Presented article originates from a deep anxiety about possibility, strategy and purpose of a philosophical thinking, such activity and practice directly expressed by the Greek verb askeo, as well as from strongly held belief that the most considerable philosophical problem, like also the source of the most philosophers troubling heaviest torment is – in fact – philosophy by itself – especially in the aspect of its absence, paradoxically stuck together with philosophizing deeply noticed need. Starting point is A. Berleant’ diagnosis of a state of separation among three Kantian “kingdoms”: kingdom of knowledge, kingdom of ethics and the one of judgement, that immobilizes philosophising in its aim to makes the man a perfect human being. An essential inspiration to cope with the problem brought us an American neopragmatist philosopher and (soma-)aesthetic R. Shusterman’s book Practicing Philosophy. Pragmatism and the Philosophical Life. Our inquiry starts with a set of directly posed and powerful questions about philosophizing, its aim and its derivable advantages. That is: What does it mean to live “philosophically”? Why is it worthy to care for a “philosophical” life (what most philosophers, beginning from Plato, strongly admit)? How to achieve life like this? And finally – whether it is a reasonable effort to strive for ones engagement into the sphere of philosophy? Premise of a proposed answer may be found in a conscientiously reed out Plato. The key is to recognize that Greek he philosophia should back be understood simply as a philosophikos bios, combined with its holistic strategy (the art of living).

This paper lists the problems that philosophical therapy deals with and tries to provide a definition of philosophical therapy. In particular, we find references to Homeric psychology, contemporary therapeutic trends, and examples of the use of philosophical therapy (observation records after individual sessions of philosophical therapy or group work). This article develops the connections between philosophical therapy and the ancient understanding of philosophy (ancient spiritual exercises). The focal point of our considerations concerns the application of philosophical therapy to the process of becoming a person. ------------- Received: 27/01/2020. Reviewed: 03/03/2020.

Autor wylicza problemy, którymi zajmuje się terapia filozoficzna i podejmuje próbę podania jej definicji. W tekście znajdziemy odwołania do psychologii homeryckiej, współczesnych nurtów terapeutycznych oraz przykładów zastosowania terapii filozoficznej (zapisy obserwacji osób po odbyciu indywidualnej sesji terapii filozoficznej lub pracy grupowej). W artykule ukazany został związek terapii filozoficznej ze starożytnym pojmowaniem filozofii (antyczne ćwiczenia duchowe). Główną osią, wokół której prowadzone są rozważania jest zastosowanie terapii filozoficznej w procesie stawania się osobą. ------------- Otrzymano: 27/01/2020. Zrecenzowano: 03/03/2020.
