Discover practical tips for designing with sensory considerations, color psychology, and material selection.Designing with Sensory Awareness: Creating Spaces for NeurodiversityHow Interior Designer Michelle Canny Approaches Sensory-Friendly DesignWhen it comes to interior design, we often focus on aesthetics—the colors, patterns, and styles that make a space visually appealing. But what if design could go deeper, addressing how spaces make us feel on a sensory level?In this insightful episode of Design Dialogues, host Beth Bieske speaks with Michelle Canny of Michelle Canny Interiors about her unique approach to designing spaces with neurodiversity in mind, particularly for her son who is on the autism spectrum.From Marketing to Mindful Design: Michelle's JourneyMichelle's path to interior design wasn't traditional. With a background in marketing and advertising, she found herself drawn to design after becoming disillusioned with agency life."I didn't want to sell myself to sell a product," Michelle explains. "I also didn't want to work 80 hours for peanuts."After enrolling in the International School of Color and Design in Sydney, Michelle discovered her passion for creating spaces that not only look beautiful but also feel right on a sensory level. This interest became personal when designing for her neurodivergent son.Understanding Sensory Design for NeurodiversityFor Michelle, designing for neurodiversity means considering how all aspects of a space affect the senses—not just sight, but touch, sound, and even smell.The Importance of Functionality First"When you're designing for people who may be neurodivergent—autistic, ADHD, any type of people that may have some form of impairment or disability—it has to be first and foremost functional," Michelle emphasizes.This focus on functionality doesn't mean sacrificing beauty, but rather ensuring that the space works on a practical level before addressing aesthetics.Involving Users in the Design ProcessOne of the most powerful aspects of Michelle's approach is how she involves her son in the selection process:"I got my son Angus to touch [the materials]. And then I asked him how he felt about it. Sometimes he would say, 'Mom, no, I don't like that tile. It's too reflective.' I may not have even perceived it that way, but he did."This collaborative approach ensures that the final design truly meets the sensory needs of the person who will be using the space.Practical Design Considerations for Sensory SensitivityMichelle shares several key considerations when designing for neurodiversity:Color Psychology and Selection"Certain colors have a stimulating effect. So more warmer colors will always have more of a stimulating effect on our senses. So there's sort of the reds and the yellows and because they're more seen as bright colors or they're more seen as like emotion evoking colors."For spaces meant to be calming, Michelle recommends:Neutral base colorsBlues and greensLight graysAvoiding overly warm or bright colors that can be stimulatingMaterial Selection and TextureTexture plays a crucial role in how neurodivergent individuals interact with a space:"For him, touch is a very big thing. So textures in a home, it has a massive impact on our bodies. And the types of fabrics we choose play a big part in how we feel or experience a space."Michelle recommends:Natural fabrics like cotton, bamboo, and linen for breathabilityAvoiding synthetic materials that can cause sensory discomfortConsidering weighted blankets for comfort and securityUsing plush rugs that provide tactile comfortSound ManagementAcoustic considerations are often overlooked in traditional design but are crucial for neurodivergent individuals:"To reduce the noise in his room, he has blackout curtains and sheers so that he can get the natural light."Other sound management strategies include:Hardwood doors to block noise more effectively than hollow doorsSoft furnishings to absorb soundConsidering the acoustic properties of flooring materialsLighting Considerations"Natural light is a massive impact as well in bringing wellness into a home."Michelle emphasizes the importance of:Maximizing natural light where possibleUsing warmer lighting rather than cool, harsh lightingAvoiding highly reflective surfaces that can create glareProviding options for different lighting levelsThe Emotional Impact of Sensory-Aware DesignOne of the most powerful aspects of Michelle's approach is how she connects design choices to emotional well-being:"The way in which you feel in a space is completely dictated by the senses and the way in which it makes you feel. When you walk into a space, if it was a really obnoxious color, like a really loud, loud color, it could actually give you a bit of a headache."This understanding that design affects not just how a space looks but how it makes people feel is at the heart of sensory-aware design.Using the Emotions Wheel for