@TheaEuryphaessa This has become a pretty big topic for a lot of men I work with. I checked the book out and it looks like its from 2011, so I'm super curious how the hyper availability due to constant smart phone access would change the conclusions made at this point in time.

Next on my reading list. It's all well and good talking about exploring the shadow; it's quite another to proactively shine a light in its darker, more troubling corners. No one said this path of coming to consciousness would be easy.

@Flattum It was online, and with a group of mostly women, but I did a meditation series and had the emotional realization that for the first time in many years, I was with a group of people with whom I was not competing, and who were not expecting to gain anything from the interaction…

I grant that my experience is perhaps unique (friendships formed through a sport), but male friendship through ones 40s is tough...

@Jameshhibbard I live in South MPLS. Not quite Bay Area, but have to imagine crossover of isolation and distraction applies. If I can get 10 guys to do this, that’s 10 guys who have SOME outlet for social relationships for the sake of it.

@Jameshhibbard This is a problem that I actually believe is worth addressing. Working to create a neighborhood men’s organization where we can have movement (without having it for purpose of competition) and social connection (as the primary purpose) to see how this could be done relationally.

@Jameshhibbard I was at a basketball game the other night, saw two friends attending together and between action they both ended up on their phones playing a candy crush game or updating sports bets. They were literally next to each other and couldn't be farther apart.

@Flattum I think of fraternal organizations which seemingly were healthy through the 1980s or, closer to home, even cycling clubs—the real detrimental thing seems to be a society so hyper competitive that every aspect of life without an economic payoff has languished…

@Jameshhibbard Rise and grind! Hanging @ Elks Club, heading to weekly bowling league, running/biking for the SAKE of it, those dont get you respect and reward! When everything in life must be gamified to be engaged with, then the mundane act of simply being alive no longer appeals the same way.

Each person in a therapy room is unique in their story, their experience w/in that story, their identification w/ that story, & the role they play w/in it. Treating constructs, abstracts, & assigning group traits w/o seeing the person only perpetuates why they are there at all.
Jonathan Shedler@JonathanShedler

“We are treating individual human beings. Not constructs… not representatives of a group or demographic” Exactly what professional organizations, practice guideline committees & too many training programs forget. As if there were a collective mission to erase the individual…

@TheaEuryphaessa I have been using that specific passage with some of the women in my life who seem perplexed why men around them come across certain ways. I think it has opened a few eyes, mine included.

@Flattum Yes! This particular passage, in that chapter, was a real eye-opener for me.

@TheaEuryphaessa AHH THAT'S THE ONE IM READING NOW. Really resonating with the chapter on Eros and men's propensity to relate specific external pieces as their representation w/out developing a differentiated relationship of friends or hobbies, basically anything intuitive. Such a great book.

@tyra_elisabeth Was at that game and that was all that came to mind. Not being able to run an offense with any semblance of rhythm against the worst team in the NBA, purely unserious team at this point. Will enjoy our play in/1st rd series and pray the front office makes some real decisions

I don’t care that our top scorers were out. The wizards were on pace for 10 wins on the season and we are supposed to have one of the deepest teams in the league. Unserious basketball.

Reading more James Hollis thanks to @TheaEuryphaessa, quickly becoming one of my favorites.

Turns out achieving financial/career success doesn’t ultimately lead to joy. Having relationships open to vulnerability and acceptance, feeling a sense of working towards an idea bigger than you, and approaching life with psychological flexibility seems to do the trick, though.

@leonscafe31 @PsychToday It's been great with clients (once I was able to get some), feeling my sense of the world get bigger with every session. Still adapting to the profession itself in a lot of ways, but the actual work/clinical writing has really been a gift.

@JulesEvans11 @karlsapp revisor.mn.gov/rules/2150.751… Would love to see someone justify unattached burdens as a reason for dysfunction falling under scope of practice as defined above, not to mention violating patient autonomy (core ACA principal) implying this from perceived position of authority

@JulesEvans11 @karlsapp As a therapist, it would be reportable to our state board if I told a client that their issues stemmed from possession of an entity (certainly so if I didn’t have insanely extensive and clear IC on a framework that much outside of any demonstrable evidence).
