Zertifikat für Spirituelle Wegbegleitung

The Spiritual Guidance Mentor Training (SGMT) certificate was developed for individuals who wish to mentor and guide others on their Spiritual Path and learn more about themselves. This mentoring is a kind of holistic coaching that engages body, mind, and spirit. Students will learn how to provide support, encouragement, and direction to spiritual seekers while obtaining the necessary skills and experience to serve others. A spiritual guidance mentor operates within a focused set of issues that most seekers face at some point. A spiritual guidance mentor is not a psychotherapist or licensed counsellor but rather acts as a wise spiritual advisor or an experienced guide along the Spiritual Path.

A useful spiritual guidance mentor is someone who is actively engaged in a set of spiritual disciplines, who has a clear sense of personal ideals, regular prayer and meditation life, and an ongoing study of one’s dreams. People already working in these professions find great value in the SGMT certificate program: counsellors, social workers, psychologists, teachers, art therapists, yoga instructors, energy workers, clergy, health care providers, nonprofit professionals, and those in community and prison outreach. The SGMT certificate can also enhance one’s own spiritual life and foster personal spiritual growth.

Founded by Edgar Cayce and a dedicated group of supporters in Virginia Beach, VA, Atlantic University is an institution focused on the integration of body, mind, and spirit as an important means of personal transformation and achieving higher human potential. The university emphasises each individual’s contribution to the whole and the importance of service in the affairs of humankind.

Making use of modern technologies, the university offers two distinct master's degrees, two post-graduate certificates, and two noncredit, continuing education opportunities. With faculty as experts in their field of study, each brings a wealth of knowledge and experience into the classroom, breathing life into the multidimensional curriculum. As a spiritually centred and mindfully focused institution of higher learning, students are encouraged to experience not only personal transformation but also share their experiences socially and globally.
