ABSTRACT
Polarities can apply to many different areas: to polarities of the self (Zinker, 1977), polarities of the therapy process, polarities in styles of contact (see Point 20), polarities in our cultural field. Wherever this theory is applied the same principle holds, that of yin and yang, in that the further we move into the dark the closer we move towards the light and vice versa, also that the light contains aspects of the dark and vice versa. We all limit our selfconcept to a greater or lesser degree through disowning some of our human qualities and potentials.