Design ConversationsMichelle uses the emotions wheel as a tool to help her son articulate his reactions to different design elements:"Often we can experience a certain amount of emotions. For example, you know, I know I'm happy. I know I'm sad. I know I'm joyful. I know I'm angry and they're just base basics. But what we don't often, you know, we're not able to articulate is the broader spectrum of emotions."This approach can be valuable for designers working with all clients, not just those who are neurodivergent, as it helps people express their emotional responses to spaces more precisely.Creating Sensory Balance in Any HomeWhile Michelle's approach is particularly valuable for neurodivergent individuals, the principles of sensory-aware design can benefit everyone:Natural Elements and Biophilic Design"Introducing more biophilic design, so introducing more plants into the space."Connecting to nature through design helps create spaces that feel calming and grounded.Sound Management for Wellbeing"I will often have things such as water sounds or rain sounds on an app for him to help him soothe and calm."Considering the soundscape of a space—whether through sound-absorbing materials or introducing pleasant natural sounds—can significantly impact how a space feels.Material Selection for ComfortChoosing materials based on how they feel, not just how they look, creates spaces that are physically comfortable:"Anything that's sort of breathable and airy because it gets quite hot. In the winter he likes more sort of flannelette or warmer style blankets, something that has a bit of weight to it, which gives him that sense of protection and feeling safeness and soothed."The Universal Appeal of Sensory DesignWhat makes Michelle's approach so valuable is that while it addresses specific needs for neurodivergent individuals, the principles benefit everyone:"People forget that, you know, lighting, sound, smell, taste, I mean, we don't taste interior, but even when you think about when you go, say, for example, to an open home and they have the smell of fresh coffee, they do that intentionally."As Beth notes during the conversation, "This is what a good designer should be doing for all of their clients. Because really how, so much of our job is actually like, there is the aesthetic, obviously. But it is like we want our clients to walk in the front door and just go, I'm home, it's my sanctuary."Practical Tips for Implementing Sensory-Aware DesignFor designers looking to incorporate these principles into their practice, Michelle offers several practical approaches:Involve Users in Material SelectionHave clients touch and interact with materials before making final selections.Consider All SensesThink beyond the visual to how a space sounds, feels, and even smells.Use the Emotions WheelHelp clients articulate their emotional responses to different design elements.Balance Stimulation and CalmCreate spaces with varying sensory levels to accommodate different needs and moods.Prioritize Natural ElementsIncorporate natural materials, plants, and natural light whenever possible.The Future of Inclusive DesignAs awareness of neurodiversity continues to grow, the design industry has an opportunity to create more inclusive spaces that work for people with diverse sensory needs.Michelle's approach demonstrates that designing with sensory awareness doesn't mean sacrificing beauty or style—it simply means considering how design choices affect all aspects of the human experience.By incorporating these principles, designers can create spaces that not only look beautiful but also support the emotional and sensory wellbeing of everyone who uses them.Whether you're designing for a neurodivergent client or simply want to create more thoughtful, comfortable spaces, the principles of sensory-aware design offer valuable insights for creating interiors that truly enhance quality of life.

We're talking about aligning with the soul's fundamental needs, as taught by Jesus himself.From Selfish to Selfless – We've all been there, right? Putting ourselves first, fast, and completely. But here's the kicker: the more we focus on ourselves, the less satisfied we feel. It's a paradox that we unpack with humor, honesty, and a touch of humility.A New Perspective – Imagine realizing that your whole life has been a race to put yourself first, only to end up feeling empty. That's the story of a Christian brother who woke up to his selfishness addiction. It's a powerful moment of vulnerability that might just change the way you see your own life.Growth and Healing – This episode isn't just about identifying the problem; it's about finding the path to healing. We discuss the importance of taking small steps towards giving, towards others, and towards a life filled with genuine connection.So, if you've ever felt caught in the cycle of coping and surviving rather than truly living, this episode is for you.

