Hola a todos/as, por acá Camila, desde Buenos Aires, Argentina, con un tema que encuentro sumamente interesante; y que hace poco tiempo descubrí que si bien 'ir a terapia' es moneda corriente en Buenos Aires Capital, no lo es así en todo el mundo. 
Así que diseñé algunas preguntas y respuestas para entrar en tema.

¿EMPEZAMOS?

Si queres compartir una o todas las respuestas conmigo, me encantaría leerte!

Un abrazo desde Buenos Aires!

Espero te disfrutes este podcast!

Ir a terapia en el siglo XXI - preguntas y respuestas

What if the secret to fluent speaking isn't memorizing more words - but learning to see the whole picture? 🎨

Most language learning focuses on breaking things down into tiny pieces. But what if we're missing the forest for the trees?

In Episode 101 of 111 Tips for Learning a Language, we explore Gestalt therapy - a powerful psychological approach that reveals:

• Why understanding context FIRST makes details easier to remember
• How to use your senses to create "aha!" moments in learning
• A simple technique to overcome past learning frustrations
• Why accepting where you are NOW accelerates real progress

This isn't just about learning a language - it's about learning to perceive differently.

Episode 101- The Whole Picture explores how Gestalt therapy principles can transform language learning by shifting focus from isolated parts to meaningful wholes. Discover how to use figure-ground awareness to grasp context before details, leverage present-moment sensory experiences for deeper retention, and resolve past learning blocks using "unfinished business" exercises. This episode offers a holistic approach that helps you move beyond mechanical translation toward intuitive, authentic communication by embracing the complete language experience.
