“What am I Missing?” Short slide show planned for Friday, Oct. 6, at 12:00pm (Massachusetts time)
Posted by Laurie Lassiter
“The Emotional System: What am I Missing?” On Friday, Oct. 6, at 12:00 pm, I will begin with a short slide presentation to generate discussion about the Emotional System with Stephanie and Jim Edd, and any others who can participate on Zoom for 25-30 minutes.
One issue for me is how to keep the concept of the emotional system alive. I will review some of the ways that I think about it, asking what are the implications of the points?
Although it varies according to level of differentiation of self, it seems to me that for many of us managing and guiding self remains a distant frontier. I can sense that I am inside of a mind set that is programmed by the environment, but the best I can do is to acknowledge that my feelings, thoughts, and beliefs are not truly my own.
To move toward free will requires seeing more and more how I do not have free will. How am I preventing the exercise of free will in others?
These are personal questions, but the slides will review some formal aspects of the concept of the emotional system, asking “What can another look at the ideas contribute to foster more freedom?”