Cybercrime is often more than just a demonstration of hacking skills. The attacker could be motivated by money, but equally by nationalism, a search for notoriety or revenge. The victim may be random and innocent, but he/she could have been singled out because of an emotional weak spot. Following the crime, other human emotions, such as guilt or shame, may prevent the attack from being disclosed.So when addressing cybercrime, we need to focus as much on psychology as on technology. As internet-enabled fraud reaches ever more alarming proportions, in the latest New Money Review podcast I interview Sarah Armstrong-Smith, author of a new book called “Understand the Cyber Attacker Mindset”.In the podcast, we cover:Why pandemics and war are great news for fraudstersThe amplification effect of social mediaHow disinformation campaigns drive polarisation in societyWhy nation-state hackers are well-resourced and focusedWhy cybercrime and fraud are the invisible crimeHow police forces are scrambling to catch up"Pig-butchering": blaming the victims of fraudSeeing frauds as human-to-human relationshipsBolstering our defences as organisations and individualsThe need for transparency about cyberattacksWhy sanctions are most effective at the individual level

“We all have a story because we all have a future and a past. … And story is really about making the influences in our life explicit to ourselves. Oftentimes, when we're not living intentionally, it's like we don't know what our story is. And we're not living in a way that is aligned at all with our purpose—so that you know what your story is, and so that you can be explicit in your intentional current behavior, feelings, and decisions.” (Dr. Belle Liang)Do you know your purpose? How do you understand your own life story?The science of purpose promises many positive outcomes: mental health, psychological wellbeing, physical health, even longevity, not to mention academic engagement, career fulfillment, and even nurturing relationships. Who doesn't want purpose?But as much as it captivates us, can be an elusive, ephemeral object dangling in front of us. We want it. We can sense it. We should have it. But we can't quite attain it.A deep sense of purpose and vocation are central to our spiritual health. Purpose is understood as an actionable and enduring goal that is meaningful to oneself and contributes to the world beyond oneself, is crucial to our spirituality bc it serves to integrate our beliefs, values, understanding of ultimacy, and love into action.In this episode Dr. Belle Liang (Boston College, author of the bestselling book How to Navigate Life: The New Science of Finding Your Way in School, Career, and Beyond), offers research-backed practical guidance on how to identify and pursue your purpose, identifying essential elements of purpose: (1) character strengths, (2) skills and expertise, (3) deeply held values, and (4) a sense of contribution to the world.During the interview she guides listeners through a real-time practical exercise for aligning with our purpose and explore how it can help us navigate the journey of life.In this conversation with Belle Liang, we discuss:How family history shapes us as individualsThe importance of differentiation and emerging from early family dependency into a healthy sense of oneself as an individualThe role of faith, spirituality, and community in our understanding of purposeA psychological definition of purpose as using strengths and skills and values to make a positive impact on the worldAnd the practical elements of finding and living your purpose as an individual, with Belle guiding us through a practice of reflecting on our past and finding our purposeAbout Belle LiangDr. Belle Liang is a professor of Counseling, Developmental, & Educational Psychology at the Lynch School of Education and Human Development at Boston College. As the founder and Principal Investigator of Purpose Lab, she is committed to advancing understanding of positive youth development, including mentoring and relational health, through her research. Her expertise in purpose interventions, including those that are technologically mediated, is reflected in her current work leading the development of True North, a curriculum and web-based application aimed at helping individuals and organizations cultivate purpose with data analytics.With over 100 publications, Dr. Liang is recognized as a knowledgeable speaker and collaborator in the field of positive youth development. She is grateful for the opportunities she has had to contribute to the field and to translate research into practical application, as demonstrated by her recent co-authorship of the bestselling How to Navigate Life: The New Science of Finding Your Way in School, Career, & Beyond, published by St. Martin's Press.Show NotesCheck out How to Navigate Life: The New Science of Finding Your Way in School, Career, and Beyond by Belle Liang and Timothy Klein“What is your life dream?” Learn more about Belle Liang's Purpose Labs“Purpose is knowing more of yourself and living in ways that are aligned and consistent with those values, strengths, beliefs, and, desires.”Pam King introduces Belle Liang and this episodeBelle Liang's family of originGrowing up the daughter of Asian immigrant parents with very impoverished backgroundsUnderstanding sacrificeLearning