    Episode 109: RE-RELEASE: Against Mindfulness

    Episode 109: RE-RELEASE: Against Mindfulness
    Playing devil's advocate, Yoel and Mickey mount a criticism against the scientific study of mindfulness. What is mindfulness? Can we measure it? Is mindfulness-based therapy effective? Can mindfulness improve the quality of attention beyond the meditation cushion? Are effects of mindfulness mostly placebo effects produced by motivated practitioners and adherents? Should we be impressed by mindfulness meditation’s supposed effects on conceptions of the self? Is mindfulness, in all its complexity, amenable to scientific study? Bonus: Is the value of diversity and inclusivity a core part of open science? This is a re-release of an episode first released on August 7, 2019.

As we dive into Ku's archetype, we draw intriguing connections to Jung's 'The Self,' a concept representing the deepest, most authentic core of the human psyche. Join us in uncovering the remarkable interplay between these two powerful forces.

    Accompanied by Kane, the divine creator, we traverse the verses of the Kumulipo where life emerges from the darkness. Dive into Kane's archetype and explore its alignment with Jung's 'The Self.' Discover how both concepts bring harmony, purpose, and profound insight into our lives.

    **Kanaloa: The Oceanic Depths of 'The Self'**

    Plunge into the enigmatic depths of the oceanic realm with Kanaloa, the guardian of the deep. Unearth the profound connections between Kanaloa's archetype and Jung's exploration of the unconscious, where hidden truths and mysteries are unveiled. Join us on this mesmerizing dive into the human psyche.

    **Lono: 'The Self' and the Essence of Abundance**

    Lono's benevolent energy dances through the verses of the Kumulipo, symbolizing abundance, peace, and prosperity. Dive into Lono's archetype with Jung's 'The Self' as a source of completeness and fulfillment in the human experience. Explore how these concepts manifest in contemporary Hawaiian culture and their role in personal growth and self-discovery.

    Episode 79: All About Authenticity

    Episode 79: All About Authenticity
    Alexa and Yoel talk authenticity. What is it? Is it good to have it? And why does Alexa score higher on it than Yoel? We talk about a draft paper examining how people infer authenticity in themselves and others, and a recently-published paper suggesting that supposedly highly authentic people might just be motivated to present themselves that way. Plus, Alexa drinks some listener-supplied beer, with favorable results, and we discuss who the most famous academic is.

    Welcome to "The Future of You" - Trailer

    Welcome to "The Future of You" - Trailer

    Hello, welcome to the Future of You podcast. Here we’re going to investigate and analyse all the ways emerging technologies are going to affect our identity. 

    We used to argue about whether personal identity was in the mind or in the body; But now that psychology of the self and the biology of self has been joined by a third dimension - the technology of the self. 

    In a digital, data-driven world, Facebook gets a say in verifying who we are, medical science can alter our genetic make-up, and AI will help us create our digital twin - just how many identities do we need in the multiverse? 

    How is 21st Century technology changing who we are?

    I set out to research exactly that, when I wrote my book The Future of You. That turned out to be only the start of my journey into our changing identity in a digital world.  And I thought rather than continue to research this on my own, I could invite you along too. 

    I’m Tracey Follows, I’m a futurist and founder of Futuremade, the futures consultancy, and I’ve helped brands and businesses like Virgin, Google, Diageo and Farfetch spot trends, develop strategic foresight and fully prepare for what comes next. 

    And I believe identity is the defining issue of our generation. So every fortnight I’ll be releasing new episodes, featuring panels of experts as we delve into topics such as how we use media to express our selves, the emergence of the extreme self, transhumanism and the augmented self; anonymity, genetics, biometrics, mind clones, and the digital afterlife   - these are just some of the innovations, and controversies, we’ll cover. 

    Join the community, buy the book at thefutureofyou.co.uk or connect with me on twitter at @traceyfutures

    Please come with me on this journey to explore identity in the digital world, as we investigate the future of me, and the future of you.  

    See you soon for episode 1. 

    E3 This is not the end of the road: C.G Jung & Theology with Sean J McGrath

    E3 This is not the end of the road: C.G Jung & Theology with Sean J McGrath
    At the end of the day, psychological integration is not salvation. And I think that most people who have done the work will be ready enough to concede that. This is not the end of the road, it’s not salvation. What do we want? We don’t want just integrated individuals, but we want a redeemed order of being, we want justice on earth.


    Episode description:

    Sean McGrath is a Professor of Philosophy and Theology, a researcher of the philosophical roots of psychoanalysis, and a former professed Catholic Monk. In this episode, McGrath shares some of his learnings from the monastery, before helping us to understand how C.G Jung (mis)understood evil, and the role of the feminine in Christianity. MLast, but not least, McGrath helps us to connect how inner work and individuation link to the actions in the outer world: how by laying down your life for your community you might find the inner peace that you seek.

    29. God Explains The Self Behind The Self | Dramatic Adaptation Of God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher [Part 29]

    Welcome to God: An Autobiography, The Podcast. A dramatic adaptation and continuing discussion of the book God: An Autobiography, As Told To A Philosopher by Jerry L. Martin. 

