@DoroisDoro Haha Thanks :)

@Mareikehere whew she shooting

Leadership as holding a visions for what is possible in the world and others in their life

Leadership as introducing better ways of looking at the world and oneself

@m_ashcroft Yeah agree.

getting really tired of Claude's increasingly paternalistic and patronising tone "alright we can talk about this, but remember I already told you to enjoy your Sunday." "see, nothing interesting here. play with your son" if this is to discourage usage, it's very annoying

@DiamonDie I dont think i have ever met anyone who does not dissociate at all to be honest.

@Mareikehere I never learned to dissociate, so it hasn't really been affected that (I "only" got heart failure as a result of meditation), but tons of my friends started to dissociate even more and/or became psychotic from meditation.

I am curious about peoples experience with practice (mindfulness, insight, sports, therapy, whatever) and their need for numbing and dissociative behaviour in their life. How many years have you practiced and how has it impacted your numbing, addictions and dissociation?

@doomergirl Also curious about this. Have been wondering for a while

how do couples have kids together but arent married yet im pretty sure children are a bigger commitment than getting married

@chrislakin Resonates

what they all say is “it just got boring” “I stopped getting urges”

@chrislakin Activation in our nervous system def impacts eyesight

I swear my eyesight is worst when I’m frustrated & best when I’m happy

Because its not just about succeeding. Its about being lost, making mistakes and then learning the lesson ourselves. That s life. That s how wisdom is born

If you think you want something and its not yet happening, time to look at the ways in which you unconsciously dont want it.

@chrislakin How did it manifest?

Having a lifelong illness without realizing you have a lifelong illness is wild. I was literally like “Maybe I just have to eat beef, goat butter, and nothing else for the rest of my life.” No— I had a mold infection

The container podcast about relational practices talked to me about mystical experiences in relational practices.

@Yashb1127 Yeah Same w me. I am currently learning to transmit better through words. Feel enlightening but also does not come natural to me.

@Mareikehere For me it's very difficult to communicate what I am doing, to people who are simply doing their thing so they are often left confused with the way I exit or continue lol.

The risk of seeing a dynamic or pattern is creating it.

@daemonhugger @Irene_Lyon A bit yeah, also share it w clients sometimes and a person who has taught me a lot has worked w her

@Mareikehere @Irene_Lyon Yessssss! You’ve spent time with her work?

Our capacity as humans to rewire via nervous system healing, even in the face of stupendous (systemic) trauma and (global) dysregulation, and what we might assume to be genetic fate, is not just possible, it’s probable. — @Irene_Lyon

@Yashb1127 Resonate s. Feels like a similar thing in different wording :)

@Mareikehere It's mostly non identification for me. To witness and participate without being entrapped by the identity of the event so as to lean in, step back completely, maintain observation to understand further.

@Yashb1127 Yeah equanimity for me. Observing the dynamic and then stepping out of it by just being our experience instead of solidifying it into a dynamic.

@Mareikehere I guess developing an intuition is enough to know when to keep distance and when to participate

@basilYam Yeah so observing it can free us from it. But it can also mean that we are starting recreate the pattern we expect unconsciously. Because we expect it, we start playing our part in it and then the other actor gets more settled into their part. Makes sense?

@Mareikehere Difficult for me to understand this. Can u say another way? If u see a dynamic u might just be observing it, but there’s a risk that ur actually creating it?

@Yashb1127 Its a fine line

@Mareikehere The risk of not seeing is also enabling it
