Introduction
Customers help coach, and more is to get professional help, which allow them to see themselves and their situation, find a way out, the achievements of hope to change. In this process, “see” is particularly important. Once clearly see, most people will be able to more easily find a way. In the “see”, the see themselves more critical, because only understand himself straightened out, we can think clearly be to observe and analyze the situation we find ourselves.
See yourself is not easy. Benjamin Franklin once said: “There are three things extremely hard, steel, diamonds and know yourself.”, We believe that everyone has their own experience. Imagine an onion, peel the layers to get out of yourself and see yourself wrapped in the cloak of heart, all the difficulties and possibly tingling, not to mention advanced complex human too!

Self-state mode
Self-state model is the basis of communication theory and the most important concepts. We often say it’s “self” is divided into three parts: the parent ego state (Parent ego state), adult ego state (Adult ego state) and child ego state (Child ego state), as shown in Fig.
For a healthy balance of people, all three ego states are necessary. Adult ego state that we need to deal with the here and now, and help us to live effective lives. We also need parents to provide specifications to comply with ego state, let us live in harmony with others, into society. We also need the child ego state of intuition, spontaneity and creativity, so that we can feel the heart and dedication to the pursuit of need, to create and enjoy our life.
We usually between three ego states free conversion. As I sit here thinking and writing my thesis, I was in my adult self state. When I was constantly reminded his son in the morning, “Hurry Hurry, bags tidy it?”, I was in my parents’ state. When I finally graduated, and students together to carnival night when I was in my children’s self-state. Sometimes we will be in a “mismatched” ego states, for example: when I write papers distracted, thinking about the wonderful vacation; And when I sunbathing on the beach, and my heart thinking about all sorts of matters back to the office after . Sometimes also, we will be fixed in a state where not freely convertible, for example: a mother and severe anxiety, seven days a week and strict management of the child’s time, in addition to eating and sleeping is learning, ignoring the other normal child needs. In these cases, we will work inefficient, mental balance; so long, our lives and our health will suffer.
