show morePlease note: I am using the book TA Today by Stewart & Joines to base my understanding of the theory and therefore I use examples and quotes throughout the podcast. I don't cite throughout however, otherwise it would interrupt the flow. If you would like to learn more then I highly recommend buying the book.
In this episode we go into:
1. The basics of Parent, Child, Adult and why it’s applicable in therapy and in life.
2. Splitting each of the parent and child states in two. Looking at the Controlling Parent / Nurturing Parent at the top, and then Adapted (compliant) Child / (care) Free Child at the bottom.
3. Showing how each state we are in can be positive and negative, and how that affects you and those around you.
4. Then lastly, we’re gonna talk about the slogans and beliefs that we’ve picked up from our parents or our own childhood, which still creep into and occasionally control our lives.
Next month will be TA Life Scripts.
I hope you enjoy the episode!
