MediaDB / «Alternative to survival. Introduction to psychosynthesis" Ivan Strigin: download fb2, read online
About the book: 2014 / We have been in relationships all our lives. How others treat us is how we build a vision of ourselves: this happens in childhood in our family and in adulthood with our partner, children, at work and in many other relationships. In them we can be initially loved, accepted with all our traits, with a recognized right to realize our own desires and our own meaning in life. Or we can be rejected, realizing someone else’s vision of ourselves in life, pinching ourselves. Figuratively speaking, other people can either see us as we are - real, or want to see us as different - and then we, the real ones, get lost and disappear. The book Alternative to Survival is, first of all, about this: about relationships and how relationships with ourselves, with others and with the world determine our lives. Psychosynthesis is the second theme of the book. This school of psychotherapy, founded shortly after the advent of psychoanalysis, offers frameworks, models and ways of describing our development in the field of relationships that can help us regain the ability to live our lives.
