What Is Attitudinal Healing?
Attitudinal Healing is a therapeutic approach that encourages individuals to view challenges differently, promoting emotional and mental well-being. Developed by Dr. Gerald Jampolsky in the 1970s, it is based on 12 core principles that focus on:
- Releasing fear and embracing love
- Forgiving rather than judging
- Learning from life’s challenges
- Viewing oneself and others with compassion
- Letting go of past emotional pain
At Nishan Rehab Pakistan, Attitudinal Healing is integrated into addiction recovery and mental health programs, providing individuals with tools to change their outlook on life and build resilience.
The 12 Principles of Attitudinal Healing
The foundation of Attitudinal Healing is built on 12 guiding principles that help individuals develop a positive mindset:
- The essence of our being is love
- Health is inner peace, and healing is letting go of fear
- Giving and receiving are the same
- We can let go of the past and the future
- Now is the only time there is, and each instant is for giving
- We can learn to love ourselves and others by forgiving rather than judging
- We can become love-finders rather than fault-finders
- We are students and teachers to each other
- We can focus on the whole of life rather than the fragments
- Since love is eternal, death need not be viewed as fearful
- We can always perceive others as either extending love or giving a call for help
- We can choose and direct ourselves to be peaceful inside, regardless of external circumstances
