		<title>Coaching and Chunking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I havebeen trying to recall a word I used to use in latter stages of role training. I remembered the word today that was eluding me. It’s “chunking”.

		<title>Not Rehearsal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A prose-poem Not Rehearsal
In 1985 the five day Training Workshop ends. The trainer&#8217;s saying that &#8220;psychodrama is rehearsal for life&#8221; clashed with the vitality and immediacy of my experience. I went home and wrote a prose poem. I knew what it was for me. It was not rehearsal. Knowing what it is not for ourselves [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thinking further on reciprocity and groups, and reciprocity&#8217;s advantages and may be necessity for worthwhile, ethical and powerfully efficacious healthy developments, I have been remembering Jacob Moreno in his &#8220;sociometry&#8221; based &#8220;group psychotherapy&#8221;. He was &#8220;Doctor&#8221;, and &#8220;Doctor&#8221; was an identity of powerful influence, respect and status in the years of his lifetime (1889 &#8211; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dissonance and other essential cognitive distortions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thinking about reciprocity and psychotherapeutic relationships had me recal Cognitive dissonance and Carl Festinger Festenger, who recognized such dissonance as operating when imbalances that discomfort us are in play, and where immediate active reponses are, or appear, not to be able to correct imbalances in the social context. The response that is made is to view the events in such [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reciprocity and mutuality in relationship</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Language teacher on Niue in 1965 tought us to appreciate polynesian reciprocity. So careful for the stranger but taken for granted by the polynesian.

		<title>A big difference with Role as I see it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Role&#8221; is a word that Jacob Levi Moreno took from his theatre experience and his fascination with staging, producing and creative acts. He coached children in freedom to be themselves in Vienese parks while first a philosophy and then a medical student. He created impromptu theatre with teenagers and Vienese actors.
