My Vision &
Mission Statement

Applied Zen Meditation & Core-Self Intelligence — the personal calling, values, and methodologies that shape Dr. Bonnici's life work.

The Mission

As a Zen Master Teacher and Counselor specializing in Applied Meditation Therapy® and Core-Self Mindfulness, my mission is to assist individuals, couples, families, private enterprises, communities, and public institutions to actualize the farther reaches of human consciousness, peak embodiment, life fulfillment, and behavioral wisdom.

It is my chosen task to continually research, study, and understand the ancient wisdom and embodied life knowledge of the past — to explore the relationship between the strategies of modern psychology and my immediate body wisdoming — and to disseminate the integration of my professional research, therapeutic practice, body wisdoming, and emergent life knowledge through public and private teaching, training, and counseling.

Through this dissemination of knowledge and wisdoming, I hope to provide the practical education and skillful means so that human beings around the world can further enrich and enhance the quality of their daily life and relationships.

The Vision

It is my vision and my passion to engage people of all ages, from differing cultural backgrounds, walks of life, and varying belief systems in a therapeutic process of self-wisdoming — an intimate body core wisdoming capable of actualizing and sustaining the highest levels of personal health, liberated consciousness, emotional intelligence, interpersonal synergy, spiritual enlightenment, joyful motivation, playful productivity, and peak performance.

How I Actualize
My Vision and Calling

I continue to actualize my vision and calling through my Zen counseling and training practice in Hawaii, my global video counseling, training, and consultation services, the international publication of my books and articles, and the continual growth and refinement of the Applied Meditation Psychology Institute.
