Musical Birthday Cake

Counseling water: swimming rethink, reinvent the water. Counseling in the water to promote well-being aware of mind and body.

Perché ripensare il nuoto e reinventare l’acqua?
Durante la mia esperienza trentennale in acqua, sia come nuotatore sia nell’insegnamento del nuoto e, in questi ultimi anni come Counselor, ho osservato che sono molte le persone adulte che si iscrivono ad un corso di nuoto, e molte di queste lo fanno perché sono state inviate dal medico per migliorare un problema legato alla salute come, per esempio: un problema alla schiena o articolare.
Imparare a nuotare a 40, 50 o 70 anni non è così scontato, soprattutto se la persona che lo fa si sente “obbligata” dall’invio del proprio medico.
In water it is immersed in a world which is also dotted with a very strong symbolism, and that each person draws their own mental representation, imaginary.
Thinking of a direction rather than another, will be in the picture of the emotions that accompany the individual during his experience, they may be afraid of or uncomfortable, or joy.
Counseling in water, accompanies and supports the individual in its evolution, allowing them to experience in body awareness and acceptance, becoming more aware of their emotions and feelings.
make this more clear understanding, I believe importante fare una introduzione a come le abitudini delle persone sono e stanno cambiando.
L’aspettativa della vita è aumentata ed è per questo che stiamo assistendo ad un fenomeno di rivalutazione della qualità di vita, che dimostra quanto sia importante aver cura di sé e del proprio corpo, per mantenersi vitali ed autonomi il più a lungo possibile.
Anche la cultura del movimento è cambiata, si è compreso quanto un’attività fisica, se pur leggera, possa influire beneficamente sullo stato di salute fisica e mentale.
Sempre più persone di ambo i sessi e di ogni età praticano con regolarità un’attività sportiva per il proprio psychological well-being, also play an amateur sport is also important because it helps build and reinforce important values \u200b\u200bsuch as team spirit, fairness, solidarity, tolerance, also contributes to the development and personal fulfillment.
Sport is a way to communicate, to gain experience, widen their social networks and learn to live with honesty, it is also a gym to strengthen and build self-efficacy and taking self-awareness.
Playing sport for fun, to feel good or better, to be with others, promotes the socialization process and stimulate a greater awareness of themselves and their abilities.
In fact, sport is a medium that facilitates social integration and intercultural dialogue, is a time-sharing are emerging strong emotions, but also in comparison with themselves and the environment.
is also a time of testing body, discovery and appreciation of personal resources.
When the activity takes place in a group, it becomes more self-confidence through the help or support mates.
Sport is an agent of inclusion, involvement of group life, acceptance of differences and limitations, and deals also an important social role: fighting and youth disadvantage is that of the elderly.
The considerable difficulties of communication that we are witnessing in today's society makes people more and more isolated, looking for an entry into social groups to which they belong, where you can have trade, have fun, carry out those activities that allow the construction of a socio-cultural network.
The centrality of amateur sport, therefore lies in promoting the psychological well-being in the person, helping to prevent certain diseases and improve the mood and, in combination with counseling, promotes learning of new skills, allowing you to develop new adaptations to the environment.
Among all physical activities than those offered in water appear to be the best and most suitable for all ages and for all people, including water sports, swimming is the master.
Swimming unlike other sporting activity takes place in a setting for another highly symbolic: the water, which of the four elements is the most significant on a psychological level, the water can be friend or foe, bringing life as death, fertilizing and destructive, at no time is equal to itself.
Water is espansione e profondità, è ricettiva e purificante, è terapeutica, portatrice di energie segrete e guaritrice.
Ma l’acqua è rappresentata anche come elemento negativo, spesso nelle antiche leggende è anche popolata da misteriose e terribili creature che possono simboleggiare gli strati profondi e inconsapevoli della personalità: l’inconscio.
La piscina, come contenitore emotivo protetto e sicuro, in cui si incontrano e si fondono valori personali e sociali che rendono possibili scambi socioculturali, fare esperienza di gruppo, divertirsi e, non per ultimo, migliorare la propria autostima, diventare più consapevoli di se stessi, sia nei punti di forza che di debolezza.
Il nuoto viene spesso suggerito anche dai medici ai propri pazienti, poiché il peso corporeo nell’acqua diminuisce di circa il 90%, ed è grazie a questo fenomeno fisico che il nuoto è consigliato alle persone con problemi legati alle articolazioni.
Tuttavia iniziare a nuotare in età matura o avanzata può far insorgere dei disagi, basti a pensare alla diversità della respirazione.
Inoltre immergendosi in acqua le percezioni a livello fisico e psichico cambiano.
Il corpo si deve adattare, emerge la necessità e la richiesta di imparare nuovi schemi motori come galleggiare supino e prono, muovere le gambe in un certo modo, tale da permetterci to travel, so even for the arms, legs and arms move together and coordinate breathing in water changes.
Change often frightens, scares, and avoiding triggers attitudes.
Moreover, there can also unpleasant feelings, old fears, difficulties in showing to an audience with almost nothing on him, covered only by a few inches of fabric: the swimsuit.
thoughts compared to the peculiarities of character in living the experience are varied, for example, there are those who do not hear properly, who does not feel capable of ..., who is experienced, who faces a situation as a challenge, who does not has a consistent and wants everything now, those strikes, those who can not get involved with the group, who is ashamed of her body.
water entering you will discover a new world, which varies from individual to individual.
Thinking of a direction rather than another, will be in the picture of the emotions that accompany the person during his experience, they may be afraid of or uncomfortable, or joy.
In recent years I have worked on a method I call "water- Counseling."
is an integrated approach to water- Counseling and Motion .
The goal that is proposed is:
  • Understand and clarify the emotional state
  • gain a better awareness of themselves and their bodies in water
  • Loosen the heavy physical and psychological
  • acquire a greater capacity for movement and coordination
  • is a prerequisite for learning to swim as an adult
  • helps to find a center of balance and stability and personal serenity
  • Improve interpersonal relationships
  • Helps manage stress and facilitates relaxation
Counseling in water contributes greatly to improving the quality of life.
In a path-Water Counseling emotions, thoughts, perceptions, and bodily expressions meet and merge into a healthy lifestyle that only water can give.
