cordiale_e_sensibileThe basis of the therapeutic program at New Horizons is a vision of the human being, considered as a unit and as a whole, in his biological-physical, mental and spiritual dimensions. It is a path through harmonious growth and integration of all these aspects which Western culture usually tends to consider as separated.

The therapy aims to discover and pursue all skills and powers not expressed by the true Self (the divine spark) exposing the deceptions of the ideal I in which everyone hides has their own wounds and fears.

The route starts by identifying unhealthy behaviors and attitudes; secondly, working hard to modify them; thirdly reaching a deeper introspection (self-knowledge) which reveals all wounds that cause our inappropriate behavior (weakening schemes) ; lastly promoting responsibility and stimulating people to choose new and healthy goals and life plans.

Here’s a summary of the typical attitudes of the Authentic Self that our Program develops:

  • becoming responsible for daily commitments and relational dynamics;
  • promoting a state of responsibility and independence;
  • increasing awareness of the emotional dynamics, as well as mental processes;
  • ability in choosing and judging;
  • commitment and consistency "here and now";
  • ability to reach out to others for self-transcendence;
  • ability to self transcend in order to encounter the other;
  • dialogue and discussion in the truth;
  • gaining the ability to be proactive;
  • reconciliation with oneself (with their past, with their limits, between ideal self and real self);
  • ability to be oneself, free from constraints and the fear of judgments;
  • renunciation of destructive behavior, according to a positive and constructive vision of reality;
  • acquisition of an increasing awareness of their inner spiritual dimension.
