 Laura Posner Perls -- In Memory
Laura claimed she had none, which seemed a bit odd to me, given that she was on an extended trip across the country.
As we all know, Laura Perls was a low-key, down to earth person, so at any hint of putting her up on a pedestal, she had her own form of iconoclasm, i.e., a lift of the eyebrows and a penetrating look.
Laura said, "Maybe you're not doing the right exercises." At that point, she left her chair at the table and proceeded to lie down next to the refrigerator to show me the proper way to do sit-ups.

Perls says, "So, inside the ego boundary, there is generally cohesion, love, cooperation; outside of the ego boundary there is suspicion, strangeness, unfamiliarity… There is always a polarity going on, and inside the boundary we have the feeling of familiarity, of right; outside is strangeness, and wrong.
Perls says, "The impasse is the position where environmental support or obsolete inner support is not forthcoming any more, and authentic self-support has not yet been achieved." The aim of therapy would be to allow the client to discover that he or she can do many things (probably more then he or she thinks).
Perls states that one peculiar attitude is very important: "to live and review every second afresh." A main problem that people have with this lack of attitude can be contributed to having character, as mention in the first part of this essay.

Laura Perls brought a very concrete and different style to that of her husband.
As the book of Perls, Hefferline and Goodman says: these two elements are joined, with the weight of their differences (this is the contact) ("an organism lives in its environment by maintaining its difference") will let the seed survive and the consequence of it will be the growing.
And Laura Perls expresses this same idea when she says, "Contact is the recognition of, and the coping with the other, the different, the new, the strange.
