This weekend my next three days of training in Gestalt therapy took place. This was the penultimate meeting before certification.
At the meeting, I noticed how I had already grown professionally and how I had progressed in my professional development. Both I and other members of our group talked about the fact that in the group they feel more warmth towards the participants. It is very nice.
And I also know that none of this would have happened without our coach Yulia Golovanova!
It is thanks to her that both I and all of us in our group find for ourselves opportunities for personal and professional growth. She is metaphorically for us as a loving, accepting and supportive mother. That mother, whom I did not have as a child, but whom I really, really needed. And I am so glad that such a person still exists in my life.
Julia is a living, not an ideal person, she is sincere, warm and very interesting with her. Sometimes she tells us about her failures and mistakes. And thanks to these stories, I can accept my failures and mistakes.
And Julia also tells us through what difficulties she herself went to what she has now. And this encourages me to move on, despite all the difficulties.
Julia gives the necessary acceptance of me for who I am - with my weaknesses and with my strengths. I am especially supported by the fact that when I forget about my already existing strength, Julia can remind about it. And thus bring me back from the past, in which I still did not know how to do it, to the present, in which I have already learned this.
When I was falling into some strong and difficult experiences, Julia was there and helped me with her presence, her acceptance of my difficult condition. She told me that she understands how hard it is for me and it helped me to get through these experiences and stay more resilient. This acceptance helped me learn to accept my experiences as normal and natural.
After all, as a child, it was not safe for me to show my experiences. Shut up was a common word I heard. And I had to hide my feelings not only from others, but also from myself. Now I am sad to remember this and I am sorry that it was so in my childhood. Although I know that I am not alone in this. And still sad and sorry.
Julia believes in me, believes in my strength, believes in my abilities, and this faith of hers for me is like the faith of a kind mother in her beloved child. And this faith helps me to believe in myself and to take those steps that help me to go to what I want to come to.
I am very grateful to Yulia Golovanova for the fact that she is in my life! Because she is who she is! For the fact that she shares so generously with all of us and with me, including her acceptance and support! Because she loves us and this love is mutual!
So much warmth and gratitude overwhelms me to Yulia!
And I tell her about it with joy!
And at the meeting! And on the internet!
And now I say: Julia, thank you very much for your contribution to me!
This is an invaluable contribution to me!
Thank you for your words of understanding, support, faith in me!
This is very, very valuable and important for me!

Your Own Life Or A Relay Race From Your Childhood? The Right To Your Life Or How To Escape From The Captivity Of Other People's Scripts
Do we ourselves, as adults and successful people, make decisions on our own? Why do we sometimes catch ourselves thinking: "I am now speaking like my mother"?

Say A Word About A Poor Parent Or What We Bring To Our Relationship With Our Children From Our Childhood
Our ideas about the upbringing of children stem not so much from pedagogical and psychological literature as from our childhood experience. From those relationships that we developed with our own parents. We can relate to this in different ways:
HOW DO OUR VALUES AND BELIEFS DAMAGE OUR LIFE?
Can principles, values and beliefs spoil life? Our values, principles and beliefs do not come about for a reason. They make us who we are. We call ourselves doctors, students, husbands, wives and professionals because we have some idea of ourselves.
