Episode E097: Therapy is not about techniques

with Ma Moumina

listen to the interview:

In the mid-70s Moumina was a teenage radical feminist living in a feminist commune in London where not even male cats were allowed. She went to India to learn Indian dance and ended up in Poona falling in love with Osho after a talk in which Osho provocatively attacked the women’s liberation. Moumina realised her identification with feminism (and any other beliefs) and started her path of self- discovery which led her to become one of the most experienced therapists in the world of Osho.

Today our guest is Ma Moumina. Moumina took sannyas in 1978 and is a former Director of the Centre for Transformation in the Osho International Meditation Resort in Poona, India. Moumina has been leading workshops and trainings all over the world for over 30 years. She specialises in Pulsation (neo-Reichian emotional release breath-work), Neo-Reichian body type reading, Star Sapphire psychic energy work and Family Constellation therapy.

“The main thing for which I’m forever grateful is that the focus was that it’s coming from inside you. It’s not relying on any technique. It’s coming from Osho. I learnt to trust in a space that has nothing to do with me or my skills. This is what we learnt. We learnt many methods but the method is not the main thing. It was this space of Osho and trust”.
