ON GESTALT TO MY UNDERSTANDING (9 th delivery) AGAINST
believe that the contribution of humanistic psychology Gestalt is rich in many ways, but if one of them stands out, in my opinion, is the contribution made regarding the therapy formats group, or Group Therapy.
We are all, at some point in our lives or continuously, in a group. Some characters are more akin to belong to groups, and others are more solitary. But the group membership is critical in many animal species, and in humans as well.
When we told a group of people, neuroticism @ a @ each (remember in previous releases?) starts strongly : Show the "best" of each; behave as we were taught that we must do, Compare, ay! the comparison. If you have said or not said, if I do not have responded. If you have done better than me, if because I treated differently ..., If I wanted to say but dare not, if it is my turn to speak in public, I lock, etc, etc ...
The group is itself a breeding ground for emotions and conflicts. Sean internal bone, which does not manifest, or whether external, ie manifest openly what I think happens, or happens to another and mounted the mess. And this "mess" affects every member of the group and group unity as well.
Yes, very often conflicts and difficulties are multiplied in the groups and is useful and necessary to re-register otherwise first, and as always, within one or a , and then pay attention and awareness as I stand, where and place in the group.
sometimes commented that Gestalt Therapy is like a laboratory where we can explore and experience what in life show costs us, or feel, or understand that feeling. In group therapy understand that is especially well. is one of the best laboratories for learning.
Perls (remember, the creator of Gestalt) emphasized the effectiveness of individual group framework on why acted more forcefully in the resistance of the individual. He was extraordinary working a kind of individual to the group session, using it as a special troupe, which became an energy resonator.
Perls said if the Group ceases to be "the person as it is, it becomes a healing agent. And this is, for me, a very important point. To which Perls concerned, is the space not believe absolutely healer.
The trial is usually a constant in our minds. learned to judge and to judge others rather small. Gradually, it has built an interior or a judge, who is always talking. Who knows what is right and what is wrong. This character inside, causing much suffering to people. Power
show, to let you be as you are with a group, and receive the look and energy of the trial not by the people who compose it, is a healer in itself.
will conclude with a quote from William Schutz , recognized university professor and a founder of the Esalen Institute in California, which developed a unique technique of working group, joining in it, several different disciplines. Says
As others understand the differences disappear and instead there is the human uniqueness, the same needs, the same fears, the same struggles and the same desires. We are all one.
Until next month, thanks!
