A configuration of self is a hypothetical construct denoting a coherent pattern of feelings thoughts and preferred behavioural responses symbolised or pre-symbolised by the person as reflective of a dimension of existence within the self. >Thorne and Mearns, 2000< The rationale behind the series is based on each piece of music representing emotional response to the processes feelings and self- awareness of studying psychology and counselling and becoming more aware of the multiple defences behaviours and personality traits I have. Each release will be themed around a particular part of my academic journey and include media to accompany the music.
