WHAT IS APPERCEPTION?

People make sense of an idea by assimilating it to the body of ideas he/she already possesses (past experience) to form a new whole. Every external sensory stimulus goes through an internal classification in the mind and then interpreted which eventuates into experience. At the very inception, as babies, we receive sensory inputs into our mind through sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. We make sense of the world through a process called perception.

As we grow up our brain accumulates immense past information and archives it in memory. New sensory inputs at each stage, as we experience life, is now compared with this past information and then we perceive the world. For example, any new scientific principle is explained based on existing data that is already analysed and classified. If a new chemical element is discovered, it is compared with Mendeleev’s periodic table and positioned as per its atomic number in the new table.

NEW INFORMATION/ STIMULUS IS NOT PERCEIVED, IT IS APPERCEIVED.

HUMAN INTELLIGENCE IS A PRODUCT OF APPERCEPTION

APPERCEPTION IS A MENTAL PROCESS BY WHICH ANY NEW INFORMATION, CONCEPT, THEORY IS COMPARED AND CONTRASTED WITH ALREADY EXISTENT MENTAL CONTENT AND THEREBY CLASSIFIED, EXPLAINED OR UNDERSTOOD. 

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD WITHOUT THIS DEFAULT APPERCEPTIVE MODE, HOWEVER, RECOGNISING ITS OCCURRENCE

ALTERS OUR INTERPRETATIVE EXPERIENCE.

  

THESE SUBTLETIES ARE OF IMMENSE INTEREST TO HEADSTRIDE AS IT HAS SUCH A WEIGHTY LINKAGE TO OUR INDIVIDUAL DRIVE.

 

ALL PROGRAMS OF OURS ADOPT THE APPERCEPTIVE SCHEMA.

Headstride has remained immersive from a research perspective to open up aspects of the mind to  understand experience and the way we

FEEL, TAKE DECISIONS & ACTIONS.

A DAY OF REVELATION & TRANSFORMATION 

UNDERSTANDING THE WAY WE SYNTHESISE INFORMATION 

HUMAN MIND IS BOTH INATTENTIVE TOWARDS COMMUNICATION TO THE SELF AS WELL AS EMOTIONALLY UNSHOOLED IN REPRESENTING SENSORY DATA TO ONESELF.

When this happens, erroneous perceptions are formed, inaccurate interpretations are structured, opinions and untested beliefs become facts/certainty, all of which consequently influence one’s attitudes and behaviour.

YOUR EXPERIENCE ABOUT YOUR LIFE IS OUR STARTING POINT 

WHY SEEK HEADSTRIDE

Apperception SERVICES? 

People balk at the thought of change either due to their belief that they have to surmount big difficulties or the discomfort of having to give up existing habits, rituals, skill familiarity, hierarchy, security and so forth or they just don’t feel there is a need to change. These unpurposed thoughts stem from scant awareness. 

AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE WAY WE CONFIGURE AND FORMAT OUR THOUGHTS

HELP OUR MIND ATTAIN A VISE-GRIP AND COMMAND OVER ITS 'WAY OF BEING' 

OPENNESS &

BOUNDARY STRETCHING 

An accustomed life style becomes accustomed in the first place due to lack of ‘boundary stretching’ to explore the unknown. The above Apperception programs, challenge one’s emotional knowledge, foundational belief systems, world view and aids emergence of a new self. The programs devoutly believe in the power of human CONCEIVABILITY, POTENTIALITY and ATTAINABILITY and encourage the participant to develop these attributes. To reach this stage one needs to liberate oneself from own psychological resistances and embrace openness and unrestrained exploration.

PAST CONSTRAINTS CREATE INTRUSION AND SEVERELY COMPROMISES OBJECTIVITY FOR THE PRESENT. A GRIM EVENT OCCURRED IN THE PAST BUT THE MEMORY ASSOCIATED WITH THE EVENT SUBSISTS AND TRANSGRESS PRESCRIBED BOUNDARIES OF PRESENT LIVING.

HEADSTRIDE USES PSYCHOTHERAPY CONCEPTS TO ASSERT THE SEPARABILITY OF THESE PAST CONSTRAINTS AND ENCOURAGE OUR CLIENTS

TO REASSESS THEIR REALITY

PEOPLE DEMAND FREEDOM OF SPEECH AS A COMPENSATION FOR THE FREEDOM OF THOUGHT WHICH THEY SELDOM USE.