how to listen to herself and identify her vocation and purposeHow Belle became a psychologist“It was pretty tricky for me early on to make some decisions that had to do with my own interests, my own intrinsic motivations versus doing what seemed to be the most strategic pathway to success.”Parker Palmer and “letting your life speak”Listening to the inner voice that reveals purposeHow to define purpose in order to study it through psychological researchPurpose as “living a life that is personally meaningful and intended to contribute to the world beyond oneself.”Positive outcomes of finding and living your purposeImproved mental health and well beingPhysical health and longevityBetter academic engagementIncreased career fulfillmentWhat are the elements of purpose?Character strengthsSkills that you're motivated to learn and masterValues that you're willing to stand for and sacrifice forNeeds of the world that you want to contribute to“Purpose is not like finding your one true love.”Romans 12—offering our lives as “living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God”Practical or Passion: they're not mutually exclusive“Purpose is not like you have to sacrifice a paycheck, in order to do the thing that you love and the thing that is aligned with your purpose.”Living life to the fullestPam's purpose: “To enable people to thrive and become who God created them to be.”Belle's purpose: “To be a blessing … translating research and spiritual language into plain language. … translating across the lines.”Practical resources and tools for finding your purposePurpose defined: “Using your strengths and skills to make a positive impact in the world that's aligned with your core values.”“There's a lot that we don't know about ourselves because we've never been given the space to reflect and given the scaffolding to ask those kinds of questions of ourselves.”Recommended practice: Journal for 3 to 5 minutes“How do you want to be remembered?”Look for key words and think of them as strengths you want to be remembered for.“What's one thing you can do in one minute that's going to move you one step closer to your purpose?”Example: Cultivating courageCreating a “moment that matters”“We want to connect our envisioned future, whatever that, that aspiration is for growth and that strength or that skill with where it came from, which is reflecting on our past and what informed it with the action in the present, and to have people come alongside us as to journey with us, um, as we develop those skills and strengths.”Purpose Practice: “In an ideal world, what does success look like for you.”Pick out a few words that stand out, share them with trusted people.Envision the future based on these strengths and successes.Consider the past.What are certain experiences that you've had that are formative?What are certain relationships that were meaningful in your life that gave you that sense of the kind of success that you aspire to?What impact did this have on you?Did you learn a harsh truth about yourself or the world?Did it cause you to believe or to accept or trust something or someone?Did it cause you to commit to an action that altered the course of your life?Craft a story based on these reflections: (1) Set the stage, (2) Something happens, (3) Impact on you, (4) Success revealed.Purpose should be more like a verb than a noun—it's a deeply relational endeavor.“We're purposing people.”Living toward an envisioned future, informed by our past.“You want to be able to tell your story. And it's so helpful to have done the work of identifying what truly matters to you and putting it together in a story.”Weaving our stories into other storiesReclaiming our own life events and experiences and making meaning of thoseAt the end of ourselvesRelying on faith in God, prayer, and seeking God in seeking a life of purposeThe Sermon on the Mount: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of God. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”Is purpose just for the privileged? NoSometimes purpose is associated with choice, but the research shows that those who have encountered adversity and trials and trauma are more deeply connected to their purpose.What is thriving to Belle Liang?“Living in your joy.”It's making the impact that you care about making in a way that's really aligned with your deepest core beliefs and values.“Purpose is not just about an individual mindset. It's about shifting culture.”Pam's key takeawaysWe are relational beings with deep dependencies on our families of origin, and we need to differentiate and individuate in order to thrive and find out who we are and enter into even more healthy relationships.To find our purpose, we can let our lives speak. And there is transformative power in personal storytelling when we do so mindfully and intentionally.Faith can be fertile ground for finding purpose, especially when practiced in communities of thriving and healthy spirituality.Spiritual health includes our own awareness of our evolving sense of purpose. and an application of that to our daily lives, w ork, vocation, and all the relationships we find there.Purpose is something you grow toward, and from it emerges all sorts of pro social benefits and positive personal outcomes for physical and mental health.Lastly, purpose is for everyone, not just a privileged few.

