Give Yourself Space to Transform: Episode 70

According to humanistic psychologist Carl Rogers, there are three conditions necessary for transformation in therapy – empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard. When a therapist offers these three gifts, it’s likely that a client will start to see the world differently, eventually in a way that is more beneficial for them.

So often we do not allow ourselves these three gifts. We do not give ourselves a break when we’re not feeling 100%, we do not express what we are feeling, and we don’t exactly love ourselves when we’re in a difficult situation.

We never need to be in a hurry to change, to be better. In fact, when we allow ourselves that space to be exactly as we are, that is paradoxically what allows us to change.

Every day of our lives, we can give ourselves space… With a little luck and a little love, we might well transform.
