3. THE SEVEN BASIC CAPACITIES OF FULLY ALIVE PEOPLE

Based on clinical experience and trying to organize what is usually required in therapy or personal development work, we found out a series of abilities that people considered being essential goals. Later, we discovered that these goals were not about abilities to acquire but basic capacities or potentials to unfold. All healthy people have these capacities but they have forgotten or atrophied them, even before these capacities could actually emerge.
When trying to organize these requirements we discovered that they were all related to seven basic topics. By reorganizing them, we actually updated the traditional model of Yoga’s seven chakras, from a contemporary point of view and in terms of bio-psycho-socio-spiritual capacities.

These seven basic capacities will be described in the next section. They are:

During each practice, taking into account its primal qualities an especially selected set of music guides us to the awareness of each chakra and it’s specific functions. The primal postures, movements, images and sounds, thus allow us to mobilize blocked energies in each chakra. The silent meditations at the beginning and at the end help us perceive the integration of all these capacities in our original self. At the end we experience a deep sense of integration, well being and lucidity of conscience.
