From the center… something begins

We are gently launching the Psychosynthesis Institute (Pi) as a virtual space for resources and training in personal and professional development in service of social transformation, and as an evolving center for global hubs offering in-person initiatives and programming.

Like pi in mathematics, describing the infinite relationship between a circle and its center, our experience in teaching and sharing psychosynthesis reflects an ongoing movement between inner awareness and outer expression; between what emerges within and what takes form in the world.

Rooting & Evolving

Pi has evolved from Synthesis Center San Francisco as our work with psychosynthesis deepened in purpose and widened in scope over time.

Like many psycho-spiritual traditions this unfolding moves through phases of differntiation, taking shape in diverse forms as it evolves.

Our intention is to hold this process with care, so that these forms are honored in their distinctiveness, and our individual, collaborative, and collective efforts can grow in coherence rather than division. 

The Psychosynthesis Institute (Pi) is one contribution within a wider field, shaped by many, past and present and into the future. Psychosynthesis continues to be shared through the many programs, centers, and organizations carrying and interpreting Assagioli’s work in varied expressions.

In Service of Personal & Social Transformation

Our orientation is to offer tools for personal and professional development in service of social transformation, honoring Roberto Assagioli’s vision that self-realization is not an end in itself, but a first step toward right human relations and a more conscious and unified humanity.

While we will continue to offer professional training, our deeper commitment is to bring psychosynthesis into everyday life by offering resources, programs and experiences that support personal growth and self-development. We are committed to sharing the transformative gifts of psychosynthesis with a wider community.

Our Unfolding

This will be a gentle and gradual transition.

Current programs continue and these will be integrated here over time as new offerings take shape.

This is an opening, into a larger unfolding.

Psychosynthesis

Deepening Purpose ~ Widening Scope

Depths & Heights 

Psychosynthesis is a transpersonal psychology that explores the depths and heights of human experience.

The psyche is understood as as a living, dynamic whole with every aspect connected and evolving through a gentle but powerful process of bringing what is hidden or unresolved into awareness, while also awakening what is most vital, meaningful and alive within us.

Continuity & Expansion

Pi reflects a deepening of purpose and a widening of our scope in how psychosynthesis is experienced and shared.

Emerging from the foundation of Synthesis Center San Francisco, we are held within an international community of practitioners, facilitators, students and graduates with connections across North America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, India, Australia, and New Zealand.

This breadth of participation brings a range of cultural perspectives and lived experience, enriching both the learning environment and the ways in which the work is carried forward.

Co-Creating A Living Network

The institute will serve as a virtual center for a gradual formation of hubs, offering in-person programs and initiatives across diverse locations and contexts. We envision this as a living network of locally grounded expressions, each responsive to its own place and community, and held in relationship with a wider field.

This orientation is inspired by the Istituto di Psicosintesi founded by Roberto Assagioli, with its center at Casa Assagioli in Florence and its network of semi-autonomous hubs throughout Italy.

Within this model, both the center and local initiatives support one another in holding the core foundations of the work of self-development through shared commitment and collaboration.

At the same time, each hub is shaped by its own context, bringing forward its own distinct character and expression, much like regional traditions that share a common foundation while offering their own flavor.

Common Ground & Distinct Expression

In this way, a common ground is sustained, while distinct expressions continue to come into form.

This is both our inspiration and our vision as we move forward supported by a growing community of advisors, facilitators, coaches, students and participants.
