Is the Hoffman Process for you?

The Hoffman Process is a seven-day residential personal development course. Created by Bob Hoffman over fifty years ago, it’s now available in sixteen countries around the world. More than 100,000 people have benefited from the tools and techniques we teach on this experiential programme.

The Process is not a quick fix, or a replacement for therapy. What it offers is the opportunity to delve into your past. You will discover why certain patterns of behaviour keep coming up in your life and be offered the opportunity either to stay as you are - in a reactive way of being - or to embrace change and approach your future better-equipped.

At heart, the Process is an individual journey, taken in a safe and loving environment. Each day, our team of experienced facilitators will guide you through a series of different techniques. Sometimes you’ll find yourself sitting in silence, journalling or going out in nature. At other times, you’ll work in a group, doing guided visualisations, bio-energetic work and some Gestalt-based exercises.

People who allow themselves to commit fully to the Process emerge with a deep sense of their own resilience. They gain a greater awareness of life’s possibilities and a commitment to a better way of being.
