  1. Hello FDR! I'd like to get some feedback on a project I am pursuing at the moment I am in the process of writing a book on the Mecosystem(if you have not heard of the term before, it is a word that as far as I know Stefan coined, it is basically Internal Family System http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_Family_Systems_Model). I want to basically introduce the concept of Mecosystems and give the basics of how one can work with ones Mecosystem, inspired by both Stef's podcasts on it, IFS theory, and how I have worked with it. My question to you guys is, if you were (or still are) new to the concept of you not having one personality, but actually several, what kind of questions would you ask of the person proposing this theory? Have a good day folks
  2. Black old sun and so forth... namely the visually stunning film “Sunshine” by Danny Boyle from 2007. As in almost all SciFi -films the plot is basically just rubbish (spoiler alert): The sun is losing power and to restart it again a team of scientist with fissile material is sent to orbit our star in a giant space ship, Icarus II (lol). Icarus I was lost a few years before. Our protagonist, physicist Capa, is accompanied by other scientists in different fields. Due to a small error in calculations the spaceship gets progressively more damaged and Capa's fellow crew members start to die in the process. Then by a miracle the crew finds Icarus I intact nearby. They board the ship hoping to get more resources but unfortunately they also get a new crew member hiding in the ship... the captain of the former Icarus I -mission, who has become completely mad in years of isolation. He goes on a killing spree eliminating the crew members one by one. At this point it has already become clear that no one aboard will return to Earth and even the mission to rescue the Sun is in danger. In the end the crazy old captain tries to attack Capa but fails. Capa succeeds to manually start the fission bomb which then also restarts the Sun. So here's what I think the film is about: It's simply about a journey in our “core self” through therapy, journaling, etc. All of Capa's fellow scientists are a “mecosystem” of himself. In other words, they are different simulations of other very influential (for him) persons in his life (especially in his early life). As he get's closer to his core self (=the Sun) he can let go of them. The most difficult one to confront is his abusive father (the crazy captain). After all, it was he who had sabotaged the former approach (Icarus II) to reach the truth about himself and his family. Once Capa reaches his core self his false self dies in 10^10 Kelvin flaming explosion. The process also sets free an enormous amount of “life force” as material (inner potential) becomes energy (real life actions). What do you think, am I just rambling here and trying to fit everything in one theory that I like? Or am I perhaps just talking about myself and about my narcissistic “Sun King”- fantasies? Anyway, it would be nice to hear if any of you have seen the film and your thoughts of it.
  3. Train of thought prior to: I find many of Generation Y seem to be directionless, or suffer from any number of psychological conditions, diagnosed or otherwise self imposed, as the result of childhood trauma inflicted on them. I think in part it has to do with absence of fathers and positive male role models growing up. The thought: The only thing my dad would talk about when it came to work, was what a pain in the ass it was. The train cars following: He worked for the state, so not a big surprise there now, but the formerly subconscious moral was that working sucks, side projects are more fun. That's the theme from my childhood. Thanks dad! Side projects are where I do have fun, and my bachelors degree and experience gained from those projects makes me a reasonable candidate for jobs which are remarkably similar to my hobby and side projects. Man, brain is looking out for me. Non-sequiturs man, my brain connects trains. Was it projection? Yes, but then I stood in front of the projector, and sure enough, it's on me too. I'm really excited to have connected these things. I take a lot of pride in it. It's shifting the responsibility around, so I know the part of me that's saying I'm not going to like working is a dad narrative. So cool. Thanks for reading! What are your thoughts?
  4. This is a cool clip from Northern Exposure where Joel speaks to the ex-girlfriend and younger self parts of his. I don't think it's a how to though
  5. Just took an afternoon nap and had this revelation of a dream, thought I would share. I haven't had vivid dreams in a long time, and this one was very vivid. As of the last couple years I've had some control over my dreams (especially nightmares), and I had no awareness in this dream. I could say this is the first 'nightmare' I've had in a very long time, but I get so much value from nightmares that I really can't call them 'nightmares' any more. I thought I had a decent relationship to my mecosystem, but the feedback I think i just recieved was drastically different. Does anybody have any ideas on how to salvage this relationship before I lose it, if I will can lose it? Any ideas on how to make it better?