The Nightly Rant: Exploring Society's Quirks and ChallengesWelcome to The Nightly Rant, where we examine society from a sarcastic point of view. In today's episode, we dive into a range of topics, including the challenges faced by service animal owners, the entitlement of some individuals, and the curious case of Wally the emotional support alligator. Join us as we explore these themes and their implications on our society.Introduction: Navigating the Quirks of SocietyThe Nightly Rant is a show that delves into the idiosyncrasies of society, offering a sarcastic perspective on the challenges we face. In this episode, we tackle several thought-provoking topics, including the experiences of service animal owners and the entitlement of individuals who believe they have the right to touch someone else's pet. We also touch upon the curious case of Wally the emotional support alligator, which has sparked both outrage and fascination. Let's dive into these themes and explore their implications on our society.Theme 1: The Challenges Faced by Service Animal OwnersOne of the hosts shares a personal experience at Walmart, where their service animal was approached and touched by three children, despite clear instructions not to pet the dog. The host recounts their frustration and the mother's refusal to control her children. They express their concern for the safety of their service animal, as any sudden movement or distraction could have serious consequences. The host questions their own actions and wonders if they were in the wrong for asking the mother to control her children."I asked them kindly at first to go back to their mom and stop petting my guy as he has a job to do. The kids didn't care. I got frustrated very quickly with the situation and told the woman to control her kids now and I have to have them stop petting my animal."Theme 2: The Entitlement of IndividualsThe conversation shifts to the entitlement of individuals who believe they have the right to touch someone else's pet without permission. The hosts express their disbelief at the audacity of people who disregard clear instructions and boundaries. They highlight the fact that a dog, regardless of its nature, is still an animal and can react unpredictably. They draw parallels to personal possessions, emphasizing that just as one wouldn't touch someone else's iPhone without permission, the same courtesy should be extended to pets."What kind of bitch ass motherfucker thinks that they're entitled to pet someone else's dog?"Theme 3: The Curious Case of Wally the Emotional Support AlligatorThe hosts briefly touch upon the case of Wally the emotional support alligator, whose owner attempted to bring him to a Phillies game. They discuss the polarizing reactions to this incident, with some people supporting the owner's right to bring their emotional support alligator, while others find the idea absurd. The hosts highlight the owner's gracious response to the rejection, as they accepted the decision and moved on with their life. They speculate that the owner may be invited to a box seat at a Phillies game, which would provide a controlled environment for Wally and appease both the owner and the public."Who am I to judge? I mean, we have a chameleon and we have a bearded dragon. People probably think we're insane. I think we're insane. It is what it is, man."Implications and Potential ImpactThe themes discussed in this episode shed light on the challenges faced by service animal owners and the entitlement of individuals when it comes to interacting with other people's pets. By exploring these topics, we can gain a deeper understanding of the need for respect and boundaries in our society. The hosts' experiences highlight the importance of following instructions and recognizing that animals, even those with a friendly demeanor, can still pose a risk if provoked or distracted.The case of Wally the emotional support alligator raises