    Лучшая цитата из Yalom's Legacy: Existential Wisdom in Therapy

    “

    The fear of death is always greatest in those who feel they have not lived their lives fully. When we start living more authentically, facing our mortality becomes less terrifying because we're not haunted by regret and unlived possibilities.

    Вопрос для ввода

    One of the most influential writers for my psychotherapy studies was Irving Yalom. I am in love with ideas. Could you create a course for me based in his ideas and the existential therapists and theories and therapy practices he has inspired?
