Wpływ Embrace Therapy® w ujęciu analizy transakcyjnej na domknięcie potrzeb („głasków”) wewnętrznego dziecka, zmianę perspektywy oceny sytuacji i uwolnienie trudnych emocji

Abstract

The Embrace Therapy® (ET®) method is correlated with the concept of Transactional Analysis (TA), which is currently considered one of the most holistic trends in personality perception. Transactional analysis (TA), as a theory of self-states (Parent, Adult, Child), provides a coherent and simple system for defining one's own thoughts, feelings and behaviors, both in relationships with other people and with oneself. Its practical therapeutic application has to do with work and communication with the Inner Child (I-Child), which is the most primary and essential component of every personality. The ET® method combines the mental and spiritual aspects and is used to communicate with the Inner Child (ID) from the level of the Divine Parent (DP), i.e. the Spiritual Consciousness, which in the TA concept corresponds to the Adult Self. The ET® method is used to release difficult emotions such as fear, anxiety, shame, guilt, helplessness, anger, sadness, grief. The ET® method allows to release emotions about memories from the distant or near past, from the present and from imagined fears of the future, as well as changing the perspective of a given event. The empirical part of the article presents research results based on reports from brain wave recordings before and after an ET® session, which indicate a significant reduction in stress and an increase in calmness and peace in the subjects. The Biofeedback measurement method was used to study 8 volunteers. The study measured the parameters of all 8 waves (Delta, Theta, Alpha, SMR, Beta 1, Beta2, HiBeta, and Gamma) and the conclusions were drawn based on reports from these studies.
