Livre en français: la Thérapie Contemplative Créative (CCT) est un entraînement progressif de l’esprit incarné. Le modèle repose sur les Huit Niveaux d’Entraînement de l’Esprit Incarné, articulés autour de quatre phases thérapeutiques, et intégrant des pratiques méditatives, somatiques, relationnelles et créatives.
Rooted in the Eight-Level Embodied Mind Training Model, CCT views emotional suffering as a multidimensional process involving attention, perception, embodiment, and relational experience. Both a clinical framework and a contemplative path that unites introspection, creativity, and relational presence.
This book presents a research study on the construction of a contemplative photo therapy (CPT) model for group intervention to assist youth with anxiety disorders. Contemplative arts are forms of meditation that are a continuum of mindfulness and awareness meditation practices.
ARTICLE 2023 - Contemplative Creative Therapy (CCT):
A Novel Approach to Train the Embodied Mind
This article introduces Contemplative Creative Therapy (CCT) as an emerging clinical approach grounded in contemplative science, Buddhist psychology, and creative arts therapies. CCT aims to restore coherence within the embodied mind by integrating meditation and contemplative creative practices with a humanistic, person-centered therapeutic framework. Drawing on contemporary research in contemplative neuroscience and somatic psychology, CCT emphasizes the inseparability of cognition, affect, and sensory experience, positioning healing as a process of reestablishing the flow of energy and information throughout the body–mind system.
