"Recalibrate, Reorient, Realign"
The work of G.I. Gurdjieff, and what subsequently came out of Gurdjieff's work with the Enneagram, has been one of Mamoon's deepest inspirations for how he approaches this body, heart, mind alternative therapy.
Mamoon calls it “alternative therapy” since the practice isn't just about analyzing the mind (thinking), but also about reflecting on the heart (feeling) and the body (instinct).
Together with Mamoon, you'll track what patterns occur when you lose presence in the body, heart or mind, as well as what happens when you bring presence to each of them.
Our presence typically gravitates to one or two centers. Perhaps you're present with your thoughts and feelings, but rarely present in the body. Or you may be present with your body and thoughts, but without much presence in the heart.
This alternative therapy is about bringing more and more presence into each of the three centers (body, heart, mind) simultaneously.
You'll meet remotely with Mamoon by phone or video call (depending on your preference). Sessions center around bringing awareness to your mind, body, and heart centers.
Together you'll reflect on re-occurring thoughts, emotions, physical activities, intimate relationships, work-life, home-life behaviors, instinctual or compulsive reactions, inner narratives, self-beliefs, daily routines… as well as your central desires, fears, passions, dreams, doubts, concerns, ideals, fascinations, creations, and consumptive patterns.
Nothing is right or wrong in terms of what surfaces through the reflections. The intention is to bring awareness to the body, heart, and mind centers, without any expectations of what should or shouldn't arise. Not to alter, judge, or criticize the patterns… but to see them clearly: with compassion, curiosity and the presence of another (in this case Mamoon), who can be a welcoming witness alongside you.
"To be witnessing and welcoming of all that arises within the body, heart, and mind" … is a good way to sum up the approach to this alternative therapy.
The guided breathing practice in this 1:1 alternative therapy is different from what Mamoon does on Om Haiku, drawn instead from a technique he learned at the retreat center where 14 Step takes place.
Mamoon also incorporates different cathartic exercises, herbal remedies, music playlists, + offers discounts for 1:1 alternative therapy clients to do 14 Step (in-person detox retreats in Costa Rica).
Simple. You steer the reflections based on what feels most alive in your mind, body, and heart.
Over the weeks, you'll notice that by bringing certain patterns into awareness… and balancing the perception with compassion… the mind, body and heart naturally recalibrate, reorient and realign.

That said, he only takes on a small handful of one-on-one clients to maintain focus, reaching capacity at 7 individual processes.
