Tao Approach To Therapy: Method To Reduce Our Mind-Chatter

Written By Sean Travis

Opus Cum Sui: Working with the Self

The theory states that each individual is the expert in their lives. In such, ever action, every thought, emotion, memory, decision made is purposeful, and therefore, is synchronistic with person and the event. There is no “right or wrong”, there is no “good or bad”. We discover that there are specific reasons why we feel, which are commonly overlooked, and jettisoned into the mind to problem solve.

Unfortunately, most of the time, the unsettled mind (created by the unsettled feeling) is creating undue pressure to our mind’s cognitive load. This is known as stress.

Through learning how to tap (tactus) into our feeling and, figuratively, “sit” with our-self, we learn how to attune to how we truly experience the moment. Once internal security is experienced, I am witnessing that people (patients) are letting go of issues quicker.

Over the years, I have experienced remarkable people sit with me and detail deep, meaningful memories. In many cases, these memories are attached to strong emotions which may distort the person's perception of themselves. I firmly believe that any person who makes a conscious decision to engage in therapy demonstrates strength. Time after time, I have witnessed these same people recognize the resiliency within themselves—that has always been there!

If we tune into ourselves just a little, we will see that we are synchronizing with everything and everyone all of the time. Turn yourself on and know that you did!
