About Satir Model Therapy
Peace Within, Peace Between and Peace among - Virginia Satir
Simply, improve your relationship and the communication between you and
your family members by freeing yourself from limiting and dysfunctional
coping patterns obtained during your childhood.
The therapy will help you to have new choices and new positive perspective
into your life and your family’s life.
Everyone has the internal resources needed for change and growth and you deserve a better life.
The Five Freedoms are:
1. The freedom to see and hear what is here, instead of what “should” be, was, or will be.
2. The freedom to say what one feels and thinks, instead of what one “should” feel and think.
3. The freedom to feel what one feels, instead of what one “ought” to feel.
4. The freedom to ask for what one wants, instead of always waiting for permission.
5. The freedom to take risks in one’s own behalf, instead of choosing to be only “secure” and not rocking the boat.

Boosting your self-esteem
Self-esteem is the base, and helps people to grow.
For example if a mother would say to a child: “don’t pay attention to your father he does not know what he is doing”, and the next thing the mother would say: “respect your father”, it is at that moment that the conflict begins ( Virginia Satir).
Growing up with an inheritance of insecurity and low self-esteem, makes you sometimes look at a glass of water, as being half-empty.
you blame yourself for things that aren't your fault, you feel guilty for spending time or money on yourself, you hate yourself because you’re not good enough.
You can definitely change all these negative thoughts by changing the way you think.
Help yourself to develop positive energy, help yourself to develop a new consciousness about yourself.
