Coma Communication Information

COMA COMMUNICATION is our organization located in Victoria, BC, Canada. We practice coma work as originated by Drs. Amy and Arnold Mindell. Coma communication means lovingly noticing and encouraging verbal and nonverbal communication of people in altered consciousness. We believe that as long as there is breath, there is consciousness and communication. "The purpose of life is to know the divine, to be with it and connect it somehow with other humans, so love is something that organizes everything we do. Love means openness to all states of consciousness. Love means openness to a person in the midst of dreaming and coma. ~ Arnold Mindell, Ph D, author of Coma: Key to Awakening. Coma work is taught under the larger discipline of Process Work, also known as Process Oriented Psychology. The main North American centre is the Process Work Institute located in Portland, Oregon. Process Work operates through the deeply democratic belief that all parts of a person, the environment, relationships, groups, and the world are valuable and meaningful. We work with a diversity of issues through body symptoms, mental and emotional difficulties, relationships, families, small and large groups, businesses, non government organizations, systems, politics, and global issues. In Process Work we rely on finding the seeds of life and growth within difficulties and diversity.
