Hi, am a therapist too and started the coaching training, it's bringing everything I ever learned together in an amazing program and process and am loving it. Worth checking out. Annelies
this is complex and it took me more time than you indicated. Breathe - inhale 4/ exhale 6...
This is where I come from in years of experience in spirituality*, philosophy, neuroscience, psychology. All this autodidactic studies without degree.
International Project Shipping was my field of activity in over 30 years as an entrepreneur.
Connecting people, listening without understanding a word in many places I was. Speaking
4 languages, being on the way to number five (Albanian), while having moved my center of
living to Gjakova (Rep.of Kosovo).
*spirituality is my daily compass coming from Stoicism for disciplined base structuring.
India and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi is my spiritual 'grandpa'. Five Peace Rules - no
opression or manipulation, always the truth, no fear, no violence and always the good in an
opposite. On to Japan, Korea, China - DAO The Way - Tao Te Ching...
And Tears streamed down his cheeks, dripping from his chin. And he never fealt embarrassed.
This was my first Signal from inside out after reading your study - outside in.
Congratulation Dr. Jade Teta.
Let me come from the opposite direction, when nearing *spirituality via experiencing Religion
around the world. Unconscious, subconscious, conscious - Being. Awareness and mindfulness...
Communication without application of language - transcendental**. Picture me in a monastry in
China with Shaolin Monks. No talking away from eligibility. Mental hard work, no distraction, pure quiet and peace. Always with a smile in your face with gratitude. Bodily work day by day
and Martial Arts Trial, what I rejected with clarity. Hiking into the Himalayas instead with monks.
**transcendental interaction as means of understanding in patience, harmony and peace. A smile
signalling understanding.
Today living in Kosovo, connected to nature, purity, quiet and peace. Being here to help people
find themselves within, to do good without. My whole inner communication and understanding
happens from deep down within. What you name consciousness with pauses all through the day
for rest and recovery of body and mind. This accompanied by good nutrition, simple, easy to digest. Plus biking - roadbike and MTB - formerly Cross Triathlon amateur. (400 km per week)
Neuroplasmic generation is depending on this and more. Focus and awareness level is high without fail and exhaustion, but part of my being self day be day, hour by hour, minute by minute, second by second,...like the grain of sand in Universe,...
To me there is no alternative to your wishful design and reality. Consciousness feeds into brain,
while experience, knowledge, wisdom connect and design and create. Your song image is so ful-filling. Music is part of days in its wholeness. Another supportive routine to my neural expansion.
I wish you all the best, 'to win against money driven disconnection***' from obvious truth and natural reality... Per aspera ad astra.
***Sorry for this idiom.
No valuing and judgement. No emotions triggering initiative for substance.
I'm trying to save Civilization by drawing attention to an extraordinary moment that's trying to happen. The monks Theory of Everything is explaining mystery after mystery after mystery while our scientists are saying crazy things and admitting that they can't make sense of any of the crazy things they are saying and now cannot understand 95% of the universe.
We need to quickly start solving our problems which this allows us to do otherwise we will resort to violence to solve our problems. I was hoping that you would help me avoid that by letting me somehow talk to your audience or maybe write an article with you to your audience about this exciting moment and get some attention that it deserves?
Interesting delineation of the four types of intellect. I'm curious how you landed on those four vs. something like Jung's four types. Also curious to know more about what somatic work you employ with clients.
In this article I’m doing something a little different. Instead of mapping directly onto Jung’s functions, I’m carving the territory in terms of intellects that show up in identity work. My aim is less typology in the strict Jungian sense and more a pragmatic map for how people process experience and make choices in real time. On the somatic side, I work with the body as the ‘live readout’ of a person’s narrative and nervous system.... and I use tapping, stroking, havening, EMDR as well as movement/flow/dance based on the person. This work adjust to the way the individuals subconscious expresses
Ahhh, very interesting. And are you attempting to balance someone decision making through weaker intellects? Emphasizing the strengths? or more a case by case approach?
I’ve realized somatic work is a huge gap in my knowledge base. Do you have an other articles where you talk about that more in depth?
Hey Cory the somatic piece we use in my work is mainly about location, description, intention and action…. For example we might have a person focus on a feeling in the body… And describe it metaphorically such as giving it a temperature or a texture or a symbol or a personality… Most usually anthropomorphizing it. This creates self distancing. Allows somebody to no longer feel like they have the thing, but that the thing is outside of themselves and instructive. Then we said intentions around what we want to do with the material. This is almost always looking for the lessons contained within the material. Essentially asking the body what it’s trying to tell us. This self distancing, allows for the person to engage with their body differently. So that’s one aspect of it and it’s a huge component. Perhaps the component that is most recognizable to people is things like EMDR or tapping or any kind of bilateral stimulation while undergoing emotional material so these are the two most common ways we use it. But there are other ways. Does that help?
Well I was trained in Humanistic/Rogerian, Jungian, and Psychodynamic therapy, so I have been evolving my own approach to those paradigms as best I can, well as weaving in a lot of existential meaning making type work. However, I am trying to move my work toward more experiential, felt/sense, presence type stuff, hence my questions. I find all the analytical word exchange can be such a hinderance sometimes! were all so in our heads already. I love dream analysis and have a pretty affect forward approach to that, as well as trying to cultivate my own attention and ability to hold silences, so much can come forward in those moments. Im also currently learning EMDR and although I was a skeptic at first i'm starting to come around. I wondering what a very affect focused form of EMDR may look like. I also frequently conduct ketamine assisted psychotherapy and integration, one of my favorite tools for sure.
Sounds like you are doing amazing work. Love all of that. And I agree the talking and processing … while important and useful as part of the process… leaves so much out when used alone. My background is functional medicine. I was dragged into this work because story is what changes people and that does not live at the level of metabolism and habits
The most brilliant philosophy ✨
Following you and very interested. Im a therapist of half a century incorporating everything and always learning.

Brilliant writing, Dr. Teta. Saving this for future study,

Super helpful. I love the anthropomorphizing of the feelings. I’m definitely going to start working that sort of thing into my work
I’d be curious to learn more about your work As well
