Process Facilitation and Integration Work

Process Work theory holds that the solution is inside the problem awaiting our discovery. As I follow my own or another person's process, mental and dreambody processes unfold. Using guided exercises and visualization to facilitate the understanding of marginalized parts, polarities and conflicts, I begin to witness and experience the flow of consciousness:

At first, an alienated and weakened little self feels marginalized and disturbed by the appearance of strong opposites in the social environment or in contradictory parts of oneself.

Role playing or theater of the mind between disparate and polarized parts of myself helps to put movement and embodiment into the picture.

A spontaneous and almost magical integration takes place inside the person:

What I previously perceived as "not me" somehow is a stronger and valued aspect of a more together me.

What was disturbing and alien "only in the other person" is also now a more acceptable, functioning part of a more integrated self.

Confidence, compassion and joyfulness arise; I feel balanced and supported by the harmonizing and underlying flow of revitalizing chi energy.

I am carried to a new and refreshing awareness of Process Mind, as Mindell calls consciousness that can objectively witness and help to integrate our lives in a holistic way, including: our behavior, thoughts, feelings, values, ecology, health issues, extreme states of consciousness, and parallel universes.

Realizing that a similar underlying consciousness exists in all human being is analogous to discovering a "pilot wave," to borrow a term from quantum physics and Nobel physicist, David Boehm. This omnipresent, mostly unconscious, interior guidance helps us resolve work and personal difficulties, issues of sex, race and age abuse, addictions, body symptoms, relationship and organizational stress. Process Facilitation and Integration Work can be a real force connecting us to the world.
