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

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, every emotion, memory, decision made is purposeful, and therefore, is synchronistic with person (you) 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 thus we are 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 or feeling overwhelmed (sensory and cognitively overloading the working memory).

Through learning how to tap (tactus) into our feeling and “sit” (mentally or literally) 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. Myself too.

Learning to observe ourself is the gift.
