How does it feel for you to be stable? Don't think of the external events. Focus on the feeling of stability. Describe it in details. If you don't have a reference, imagine, how would it feel hypothetically to be stable. I'll go first. When I feel stable, I am aware of my posture and breathing, I can think clearly without interruptions, I can enjoy the food I am eating. My shoulders are relaxed. And I don't feel the…

Engagement
20 posts held, back to 13 June 2020 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 10 September 2022. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Reaction mix
2 reactions across 2 posts, in 1 kind.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 2 of the 20 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 2 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 13 June 2020 to 10 September 2022, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

What is that thought/vision that sparks your eyes? Let it live in your mind! Even if it is unreachable/unrealistic/ unachievable... let it spark you from inside

The most essential function for support is breathing. A mobile diaphragm is an absolute necessity for uninhibited breathing. Breathing is for life itself more important than drinking, eating and digesting. The acute awareness of discrepancy between support and contact functions is experienced as anxiety. Lack of oxygen as a prototype of anxiety is, at the same time, experienced as lack of essential support altogether…
Take a clear stand on disallowing abusive behavior between family members - set clear limits. Zinker, J. (1998). In Search of Good Form. GICPress.
Atonement is not an act of justice; it is not based on the acute and responsible awareness of actual need. It stems from the vague sense of obligation which, in the complicated structure of our society, is replacing more and more the spontaneous and discriminating awareness of relationship. Perls, L., & Wysong, J. (1992). Living at the boundary. The Gestalt Journal Press, Inc.
The first skill is to be fully present with one’s full vision and compassionate relatedness: being there. Only when we have taken the time to be moved by others and their experience of being related (or disconnected) can we have the privilege of telling them, in the most compelling way, what we experience in their presence. After people become fascinated with themselves by feeling both heard and seen through the eyes…
There is a function of attention. When we say, “I put my mind on a problem,” we do not mean that we take some physical body from inside ourselves and deposit it heavily and with a thud on that problem. We mean “I concentrate much of my activity and my sensory perceptions on this problem.” We also talk of awareness, which could be described as the fuzzy twin of attention. Awareness is more diffuse than attention - it …

Since the study of the soul was first proposed by Aristotle and others, the old armchair debate has existed about the definition of the psychotherapist’s true role - what we really do. Is what we do a science, a discipline, or an art? This professional identity crisis became an especially thorny one [...]. One’s point of view in this debate seems to create a self-fulfilling prophecy: if you believe it is a science, y…
Contact is the recognition of “otherness,” the awareness of difference. It is the boundary experience of “I and the other.” I would differentiate between “being in contact” and “making contact.” Being in contact indicates a continuing state which gradually tends toward indifference (confluence). Making contact is a foreground function, alert, awake, etc. Perls, L., & Wysong, J. (1992). Living at the boundary. The Ge…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @gestalt_therapy_literature. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
