Description Journal Therapy Diploma Introducing the Journal Therapy Diploma - an exclusive online course meticulously crafted to guide enthusiasts on the transformative journey of self-reflection and personal growth. Through this course, learners embark on an enlightening journey that harnesses the power of the written word to bring about profound change. The Journal Therapy Diploma is a pivotal tool for those seeking to understand themselves better. It kicks off with 'Discovering Journal Therapy,' setting a strong foundation for what lies ahead. By exploring the intricacies of journaling, participants learn how this therapeutic method stands out in promoting mental well-being. The segment on 'Exploring Your Emotions' provides learners with essential skills to navigate the labyrinth of their feelings. This is where the real magic happens. As students work through this unit, they begin to distinguish between different emotions, recognising triggers, and more importantly, pinpointing ways to channel these feelings positively. One of the highlights of the Journal Therapy Diploma is the emphasis on 'Developing Mindfulness with Journal Therapy.' In an era where distractions are rife, and the mind frequently wanders, understanding and practising mindfulness becomes indispensable. This section helps participants ground themselves, living in the present moment and truly experiencing life as it unfolds. Self-confidence and self-esteem are pillars of a healthy psyche. 'Boosting Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem' assists learners in finding their inner voice and believing in their capabilities. As they pen down their thoughts, an inner transformation occurs, replacing self-doubt with self-assurance. Everyone possesses a creative spark, and 'Enhancing Creativity and Self-Expression' aims to ignite it. Here, participants learn techniques to free their imagination, letting their unique voice shine through their journal entries. In 'Cultivating Gratitude and Positivity,' the focus shifts to harnessing the power of positivity. Recognising blessings and adopting an attitude of gratitude can significantly elevate one's life quality, and this unit ensures participants master this art. Life, with its myriad challenges, often leads to elevated stress and anxiety levels. 'Managing Stress and Anxiety' furnishes learners with valuable strategies to use journaling as an outlet, enabling them to find tranquillity amidst chaos. The Journal Therapy Diploma then moves to a sensitive but paramount topic: 'Healing from Trauma and Loss.' With empathy at its core, this segment teaches participants to process grief, loss, and trauma, using journaling as a healing balm. An individual's growth story is incomplete without goals and habits. 'Setting Goals and Building Habits' is an insightful unit that aids learners in outlining their aspirations and working methodically towards achieving them. Last, but certainly not least, 'Continuing Your Journal Therapy Journey' ensures that participants remain committed to this therapeutic practice. This final segment reinforces the significance of consistency and offers guidance on how to keep the momentum going. In conclusion, the Journal Therapy Diploma is not just a course; it's a transformative experience. It beckons all those eager to understand themselves better, offering a sanctuary where thoughts are laid bare, and the soul is rejuvenated. Embrace this unique journey and let the power of journaling illuminate your path.

Polarization, or the “polarized mind,” is a fixation on one view, causing widespread destructiveness. It needs presence and love to address. We aim to explore the lived experiences on irregular perceptions of reality with an open mind. Each Saturday includes: a live dialogue between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and an International Existential Therapist; a moment to share your thoughts and feelings with the teachers; and a final integration facilitated by Bárbara Godoy. This series of ten dialogues set out to explore the multifaceted dimentions and complexities associated with Existential Therapies. It attempts to engage with various interpretations of insanity through the lens of patients often painful, confounding, and deeply unsettling life experiences. Polarisation - between Prof. Ernesto Spinelli and Prof. Kirk Schneider “I view polarization or that which I call the “polarized mind” as the fixation on a single point of view to the utter exclusion of competing points of view, and I see it as a core dimension of human destructiveness both individually and collectively. Arguably, polarization or the polarized mind is responsible for more devaluation and abuse than any other general psychological dimension, and it crosses cultures, parties, disciplines and so-called diagnosed and undiagnosed populations. In fact it is the undiagnosed populations—polarized cultural, political, and religious leaders and their followers–who have arguably caused the most human destructiveness by far, over those whom we conventionally termed the diagnosed The polarized mind may be partly dispositional but appears to be largely fear-driven and requires abiding presence and love to address it. We are in a race against time to avail people to these “nutrients.” Prof. Kirk Schneider. Prof. Kirk J. Schneider, Ph.D. is a leading spokesperson for contemporary existential-humanistic and existential-integrative psychology.
