Have you heard of Transactional Analysis?
Transactional analysis is understanding yourself and others around you, nurturing your holistic self and relationships.
Transactional analysis is all about communication within 3 ego states, Parent Adult Child. We think, feel and behave differently in each of these ego states.
Parent is learned behaviour and attitudes from a place of an authority figure, maybe with limiting beliefs from childhood. There are two different types of parent, nurturing parent and critical parent.
Adult represents our rational thinking and decision making, being objective and responding to situations based on the present.
Child reflects our emotions and reactions based from childhood experiences, this can be emotions such as vulnerability, playfulness or even rebellion . There are two different types of child adaptive child and free child.
We can identify unhealthy patterns and scripts in life that are holding us back, identify our dominant ego state, create a calmer emotional response to events, enhance relationships, facilitate resolution instead of conflict or defensiveness, evaluate goals and decisions to serve your authentic self, challenge limiting beliefs , encourage personal resonsibilty, recognise choice, navigate challenges with confidence and become the driver in your life.