questions about the boundaries of emotional support animals and the accommodations that should be made for them. While some may find the idea of an emotional support alligator absurd, it is essential to respect the rights and needs of individuals who rely on these animals for emotional support. Finding a balance between accommodating emotional support animals and ensuring the safety and comfort of others is crucial.Conclusion and Future OutlookAs we conclude this episode of The Nightly Rant, we reflect on the themes discussed and their implications for our society. The challenges faced by service animal owners and the entitlement of individuals highlight the need for respect, boundaries, and understanding. By recognizing the importance of following instructions and respecting the rights of others, we can create a more harmonious society.The case of Wally the emotional support alligator serves as a reminder that our society is diverse, and individuals have unique needs and preferences. While it may be easy to dismiss certain requests or accommodations as absurd, it is essential to approach them with an open mind and a willingness to understand. By doing so, we can foster a more inclusive and compassionate society.As we navigate the quirks and challenges of society, let us remember the importance of empathy, respect, and open-mindedness. By embracing these values, we can create a society that is more understanding and supportive of one another. Join us next time on The Nightly Rant as we continue to explore society from a sarcastic point of view.TimestampSummary0:00:15Introduction to the podcast0:01:02Shoutout to friend's podcast0:01:13Discussion about a busy day0:03:44Reading an "Am I the Asshole?" story0:05:15Service animal encounter at Walmart0:08:28Discussing the entitlement of petting someone else's dog0:09:33Highlighting the potential risks of petting animals0:10:09Sharing a personal experience with petting an iguana0:11:18Reflecting on the audacity of touching someone else's pet[0:11:06]Discussing the annoyance of people touching someone else's pet without permission[0:11:42]Debate on whether dogs are possessions or family members[0:12:17]Responsibility of dog owners to take precautions for their dog's behavior[0:13:41]Indignation towards people suing after being bitten by a dog they touched without permission[0:15:02]Controversy over Wally the alligator being denied entry to a Phillies game[0:16:10]Extreme opinions on Wally the alligator situation[0:17:24]Owner's acceptance of the Phillies' decision and not being upset[0:19:18]Suggesting the Phillies owner invite Wally to sit in a box seat[0:19:43]Ensuring the safety of other guests by having Wally arrive early or leave late[0:20:08]Comparing Wally the alligator to a grizzly bear not being allowed in a ballpark0:20:08Discussion about the positive PR of an emotional support alligator0:20:39Potential damages caused by the alligator0:21:21Insurance coverage for damages through Airbnb0:21:43Acceptance and non-judgment of owning unusual pets0:22:01Mention of a chameleon named Hugh0:22:30Possibility of having a video podcast with a bearded dragon0:22:38Humorous reference to beating a dead horse0:22:44Protectiveness over emotional support animal0:22:47Conclusion and farewell0:22:52Closing remarks and request for ratings

"If someone says, “I'm a fucking loser,” that's a form of dishonesty. What you actually are is a collection of atoms talking to each other. To say that you're a loser isn't accurately describing yourself. To say, “right now I'm having a thought that I'm a loser and engaging in some self-pity around that,” that's more accurate."— Dan Munro“When I say I was working with criminal offenders, really I was just coaching people, and now I'm still coaching people it's just they're less likely to be in a gang these days.”— Dan MunroA recommendation from a friend led me to Dan Munro, a coach whose transformative impact was evident.

