Are you ready to transform your life, take on new challenges, and achieve your goals? Transpersonal psychology can help. It's gaining momentum, and communities of motivated people are emerging everywhere thanks to the work of pioneers such as: Abraham Maslow, Stanislas Grof, Ken Wilber, Roberto Assagioli, Carl Jung, Michael Washburn, Charles Tart, Roger Walsh, Frances Vaughan, Richard Tarnas in the English-speaking world, but also Jacques Mabit, Jacques Vigne, Didier Michaux, Christine Hardy, Brigitte Chavas And Sylvie Bérubé (Lüna)These psychologists have all contributed significantly to the evolution and understanding of transpersonal psychology by integrating spiritual and transcendent aspects into their practice and theorizing.
However, it is important to highlight the lack of female authors in this field of research, despite the emphasis placed on the importance of the sacred feminine in humanity's evolution towards balance. Recent initiatives aim to encourage and value women's contributions in this field, hoping to balance this representation.
What is transpersonal psychology?
Transpersonal psychology goes beyond simply understanding the ego and material needs. It focuses on spiritual experience, self-realization, and connecting with broader dimensions of existence. By integrating these principles, you can not only achieve your goals but also live a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
This refers to consciousness and its different levels:
- How to expand your field of consciousness?
- How can we no longer remain locked in beliefs and break free from them?
- How to achieve inner well-being and balance?
This also includes relationships with others and notions of good and evil:
- What is good and right?
- How to manage relationships with others?
As you can see, there are two important axes in transpersonal psychology:
- The vertical axis : from instinct to intuition, or from materiality to transcendence.
- The horizontal axis : symbolizing the relationship with others, whether close, professional or societal.
A point of balance must be found at the intersection of these two axes. This point is specific to each person and depends on their personality and life story. All of this is part of what is called personal development, because we can only work on ourselves and not on others. It is only because we change ourselves that the world changes.
The particularity of transpersonal psychology, as I understand it, is that it integrates all aspects of the human being: body, mind and soul, but also the interior-exterior duality or materiality-transcendence (reality-surpassing).
The tools of transpersonal psychology
Transpersonal psychology offers several tools to achieve this point of balance. Here are a few:
Meditation
Meditation is a central practice in transpersonal psychology. It helps calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve concentration. By meditating regularly, you develop mental clarity that helps you make more informed decisions and stay focused on your goals. Practical advice : Try to meditate 10 to 15 minutes a day. Find a quiet place, sit comfortably and focus on your breathing.
Connecting with Nature
Spending time in nature can have profoundly beneficial effects on your well-being. Nature helps you reconnect with your innermost being, recharge your batteries, and stimulate your creativity. It also allows you to develop resilience in the face of daily challenges. Practical advice : Make a habit of taking walks outdoors, whether in a park, a forest, or near water.
L'Self-realization'
Self-realization is about discovering and expressing your true essence. It is by exploring your passions and aligning your actions with your core values that you will find deeper meaning and satisfaction in what you do. This is the most delicate tool to wield and it takes time. One of the best approaches I have found is the one proposed by theIKIGAI. Practical advice : Identify your passions and integrate them into your daily life. Look for ways to live in accordance with your values and aspirations.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is the art of being fully present in the moment. By cultivating this presence, you become more aware of your thoughts, emotions, and actions. Practical advice : Practice the mindfulness by incorporating short breaks into your day to refocus.
These are just some of the tools offered by transpersonal psychology. You will find more resources on my site.
