Human Potential Movement
The Human Potential Movement is a cultural and social movement that emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, focusing on the belief that individuals can achieve their fullest potential. It emphasizes personal growth, self-awareness, and the development of human capabilities through various practices, including psychology, education, and holistic health. Influential figures in this movement include Abraham Maslow, known for his hierarchy of needs, and Carl Rogers, who promoted client-centered therapy.
This movement has led to the establishment of various workshops, seminars, and organizations aimed at fostering personal development. It has also influenced fields such as psychotherapy, coaching, and wellness, encouraging people to explore their inner strengths and improve their quality of life.
