✅ If you feel that a classic conversation isn’t enough.
✅ If you’re interested in psychotherapy that embraces the whole person – body, emotions, relationships, and the spiritual dimension.
✅ If you want to find out whether Core Energetics is for you – this workshop is the best place to experience it.

Intro to Core Energetics is a workshop designed to provide a hands-on introduction to the method, its theoretical framework, and the therapeutic style of working.

During this meeting, we will present the theoretical foundations and practical approaches of Core Energetics – an integrative psychotherapeutic approach rooted in analytical psychology, humanistic–existential psychotherapy, and bodywork (bioenergetics).

The workshop is an opportunity to understand the core premises of the model, its theoretical structure, and the way the therapeutic process is conducted from an energetic and characterological perspective.

The Core Energetics model assumes that developmental and relational experiences are organized within the body in the form of chronic tensions and energetic patterns, which co‑create the structure of personality. Therapeutic work involves identifying these patterns, bringing them to awareness, and transforming them through the integration of emotional, cognitive, and somatic experiences.

🌀 During the workshop:
We will present the key concepts of the method (map of consciousness, mask / false self, lower and higher self, character structures).
We will demonstrate the specifics of bodywork in the therapeutic process.
We will discuss the role of working with aggression, sexuality, and life energy in a clinical context.
Participants will have the opportunity to experience elements of this work in a safe, workshop-based environment.

We will answer questions about training and the certification path.

🌀 The workshop also offers the opportunity to:
– Experience body and energy work.
– See what a therapeutic process looks like in this method.
– Feel the dynamics of group work.
– Ask questions about the approach and possibilities for further education.
🧡 Why Core Energetics?
Core Energetics is a psychotherapeutic approach that originates from depth psychology and bodywork. Its foundation is the belief that life experiences are recorded not only in the mind but also in the body – as tensions, blocks, and energetic patterns.
The work integrates multiple levels of experience:
Holistically – by bringing together mind, body, and spirit.
Through the body – using movement, breath, and expression to reach deeper emotional layers.
With the energy of emotions – learning to recognize, express, and transform feelings such as anger, shame, jealousy, fear, or contempt.
With sexuality and vitality – restoring connection with life energy and spontaneity.
With body image – fostering greater acceptance and authenticity.
With relationality – enhancing the ability to feel closeness and communicate sincerely.
Working with the Core Energetics approach leads to greater spontaneity, inner freedom, and emotional maturity. It is a method that not only helps to understand one’s inner experience but also supports its transformation.

🧡 Who is this workshop for?

– Individuals considering beginning professional training in Core Energetics.

Martin Nykodym

Hana Hniličková
Prague, Czech Republic | I gained experience in Core Energetics through four years of professional studies at the Netherlands Institute of Core Energetics (NICE), graduating in 2020. I currently work as an assistant at the Institute of Core Energetics Greece (ICEG) in Athens. I am also a local organizer and participant of the Core Strokes® training, developed by Dirk Marivoet, MSc, from Belgium.
Studying abroad and working in an international environment gave me deep insight into people within their cultural contexts. Each culture shapes our personality in its own way, yet at the deepest level, we all share similar longings, desires, and needs. My mission is to help people reach and connect with these deep inner places, to know them, and to allow their expression. I believe this brings a sense of fulfillment and inner peace that we all long for.
In 2022, I opened Slunná 27 — a therapeutic center in Prague. Together with more than twenty therapists, we create a space where clients can rediscover safety on their journey toward their true, authentic Self and inner freedom.
