CPP is a mindfulness-centered therapeutic approach that encourages individuals to cultivate deep awareness of their body and mind for self-exploration and healing. CPP operates under the premise that every individual possesses an inherent state of health, awareness, and wisdom, obscured by conditioned patterns developed throughout life.
