I've learned so much from this channel, about how to live life. Especially, Carl Jung's statement that when we Individuate, or attain personality, it leads to Isolation. Also, the video about Nietzsche explaining why mankind is so shallow. That shallowness is almost mankind's default position. Also, Jung and the Man-Child. So Good and so enlightening. Keep up the good work.

It's wild, I didn't know anything about body language until I was about 18-20. I thankfully studied psych and soc in college and it gave me a new way to look at things. That coupled with working in restaurants for the 7 years I was in college gave me a wide array of people to study. Body language says WAY more than people may want to admit about themselves. I've gotten to a point where I've realized that people have body language in their cars too. They have a tendency to do the same things before they do something particular. I travel a busy ass highway at least to and from work once a day if not again after and I have been studying people's movements and they usually give themselves away before doing something stupid or crazy or even just changing lanes. Sometimes it's a situational issue where no one pays attention to the signs telling them their lane is ending or their lane is an exit only and they all do the same thing, but it's like you can tell which ones are coming over even without a signal just by watching the minute details of their car. It's a great thing to watch people. It gives you a huge insight.

In Arabic, the word for character is خُلُق (khuluk), and the word for creation is خَلْخ (khalk). Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم taught us a supplication whenever we see our reflection: O Allah, better (or beautify) our character just as you have beautified our creation. And when said in Arabic it has a beautiful rhyme to it since the words are so similar and originate from the same root word. (every word in Arabic originates from a 3 letter root word).

We can witness this connection with anxious dogs. They can be trained, in a place they feel safe, to pose with their head and tail high, and be rewarded every time they strike that pose. Then take them where they're uncomfortable, and demand that pose from them. The more it's done, the more the posture changes them. A scaredy dog can be come a relaxed dog, simply by forcing them to fake some confidence on a regular basis

Here is a spiritual thought on this whole body image thing: Taking into consideration there are SO many different bodies and looks, it seems to be that a soul or consciousness will take a certain vessel that will be the right one to do what it needs to do in their life, and to meet the people they need to meet. This can work out in challenges as well as rewards of experience. You look exactly the way you are supposed to look, and while you can be your healthiest and most optimal weight, you still will have a certain body type depending on factors that can not be changed. This suggests that instead of criticizing ourselves, we must always learn to work with what we have, and learn to use this body to the best of our ability in this life.

The thing I have against body language is that it is not reliable because people are so different. It's easily misinterpreted. Someone might seem confident to one one person and egotistical to the next. People have different levels of things like, self-consciousness, shyness, etc. These things aren't what makes us who we are, they are part of HOW WE EXPRESS who we are. I agree in the mind-body connection but I don't agree with reading too much into body language.

Absolutely fantastic video. Everything here is presented clearly and rationally. I read Lowen extensively decades ago and had forgotten how brilliant he was. The only thing Lowen lacked was the reality of transcendence, after the self actualization of mind and body in order, balance and harmony with soul, spirit and earth, which is fundamentally the central purpose. I also read Nietzche extensively and arrived at the conclusion that he was a self-indulgent mama's boy who's life did not exactly epitmize his lofty ideals.

The connection between mind and body *has* been a contentious body of debate. Very true. Our understanding of it has been much LESS shrouded in mystery than any other time however. Furthermore, The mind and the body do not only exist in a dialectic relatioship, but the mind is a subsystem, aka is included into - the body. The mind and it's processes are the processes of our nervous system. Cheers my friend, thanks for the delightful video essays. It shows how much effort went into them ;)

I used to be overweight, when I see large folks who plead and beg for respect and acceptance I do not feel bad anymore. Your body is an exact reflection of your habits. Either you stay fit habitually or you don't, and those who don't are apparent. Body acceptance is for those with weird knee shapes or atypical skin, it's not for unhealthy humans.

There really is no need to separate the idea of body and mind. I see it as a result of individuality running wild and undisciplined. Body is mind mind is body. That is why they correlate and cause. Two sides of the same coin.

I street dance everyday. Several times a day. And while I'm sure everyone driving by thinks I'm a freakshow, the joy my Spirit exudes cannot be contained within my body, so I literally dance everywhere I go . . I'm also sober from alcohol 2 years, got stupid into nutrition . . like . . I make my own pecan milk . . and I do the OMAD keto gig. Never been healthier or happier - it's fucking crazy

Thx for mentioning Alexander Lowen, also responsible for some of the best theories and understanding surrounding clinical Narcissism, including his aptly titled book, 'Narcissism: Denial of the True Self'... with the True Self being not simply the Ego, but also a connection with our Body and Inner Self.

While I believe in the importance of taking care of the physical body, as a heterosexual female, I’ve found that a vast majority of the men I’ve interacted with who have been conventionally attractive, physically fit & focused heavily on working out...did not have much to talk about. It seemed too many focus extra time and attention on sculpting all of the muscles except the most important one: the brain, or mind...and even worse, they also ignore the spirit and consciousness. They seem to depend on their physique and become/remain shallow in other key areas. That being said, anyone, male, female or otherwise, becomes 15% more attractive when they straighten their posture and walk with a sense of confidence.

fulltang 65 thanks! I try. I am often told (usually by married people) that I am too picky in choosing a partner. But I trust my instinct. I encourage others to trust their instincts, too. Listen to the “gut feeling,” or a sense of knowing something is right or wrong, even if you don’t (immediately) know why. Also, I’m grateful for channels like this!

A man once talked about his Psychology of Aggresive Legs on the ground in dreams. He said something like.. He had Dreams of not being able to run fast enough because his body keeps floating up into the air a few feet then slowly coming down to the ground like a balloon or if he was running under water. There will be each feet only catching on the ground only 1 or 2 times before floating back up and kicking his feet in the air missing the ground again. His body can sometimes be lowered to the ground by leaning forward but he'll have to wait a split second for his body get closer to the ground. And then aggressive steps or kicks to the ground at an angle will create more speed but will use up power. He eventually goes back to straight up walking keeping his feet below him so he can touch the ground faster. But with one step and kicking in the air and moving slower again. He thought it meant that his embodiment of the load that one is carrying is not heavy enough to ground him to move him forward in his awaken life. He isn't taking on enough responsibilities. A burden that is heavy enough so that his life will mean something and will strive forward. So strong legs could mean to have purpose and reason to go somewhere.