David Sammel, a former tennis player & current tour coach joins the podcast this week to talk about the importance of mindset!David is the coach of Liam Broady & former podcast guest, Marcus Daniell

Rohini and Angus interview their mentors, George & Linda Pransky. The Pranksys share about how their relationship has evolved over time, and most notably how it changed after they met Syd Banks, the man who first conceptualized the understanding we speak about on this podcast.Linda describes their first year together as volatile and painful. After talking with Syd, they started getting over conflicts in their relationship quicker -- neither of them were taking things as personally anymore. Seeing that they were moving in the right direction together, they could ease up on trying to work to make the relationship better. Taking away this pressure allowed Linda and George to access a light-heartedness, and their fondness for each other increased tenfold. George warmly refers to his fondness for Linda now as "omnipresent fondness" that spans "wall to wall". By this he means there is no gap in his fondness for her, and so there's no longer anything to even not take personally. There's no issue! They are so united that they can both rest and trust in the fact that the other would never purposefully hurt the other. This makes asking for an apology, when necessary, easy. We let the simplicity and warmth of George and Linda's wisdom and love wash over us. We hope you enjoy "hanging out in their living room" as much as we did.This episode explores:The arbitrariness of thoughtIt's ok to disagreeRelationships as a united front transcends the individualsThe hum of fondness The before and after of the Pranksys learning this understandingShow notes:Hair on it: having something on it, in the business world. It's better to not have a hair on it.Mew: To Rohini's surprise, mew is indeed an alternative form of meow. Mew as a noun, is a gull or a place for hiding, as a verb it can refer to the cry of a cat. Meow refers solely to the cry of a cat.Linda Pransky specialized in psycho-social nursing, but grew disillusioned by techniques and approaches that didn't seem to create lasting change for people. After her and George met Sydney Banks in 1976, she saw a way to help people create sustainable change.  Dr. George Pransky has taught the principles for over 30 years to individuals, couples, businesses and colleagues -- he is one of the two professional founders of The Principles of Mind, Thought and Consciousness and the author of The Relationship Handbook. Both George and Linda serve on the executive committee of the Three Principles Global Community, and continue to pioneer this understanding with new industries and populations. They are both both Partners at Pransky & Associates. Learn more about their work. Angus & Rohini Ross are “The Rewilders.” They love working with couples and helping them to reduce conflict and discord in their relationships. They co-facilitate individualized couples' intensives that rewild relationships back to their natural state of love.

In this multi-faceted episode, I am so grateful to speak with fellow Jungian Analyst in training and movement magician, Mackenzie Amara, AKA 'THE INKED SHRINK", about the role that culture plays in our minds and in our lives. We go into our mutual love of the intersection of the soma and psyche and how she always includes elements of analytical psychology, myth, alchemy, and shadow work in her teaching and how dance and depth psychology are part and parcel for her and cannot be separated. A few things we talk about:The place that Jungian theory holds in our modern world, and how Jung's wisdom can be used to understand how it's rapidly changingWhat happens when minds socialized by western culture try to absorb eastern philosophy and mysticismWhat it means to recognize our wholeness, and our complexity as individualsThe mercurial nature of being in relationship with other humansThe place and importance of irrationality, non-sense, and non-linear in our lives and mindsGolden nuggets of wisdom from Mackenzie..."That next step is the only thing that you can do right now. So you have to start where you are or otherwise you’re nowhere.""We’ve been culturally programmed and religiously programmed to avoid that recognition [of evil] in ourselves lest we give into too deeply.""When the culture can’t hold the experiences of another culture’s religion or zeitgeist or tradition, you just sort of fall through.""You can’t move beyond the next movement. Whether that’s the next breath, or admission or confession, or the next twirl or the next partner, or the next eye gaze. "About MackenzieBy trade Mackenzie is a writer, coach, & 5Rhythms® teacher. By vocation she is a Jungian analyst-in-training & Clinical Psychology doctoral student. By design she is a collection of fractal, holographic cells dancing around some strange attractor for the sake of who knows what to live an insignificant, mythic life reflective of the mysterious vital spark within her. She identifies as a series of memories & unverifiable subjective experiences of self-hood to which she is rather fondly attached. She has a penchant for scholarship, the occult, pedantic erudition, morbid humor, grandiosity, nihilism, & semi-responsible hedonism. Born in the shadow of New Age culture into a fractured family system & the subjective experiencer of (arguably) extreme early childhood trauma, her life’s work is to heal psychic wounds—her’s & other’s—that she & others become strong enough to contend with the unconscious quicksands & transpersonal abysses which lap at the periphery of developing consciousness. She is an emergent property of Being playing at becoming sovereign. She really, really loves butter.
