Let's talk a little bit, in simple words, about the organismic theory in gestalt therapy. One of the revolutionary concepts of Gestalt therapy at the time it was conceived was to consider, directly and clearly, the human being as an organism with basic organismic needs for sleeping, eating, having companionship, making love, etc.
This gives two important clues. First, that we all have needs at each present moment in our lives that want to be covered. Secondly, the fact that we are organisms clarifies that we are in interdependency with our environment, since we definitely need it to cover our needs, and if we are not in it we cannot survive. By environment, we mean whatever surrounds our organism, the ground and the air that support us, the water, the plants that provide us food, our house, the objects we have in our house, the colors, the shapes, the temperature, other people and other living beings, like animals, insects and so on.
Many people ask me, what is self-organization?

This may be a wise move as studies are showing that silence is much more important to your brains than you might think.
Η θεραπεία είναι μια διαδικασία κατά την διάρκεια της οποίας το άτομο εστιάζει την επίγνωσή του όπου είναι αναγκαίο την κάθε στιγμή. Το ιδανικό είναι να επικεντρώνει την προσοχή του στο εδώ και τώρα και να είναι ελεύθερο από παρελθοντικές ιστορίες και μελλοντικές ανησυχίες, έτσι ώστε να μπορεί να συγκεντρώνεται στην κάθε στιγμή στο εδώ και τώρα και να ακολουθεί τη ροή σε ό,τι συμβαίνει...
Παραδείγματος χάριν, έχετε την αίσθηση της πείνας, βλέπετε μερικά κεράσια και θα θέλατε να τα φάτε. Ή κάποια στιγμή, νιώθετε την ανάγκη να μείνετε μόνοι και να ακούσετε μουσική. Οτιδήποτε που μπορείτε να συνειδητοποιήσετε στην παρούσα στιγμή!