    He was a lifelong agnostic, but one day he had an occasion to pray. To his vast surprise, God answered- in words. Being a philosopher, he had a lot of questions, and God had a lot to tell him. 

    "The Indian relates to Me through an aspect of the Self that relates to, or is identical with, Me in my total form."  

    God's experiences, history, and evolution are rooted in humankind's condition, development, and response to God.

    Go beyond the tip of the iceberg, and dive deeper into the concept of the Self beyond the Self to prepare for upcoming episodes in the series Where Two Philosophers Wrestle with God- a dynamic dialogue between two philosophers who will begin shifting the conversation towards investigating the nature of human beings.

    "I cannot move at a pace greater than the human reactions. That is why it is important for you to tell My story, My history of interactions with humans, from My side. You will see that a development in God is really a response to, (and) conditioned by the development of men (human beings) and their response to me."

    In & Of Itself

    In & Of Itself

    This week we covered Derek DelGaudio’s In & Of Itself, an off-broadway show that was made for TV by Hulu. As described by its own website, a story reveals the illusion of one's identity in Derek DelGaudio's modern allegory, In & Of Itself. New ways of seeing the unseeable are explored, as memories from yesterday, inexplicable events witnessed today and secrets imagined for tomorrow all blend together, creating a perpetual paradox of a show. We had similar but also opposing views on this show, and we break it all down for you in this episode.

    Episode 49: Why Buddhism is Wrong (with Evan Thompson)

    Episode 49: Why Buddhism is Wrong (with Evan Thompson)
    Yoel and Mickey have a far ranging conversation with University of British Columbia professor of philosophy, Evan Thompson. Despite growing up with a daily meditation practice and contributing to the cognitive science of mindfulness, why does Evan not consider himself a Buddhist? Is Buddhism a religion that is truly different from other religions? Is the self an illusion, as is popularily portrayed by Buddhist modernists such as Sam Harris? What do failures to replicate social psychology studies of embodied cognition mean for the larger enterprise of embodied cognition? Can science and traditional Buddhism co-exist? Why is Evolutionary Psychology a doomed entreprise? Bonus: Which city is superior, Toronto or Vancouver? Special Guest: Evan Thompson.

    Evening Things Out, Bending Toward Reality

    Evening Things Out, Bending Toward Reality

    "A sage steers by the bright light of confusion and doubt." - Zhuangzi

    Ah, how good to hear this, given the abundance of confusion and doubt these days. And yet, the abundance of confusion and doubt is not because the world has fundamentally changed, but because the usually reliable and dependable ways of perceiving, organizing and understanding our world are being challenged, losing their relevance, falling apart, revealing more fully the ever present, chaotic nature of reality itself. These templates we develop and stories we perpetuate are helpful to have as we navigate through life, but the more we solidify, fortify and insist upon their validity, the more removed we become from the reality we're navigating, so much so that when we meet this reality more directly, we call it chaos and are filled with confusion and doubt. Fortunately, as Zhuangzi mentions above, this very chaos, confusion and doubt itself provides the light by which we can steer and make our way through, and supports us in bending ever more and more toward reality as we journey along.

    Surrender

    Welcome back to the Spirits in Poetry Frequency Podcast!

    This episode is a conversation on the act of Surrender and what it means to let go. This episode was recorded during my own struggle with surrender at a time where the universe is really testing me. Everything I am, everything we are is unraveling and we are forced to experience the destruction of all structures we have invested in. 

    But it's going to be okay.

    The Psychology of Time

    The Psychology of Time

    Since we can’t prove that time physically exists, it must live somewhere inside the human mind. With the help of neuropsychologist Marc Wittmann, this episode takes a closer look at subjective time — the time we ‘feel’ — to see how our brains create our sense of time, and why it’s constantly speeding up and slowing down.

    This episode in brief

    1. How we are able to perceive time | 02:30

    Time processing plays a role in almost all aspects of our cognitive function. But what exactly is happening in our brain? This episode introduces the core mechanism of time perception, from the 3-second perceptual moment, to the combined role of memory, attention and anticipation. We see that our brain is constantly throwing out predictions based on previous experience and testing them against new information in our environment.

    2. How the brain keeps time | 08:45

    Even though we can’t see, touch or hear time, our brains can still track its passage. We know what minutes and hour feel like, even when sat in a windowless meeting room. But how do we do this? This section explores some of the theories around how and where the brain predicts duration — both when consciously paying attention to time passing, or reconstructing a sense of it after the fact.

    3. Why does time speed up and slow down? | 12:50

    Unlike clock time, the time you directly experience isn’t steady and constant. It’s continually speeding up and slowing down, and as we age time seems to get faster. But what causes this flux? With the help of neuropsychologist Marc Wittmann, we explore how memory density, novelty, signpost events, attention to time, drugs affecting dopamine and emotional states all impact our perception of time. We see that perceiving time in so many ways is not a design flaw, but an essential part of our humanity.
