Circles Therapy
Circles Therapy is the method that helps us to get free from karmic influences of the people around us.
In a psychological context, the concept of different social circles – like family, work, and friends – is integral to understanding how individuals are shaped and influenced. Each circle interacts with a person's sense of self, well-being, and behavior.
Each of these circles exerts its influence through various psychological mechanisms:
-
Reinforcement: Positive or negative feedback from any circle can reinforce certain behaviors and attitudes.
-
Modeling: Individuals often imitate behaviors observed within their social circles.
-
Social Support: Each circle can provide different types of social support, from emotional to instrumental, affecting how a person copes with stress.
-
Belongingness: Human beings have an inherent need to belong, and each circle fulfills this need in different ways, impacting a person’s mental well-being.
-
Social Identity: How a person views themselves within each circle can contribute to their overall self-concept and social identity.
Interactions within and between these circles can be complex. They can be a source of conflict or congruence, depending on how well the values and expectations of each circle align with one another and with the individual’s personal values and beliefs. Moreover, a person may adopt different roles and display different facets of their personality within each circle, which is known as role differentiation. This dynamic interaction can significantly influence an individual’s psychological health and development.

Family Circle
-
The family circle is often the primary source of emotional support, foundational values, and identity.
-
Early experiences within the family circle can have a profound impact on personality development and can affect attachment styles, self-esteem, and coping mechanisms.
-
Family dynamics, including parental styles, sibling interactions, and extended family relationships, can shape attitudes toward authority, intimacy, and social roles.

Friends Circle
-
Friendships provide a social outlet and a sense of belonging outside of familial or professional roles.
-
Friends can offer alternative perspectives, emotional support, and can be a source of positive reinforcement and shared experiences.
-
Peer influence from friends can shape behaviors, interests, and values, often providing a testing ground for developing interpersonal skills and identity beyond the family structure.

Work Circle
-
The work circle typically involves colleagues, supervisors, and subordinates, and plays a significant role in shaping a person’s professional identity.
-
Interactions at work can influence self-concept in terms of competence, ambition, and achievement. It is also a source of stress and satisfaction.
-
A person’s work environment can impact their mental health, influencing factors like stress levels, motivation, and overall life satisfaction.
