Most of the time when we've gone two weeks without meeting the energy in the room is quite heavy...this time nobody was "in crisis" (quite the opposite). Our therapist pushed us to explore things when our emotions weren't so raw. A lot of "aha!" moments. It was good.Stephanie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08117481136259148223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-79590623524403900092011-10-08T16:00:09.572-05:002011-10-08T16:00:09.572-05:00i've heard that the best time to do therapy is...i've heard that the best time to do therapy is when you are healthy and feeling good. i've heard the really smart couples (i don't know how they do it) go to counseling while the relationship is still great. <br />the only time i went was after my dad died and i wanted to talk to someone, and it helped. <br />sliced open without the pain. yes, there are different sorts of pain when digging deep within, that's also been my experience.Ed Pilollahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09139531369534586168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-91295042275467563822011-10-08T10:16:04.819-05:002011-10-08T10:16:04.819-05:00Sounds like a wonderful session.

When you're in therapy because of a crisis it's healing. When you're not in crisis the real growth can begin.Stephanie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08117481136259148223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-50387875520306600592011-10-08T05:08:51.836-05:002011-10-08T05:08:51.836-05:00Kudos to you.

I'll confess the concept of looking deeper frightens me to death - I always think, what if there is nothing deeper?light208https://www.blogger.com/profile/08963433460783023131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-85684592000186314432011-10-07T20:11:29.049-05:002011-10-07T20:11:29.049-05:00What a great analogy. :)
And here I was thinking ...What a great analogy. :)<br /><br />And here I was thinking you were going to talk about Steve Jobs. (Not that there's anything wrong with that)<br /><br />I often think I should get back to therapy. Course, my therapist is now Youngest's therapist, so I have no idea how that would work. I've never done group sessions, could be good for me.Julihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097214923216967086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-16349704576075683942011-10-07T16:48:41.509-05:002011-10-07T16:48:41.509-05:00You walked in healthy; you walked out healthier.

What a compliment that is to your group leader and to all of you who participate in that group.<br /><br />Peeling back layers--as with an onion--is never easy. There is, I think, always the fear that at the center of our life, of ourselves, there is a void.<br />We fear finding nothing there.<br /><br />My experience is being and has been this: that at the deep center of myself I find the Holy Oneness of All Creation of which you, Stephanie, and I and all your readers and all humanity are a part.<br /><br />I find that very comforting and awe-fulling. I hope you do too.<br /><br />Peace.Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00612299013780771262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-4607692012749717502011-10-07T14:33:46.182-05:002011-10-07T14:33:46.182-05:00They always want us to look deeper, but when I do ...They always want us to look deeper, but when I do that, I usually walk away with a Migraine...Where is the glue, I think I will glue my peel back in place!Average Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05171277050030497007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-10349196249421709652011-10-07T11:57:52.234-05:002011-10-07T11:57:52.234-05:00I feel the opposite after each day of work...just ...I feel the opposite after each day of work...just a little bit sicker.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695512731756454294.post-16778987615245185042011-10-07T11:54:01.856-05:002011-10-07T11:54:01.856-05:00Very interesting.
