This is an interview with Amy and Arnold Mindell, American psychologists, the founders of the process-oriented school of psychology, and well–known authors. Amy and Arny worked together as a team, teaching and working on conflict resolution and organizational development projects for small and large businesses, cities, Aboriginal communities, and governments. They collaborated with the United Nations' UNESCO, teaching conflict resolution and open forum facilitation. They invited us to their home in Yachats, Oregon. Our meeting with Arny and Amy was initially planned as an interview on creativity, but we ended up discussing a wide range of topics. The masters shared how they met and found their calling, talked about physics and touched on the topics of life and death. Arny is no longer physically present; he has passed away. However, his ideas and light continue to stay with us. Arnold Mindell is a physicist, psychotherapist, writer and founder of the process-oriented approach in psychology. His books have been published in 20 languages. Arnold's approach is a practice of mindfulness, awareness, flexibility and mobility, the ability to observe and follow subtle signals in a person, group or organisation. Following them leads to incredible discoveries, after which everything falls into place, complements each other and forms a unique harmony. Amy Mindell is a dancer and actress, as well as a doctor of psychology, psychotherapist and teacher at the Centre for Process Work in Portland (USA). She leads workshops in process-oriented psychology at Esalen and other major psychological centres, teaches students around the world, speaks on radio, and writes books. She is also known for her contributions to the development of the metaskill concept in process-oriented psychology, for her work with people in comatose states, and for her application of the process work paradigm to art and music. ___________________________________________ 00:00 Meeting Arnold and Amy Mindell 02:05 Arnold Mindell - physics and psychology 05:23 Amy Mindell - dance, theatre and psychology 07:33 Process-orientated work in psychology 09:45 Working with bodily symptoms and dreams 14:43 Dreams and flirtations - what are they? 20:47 How can dreaming help with creativity? 27:05 About small and big events 29:12 Play and creativity 33:09 Follow the process - the situation will show the way. 34:03 Why history repeats itself 39:42 Deep democracy 41:54 Problems in life are normal and useful. 43:47 Death is a part of life 54:43 On physics, its relationship to psychology and working with world conflicts ======================== SUBSCRIBE to our channel @mamakifilm/featured ============================================ Arnold Mindell Youtube channel @ForArnyMindell Amy Mindell's Youtube channel ============================================ Join us at On social media: Instagram Facebook Telegram VK #arnoldmindell #amymindell #psychology #interview #humanpsychology #psychotherapy #psychotherapist #dreaming #conflict #life #death #game #processpsychology #relationships #love #motivation
