Viktor Frankl: Man's Search for Meaning


Logotherapy
Words, reasons,
principles
heal.

Existential Analysis
looking for meaning in
all form of existence
a reason to continue
searching for
meaning
in Life.

Viktor Frankl wrote:
"It did not really matter what we expect from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those being questioned by life - daily and hourly. Our answer must consist, not in talk and in meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfil the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

Unconditional positive regards


Do you judge yourself? and others?
I do.
Another Roger's idealistic self
easier to say than do.
All of us have self-actualizing potentials,
full of resources to grow.
Equipped with strengths,
energies & skills
to fly high.
I am able to,
You are able too.
So, accept yourself as well as
others
wholeheartedly.

Active Listening


Rogers' client-centered therapy,
Reflective listening consists of
Empathy,
Acceptance,
Congruence &
Concreteness.
It's important way to
bring about changes in life.
Our listening ears
lending help
to others when we
listen for total meaning,
respond to feelings &
note all the cues.

I , ME, MYSELF


I'm who I'm
Is that how you look at yourself
in the mirror?
You examine your
outer or inner-self?
Self-notions lead to the development of
self-beliefs,
self-confidence, self-esteem, self-efficacy
and self-help
and also self-actualization
What is your self-worth then?
