, you will find out more about how Core Energetics works, what its goals and methods are, and how it may help you reach your goals in life!
WHY WE WORK WITH THE BODY....Understanding Body-Psychotherapy Your body holds every experience, both joyous and painful. When a negative or painful experience happens in life, your body contracts. When your energy stagnates from this contraction, we call this an "energy block." This "defense" represents our attempt to stay safe in an environment we perceive as disturbing, hostile or threatening to our integrity. These muscular contractions disrupt the natural flow of energy in your body, distort your thinking and perception of reality, and prevent your creative and loving expression in the world. You may find yourself unable to enjoy a satisfying lifestyle, and you may be denied a healthy body, fulfilling relationships, and even lack prosperity. You may struggle to accept yourself and others. As a result, you may feel angry, afraid, humiliated and stuck in life. You are actually blocking your potential from within!
THE GOAL OF CORE ENERGETICS The goal of body-centered therapy is to help restore the natural flow of energy in a person. Body-psychotherapy is a sub-specialty of psychotherapy and an integrated aspect of the Core Energetics process. We combine specific physical exercises and psychological process work in order to address the deepest conflicts in a person and guide them towards a full and embodied life experience.

DR. JOHN PIERRAKOS, M.D. The Founder of Core Energetics
Core Energetics was developed by John C Pierrakos, MD, co-founder of Bioenergetic Analysis with Alexander Lowen. Dr Pierrakos was a student of Wilhelm Reich, MD who was a student of Freud. Reich came to the United States and Pierrakos came from Greece to study medicine in NY where the two men met. Pierrakos researched the nature of energy and human energy fields that he incorporated with study of eastern traditions and a spiritual discipline called The Pathwork when he created Core Energetics. The Institute for Core Energetics was founded by Pierrakos in 1978 [originally called the Institute for the New Age] and incorportated in 1983. Most forms of body psychotherapy and transpersonal work in the United States are informed by Dr Pierrakos' work.
