How to take advantage of psychotherapy sessions

So what should you do so that psychotherapy can help you too? This is where we come to a harsh element. It is almost certain that the key factor in successful therapy is the client. Very reputable researchers claim that it is possible to express this numerically and that the client's contribution is at the level of 30 percent, while, for example, the type of psychotherapy does not exceed 10 percent. So, not only will the therapy take a long time, but you have to do most of the work yourself

Tenderness, a membrane around fragility

For humans, and perhaps for all mammals, tenderness is necessary for survival. Gravity won't slow down and the concrete won't soften just because I'm falling; greed will not decrease and wars will not stop just because some children cry for their fathers or because of hunger. We have to make the world bearable for each other, to soften it, to restrain it, to tame it, sometimes to take a blow originally intended for someone we love

Do you remember what subtlety was?

It seems that some children are born more sensitive than others (though not necessarily more intelligent or talented at the same time). The world that surrounds them leaves a deeper mark on them, their impressions are more intense, they are easily moved to tears by both beauty and pain, regardless of whether it is their own or someone else's, their dreams are stormy, their fears and attachments are equally strong. Where the majority remain indifferent, their nerve endings, metaphorically speaking, are not covered with a thick enough skin, so not only are their sensory experiences sharpened, but the connection between them and feelings is extremely close: cold and fear seem indistinguishable, as well as warmth and pride or infatuation and the taste of salt on the tongue

Reality Matrix Serbia

We have found ourselves in a kind of media meta-reality, where a complete polemic, investigation, manipulation and commercialization of these two massacres, in which children and young people died without any fault, is practically taking place. This is precisely where the eerie paradox of the media in Serbia is hidden, that whether they defend or attack the concept of reality, they actually enter a kind of meta-reality, which in many ways strangely resembles reality.
