A nice and succinct overview of Egoic Defense Mechanisms on #InfiniteConversations:

https://www.infiniteconversations.com/t/egoic-defense-mechanisms/5769

I can particularly identify with: "I have been running on deeply held assumptions that’s it not safe to fully rest in my body and that I can’t trust anybody so I need to do everything alone."

Gotta honor and let that shit go!

Planning a reorganization of #InfiniteConversations. I always feel a little sad letting go of an old taxonomy… in this case of channels and sub-channels (for #Discourse categories and sub-categories). Yet new order is forever wanting to emerge from the soup of cognitive chaos which our messy minds have become—as to an overgrown garden we tend. The new arrangement, which comes out of conversations with Gj and @douggins, will be more friendly and appealing to newcomers, we hope.
