Πώς μπορώ να εμπιστευτώ τα μυστικά μου σε ένα ξένο άνθρωπο;
Η ΕΧΕΜΥΘΕΙΑ είναι κάτι που πρέπει να χαρακτηρίζει έναν ψυχίατρο. Γι αυτό και δίνουμε τόση βαρύτητα στο γεγονός να επιλέξετε ψυχίατρο με άδεια ασκήσεως επαγγέλματος και όχι όποιον / όποια νά'ναι. Το ΑΠΟΡΡΗΤΟ μεταξύ ψυχίατρου - Πελάτη είναι ηθικά και νομοθετικά κατοχυρωμένο και ισχύει απαρέγκλιτα για κάθε επαγγελματία. Επισκεπτόμενοι ένα / μία επαγγελματία psixiatro πρέπει να είμαστε ΑΠΟΛΥΤΩΣ σίγουροι πως ό,τι λέμε μένει ΑΥΣΤΗΡΩΣ μεταξύ μας. Αν, για οποιονδήποτε λόγο, νιώσετε πως δεν μπορείτε να εμπιστευτείτε τον ειδικό που επιλέξατε, τότε ψάξτε να βρείτε κάποιον άλλον με τον οποίο (ή την οποία) θα νιώθετε άνετα και ζεστά. Είναι πολύ σημαντικό να υπάρχει εμπιστοσύνη μεταξύ Πελάτη kai ψυχίατρου
ILearn to Forgive Others No Matter
WhatA little while ago I wrote a post around the importance of learning how to practice self-forgiveness. In that same vein it is essential to learn how to practice forgiveness no matter what. This may sound extreme, but let me explain. Forgiveness, as you may have heard or experienced, is simply the act of letting go of the burden that you carry from another person who has hurt you out of their own pain, ignorance or confusion. It’s a practice of freeing up your energy to focus on things that incline toward your own health and well-being or the health and well-being of others.There’s a saying:“Not forgiving is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to get hurt or die.”The reality is holding onto resentment, literally keeps our cortisol running and makes us sick.The wonderful thing about forgiveness is it really only takes one to tango. You only need one person to forgive – you! You don’t even need the offender.Right now, if you have someone you’re holding a grudge against or are resenting, imagine the two of you tied together in a tug of war and imagine the cord being cut…you no longer have the tension of the rope, you are free!Of course it’s not often this easy and it’s a practice to forgive, but what else is there to do? Hold onto the resentment so we continue to suffer? We’ve already been hurt, why continue to inflict further suffering on ourselves?“Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.”—Paul BoeseIf you are open to letting go of the resentment-habit and opening up to a better future, play with the following short forgiveness practice from The Now Effect:Allow this to be a choice point to practice forgiveness.Think of someone who has hurt you or caused you pain (maybe not the person who has hurt you most) whom you are holding a grudge against right now. Visualize the time you had been hurt by this person and feel the pain you still carry. Hold tightly to your unwillingness to forgive. Now observe what emotion you are feeling. Is it anger, resentment, sadness? Also use your body as a barometer and notice physically what you feel. Are you tense anywhere or feeling heavy? Now bring awareness to your thoughts; are they hateful, spiteful thoughts?Feel this burden that lives inside when you hold so tightly to past hurts. Now ask yourself, “Who is suffering? Have I carried this burden long enough? Am I willing to forgive?” If not, that is okay, perhaps the time will come when you’re ready.If you are ready practice “Breathing in, I acknowledge the pain, breathing out, forgiving and releasing this burden from my heart and mind.”Continue this as long as it is supportive to you.
Six Smart Steps to Express and Resolve Negative Feelings
By MIKE BUNDRANT
Putting feelings into words produces measurable therapeutic effects in your brain.
Here are six steps to doing it well.
Step 1: Label What You Feel
If you don’t know what you are feeling, then you are lost for the get-go. It’s true that many of us feel things without consciously knowing what we’re feeling. Labeling the feeling is critical to knowing what to do next.
In fact, research suggests that if you label your feelings, you will handle them better.
Labels ‘contain’ feelings, contextualize them, and point the way toward resolution.
Are you feeling anger, sadness, grief, fear, humiliation, annoyance, frustration, disappointment? Labeling your feelings inside your own mind sets the stage for expressing yourself toward resolution.
Step 2: Place the Feeling In Proper Context
Placing your feelings in context is particularly important if you are experiencing negative states. Let’s say that you are angry. Angry about what, specifically? Getting specific is the key here because you don’t want to throw in everything but the kitchen sink.
So, you’re angry at your friend. What happened? He failed to show up to your lunch date on time. Ok – keep it to that. Don’t sit there and stew on everything your friend has done to disappoint you in the past. This will not help you express what you are feeling now.
Generalizing will only serve to overwhelm you and create defensiveness in your friend.
Step 3: Speak Out While Staying Consciously Connected to the Feeling
Locate the feeling in your body and begin to talk.
I am angry because…
I am feeling sad because…..
I am feeling anxious about…
And so on. While you speak, stay aware of the feeling. Don’t just let the feeling take over. Consciously monitor it. As you speak and the feeling comes out, it will shift. New thoughts will come to mind. Stay on top of it. If you do it this way, you will work through the feeling productively – and be more likely to come to resolution.
Step 4: Speak with Maturity
Of course, if you fly off the handle when expressing negative feelings, you are likely to 1) create more problems with other people and 2) fail to resolve how you are feeling within yourself.
Why? Because when you act immaturely, others will react to that and often refuse to give you what you need to resolve your own feelings. Maturity is a personal paradigm – use it!
Step 5: Accept Feedback
So, there you are. You know what you are feeling. You have spoken it while staying conscious, mature and specific. Once you’ve gotten it all out, you are in a position to receive feedback.
Be open to it. You might learn something that changes it all for you. For example, your friend had a valid reason for being late. Who knows what’s going on, really, in someone else’s life?
Step 6: Reevaluate your Feelings
After receiving feedback, check in with yourself. How do you feel now? Are your feelings resolved? Or, what’s left? If you have feelings left over, begin at step one!
