Psychological harmonization
— Psychological harmonization refers to a dynamic process of balancing various elements into an organic whole. It is a relational concept that encompasses harmony within the individual (balancing body, mind-heart, and life purposes), between individuals (in families, communities, societies), and between humans and the natural world. Harmonization involves creating connections within and across these domains, recognizing complexity, and achieving balance as a means of fostering sustainability and wellbeing.
The concept of psychological harmonization encompasses various methods and forms aimed at achieving balance within individuals and between individuals and their environments. One approach is the Psychosomatic Harmonization method, which consists of three models:
Aesthetic-Artistic Model: This model emphasizes the use of artistic and aesthetic experiences to promote psychological balance.
Cognitive-Hemodynamic Model: This approach focuses on the interplay between cognitive processes and blood flow dynamics to enhance mental harmony.
Regenerative Model: This model involves regenerative processes aimed at restoring and maintaining psychological well-being.
These models were discussed with medical and psychology students to assess their perceptions and readiness to apply these concepts in practice.
