An Introduction to Naikan Therapy

Questioning can change your entire life. It can uncover hidden power and stifled
dreams inside of you...things you may have denied for many years.
Fran Peavey: Strategic Questioning.

Naikan ( meaning inner looking) is a powerful therapy and method for therapists and
individuals which creates a shift into a new Awareness of love, gratitude and
meaningful life. “Your life will become delighted and full of energy” . . . real happiness” Jianqiu Xu

Naikan was first developed in Japan by Yoshimoto Ishin from an ancient Jodo Shinshu Buddhist practice of
introspection. It is widely used in contemporary Japanese and Chinese psychology as a powerful tool for
self-transformation. It is based upon three strategic questions.
