A marriage of somatic psychotherapy and spiritual development.
THE METHOD
Core Energetics works with the whole person. Through the body, we meet the patterns that limit our vitality—and develop the capacity to live, relate and create with greater truth
AN EMBODIED PROCESS
Change is not only something we understand. It is something we practise.
Our history is held in the body: in posture, breath, muscular tension, movement and the ways we make contact. Core Energetics brings compassionate attention to these patterns.
Movement, expression, reflection and relationship help reconnect feeling with awareness. The work is active, grounded and carefully contained.

OUR ROOTS
Built on a living lineage.
Core Energetics was created by John Pierrakos, MD, a Greek-born psychiatrist who studied with Wilhelm Reich and later co-founded Bioenergetic Analysis with Alexander Lowen. In 1978, he founded the first Institute for Core Energetics in New York. Today, Core Energetics institutes span the Americas, Europe, and Australia — including here in Greece, where the Institute of Core Energetics Greece has trained mental health, medical, and helping professionals since 2013, alongside anyone deepening their own personal growth.
