What's Gestalt

Gestalt

Gestalt is a German word which means "organized frame that is complete. It means is

that the human being is a whole creature constantly striving to realize their potential .

When the person does not realize his potential, he does not live in balance and harmony

as a result it is not possible free choice.. Gestalt therapys goal is to " deliver "

denied re parts and / or suppressed. Within the human personality to allow him to live a

full and satisfying life.

Through the emotional experience a person can close "unfinished business" which are

taken from early childhood behavior and allow free but conditional .

- When a person declares that he wants to behave in a certain way and finds himself

acting completely different without his being able to control his behavior.

Without having even aware why he behaves as he behaves he can change his behavior

and if he is aware of why he behaves the way it does - this awareness is cognitive

awareness only and does not necessarily causes a person to make a difference in his life.

He is not aware of what is blocking it from translating the cognitive awareness of this

change.

It deals with Gestalt therapy - to produce corrective experiences that complement circles.

All the rationalizations do not work , the key phrase of the people who come to me is: "I

know it does not make sense how I act it even foolish and I am aware of that,

but I cannot using logic to change it , it's stronger than me , I did not manage it but this

manager me "

Instead, over the logic , and starts to experience traumatic events which have occurred in

early childhood of our lives are not girls, are experiences,

and therefore only a corrective can close the circle ,

To complete an unfinished business, approach Gestalt we reconstruct the traumatic

experience that was a person and meeting it with a sense of helplessness,

frustration, anxiety or fear and produce for a corrective experience which returns control

of his life and "separates " the condition automatic between past and present .

Person can then actually choose and take full responsibility for his life and through his

conduct, since it does not prevent more childhood experiences that manage it ,

but he runs them. Administer it means not only taking responsibility but also take

ownership - property, clearly state that the particular this personality is mine and

is an integral part of me - only then when that part is the ability for misappropriation

ownership " it becomes really part of me and outside of me - from the moment

it is created pattern completion Gestalt completion

This approach allows people who find themselves stuck for many years understanding

logical " without the ability to change , to create an experiential corrective experience

that allows harmony and exercise the real potential and live life to it's fullest.
