FiveFreedoms

• The freedom to see and hear what is here, instead of what should be, was, or will be.
• The freedom to say what one feels and thinks instead of what one should.
• The freedom to feel what one feels, instead of what one ought
• The freedom to ask for what one wants, instead of always waiting for permission
• The freedom to take risks on one's own behalf, instead of choosing to be only 'secure' and not rocking the boat

These freedoms originate from Virginia Satir and are described in Satir Model, Family Therapy and Beyond.
