Synopsis:

In this book, Marcela Nemcova and Karel Hajek provide the complete overview of theoretical bases of satitherapy in a simple, readable and at the same time professional way. The practical use and application of the basic principles of satitherapy is illustrated on the example of the "Taming the Demons" satitherapeutic technique which was inspired by an indigenous healing ritual used for mentally ill people in Sri Lanka. Most of the practical skills and techniques in satitherapy are derived from the systematized ethical–psychological teaching of the theravada buddhist tradition, called Abhidhamma. Considering that this satitherapeutic know–how is unique and can not be found in any other psychotherapy developed within our Western culture, readers with an interest in Buddhism and psychotherapy will surely welcome and appreciate this brief Introduction to Satitherapy.
