Teaching Method<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”OLM – Text” _builder_version=”4.0.2″]<\/p>\n

Organic Learning Method (OLM)
<\/strong>Our teaching approach is designed to engage the organic process that allows empathic ability to develop in the human psyche.<\/p>\n

Anchored in research in the fields of Neurobiology, Dynamic Systems Theory, Relational Self-Psychology and Intersubjectivity Theory, the goal of OLM is to re-engage a developmental process that may have been dormant since childhood.<\/p>\n

Our focus is on re-engaging a developmental process rather than simply on behavioral change. This process involves working with both the conscious and unconscious mind, including hard-wired and cognitively learned mental patterns. Whereas traditional teaching approaches stress the cognitive, OLM introduces emotion\/feeling as co-equal elements in the emotional intelligence learning process.<\/p>\n

MODULE 1<\/strong> – Deconstructing Empathy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Module 1\u00a0deconstructs empathy by exploring various aspects of the empathic attunement process. Chris compares the different impact of the pro-social behaviors pity, sympathy & empathy. Then he takes a deep dive into the hard-wired and cognitive aspects of Empathy, Theory of Mind and the importance of the \u201cas if stance,\u201d where the concept of Empathy as a two-way communication process is introduced. You will gain a comprehensive and practical understanding of what empathy is and what it is not, as well as how it works.<\/p>\n
