emotion control with Dialectical Behavior Therapy

 2022.9.30: news.psy/
emotion control with Dialectical Behavior Therapy:

psychiatry prof Maria Clarke 2022

https://amzn.to/3fuUq9h[ad]

DBT skills workbook in 7 weeks: 

Use Dialectical Behavior Therapy to overcome negativity, 

manage your emotions and improve your relationships. 


. prof Clarke successfully treated her own emotional pain

with a program designed to treat Borderline Personality Disorder.

. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (finding the middle ground)

is based on cognitive behavioral therapy

and dhamma, the teachings of Bhudda.

. it involves meditation, controlled breathing, journaling, 

exposure to intense exercise, temperature extremes,

and alternating between tensing and relaxing each muscle group.

. there are many techniques for negotiating with

your emotion maker and other relationships;

eg, part of self-respect is not relating to those who

require us to change our values or lie about them:

"it's ok to walk away from a toxic relationship".

"cis-gender" are you calling me a cis?

 22.6.6: web.psy/cis-gender/are you calling me a cis?:


. cis-gender people identify as 

the same gender they were assigned at birth, 

while transgender people identify as

a gender different from that assigned at birth.

[Canadian Med Assoc J JUNE 6, 2022]

https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-06-transgender-sexual-minority-teens-high.html


. I wondered if that terminology was meant to

make straight people ask rhetorically:

"are you calling me a cis?"

but the source of that term actually comes from

their latin definitions.

. there may be trans-nationals

but there are no cis-nationals;

so why should there be cis-genders?

. some confusion comes because 

trans- has 2 meanings in Latin:

you can have a transnational corporation

because trans- can mean "beyond",

so a transnational is beyond national borders;

but you can also have a trans-gender,

because trans- also means "on the other side".

. trans-gender can mean "beyond gender"

if you are choosing to appear asexual or ambiguous,

but conventionally it means moving across genders,

going from one to the other.

hrblock.com appearing to do free tax filing until I qualified for Saver's Credit

 2021.2.3: mis.cyb/net.hrblock.com/

hrblock.com pretending to do free tax filing until I qualified for Saver's Credit:

I tried HR free file from this link;

https://www.hrblock.com/online-tax-filing/free-online-tax-filing/

even after Fox news said H&R Block said

they were pulling out of the free e-file tax business.

[foxbusiness Jun 16, 2020]

https://www.foxbusiness.com/personal-finance/hr-block-irs-relationship-free-file

"Tax preparation company H&R Block 

has decided it will no longer participate

in an IRS sponsored program to provide

free filing options to low-income Americans."

. I was confused because H&R Block does indeed

still claim to provide some free service,

but their free offer didn't apply to me

because you can't have savers credit for free.

are my thoughts useful? how do they behave?

20.6.25: tv.psy/schiz/are my thoughts useful? how do they behave?
Dr. Anthony Metivier:
. some people feel like their thoughts are too much;
oppressive streams of unwanted negative ideas;
antipsychotics and other drugs often don't help;
and atheism can be most unhelpful
[ I know I feel more control over
my thoughts and their effect on me,
when I realize they come from the supernatural,
not self].
. helpful paths include a study of:
Persistent Non-Symbolic Experience
refers to nondual awareness,
enlightenment, or mystical experiences.
-- see Jeffery Martin`Clusters Of Individual Experiences
Form A Continuum Of Persistent Non-Symbolic Experiences In Adults
Dr. Gary Weber 2018`Evolving Beyond Thought:
Updating Your Brain's Software.
http://happiness-beyond-thought.com/
http://www.spiritualteachers.org/gary-weber/
. the simplest method for quieting the mind
is to keep asking yourself these questions:
are my thoughts useful?
how do they behave?

progesterone is equally a male hormone

progesterone is equally a male hormone:
wbur.org 2020:
"Doctors Test Whether Female Sex Hormones
Could Help Men Fight COVID-19"
[progesterone is an anti-inflammatory]
--
this news is promoting a common misconception!
progesterone is a female hormone? no!
. men's levels of progesterone are similar to
those of fertile women before month's ovulation.

#christian proof our #god does not hate #queers

9.5: relig/christian/proof our god does not hate queers:
. Rush Limbaugh on the radio reminds us
people who believe in the god
don't worry about global warming;
because, this place was made for us,
so, how could it be so easily destroyed
by such things as cow belching?
. also, I couldn't find it in his transcript
but I thought he said something
that seemed similar to the idea
that the god of the entire universe
hates unrepentant queers;
has Rush any idea
just how queer nature really is?

cultural appropriation @IngrahamAngle on @FoxNews

5.2: pol/free speech/cultural appropriation:
@IngrahamAngle on @FoxNews tv:
. you can say I feel like the other sex today,
so I will just dress like the other sex,
and use their bathroom too;
but if you feel chinese,
and say I will dress like the Chinese today,
that's hateful cultural appropriation.

menstrual synchrony supports #telepathy

news.psy/parapsy/telepathy/menstrual synchrony:
10.28: 12.9: summary:
. menstrual synchrony refers to
the ability of women who live together
to align their menstrual periods
implying they would have to reset
the duration of their period.
. snopes calls it unproven.
. see list of all the conflicting studies
concerning Menstrual_synchrony.
. one problem with this theory
is that no physical communication
such as human pheromones
have been found to explain it,
thereby leading to the idea
that it involves being influenced by
a collective subconscious,
and if that exists,
it would support the idea of telepathy
which is considered a "bizarre delusion";
ie, there is widespread suppression
of even good telepathy evidence.
[ Rupert Sheldrake`telephone telepathy]
. see Rupert Sheldrake`The Extended Mind.
. the suppression of telepathy evidence
is part of both establishment atheism,
and biblical laws against remote-viewing
and other uses of the collective subcon'mind.

Pinocchio

web.psy/schiz/Pinocchio:
10.22: summary:
. before you are aware that the devil
influences your thoughts and emotions
you think of every thought as self,
and have an unquestioning allegiance to them;
you are a puppet of the devil
until you begin to question yourself,
then you become a human, like Pinocchio.

laws against the #paranormal #judaism #christianity

6.1: 6.6: news,web.relig/judaism/
laws against the paranormal:
. in case you were wondering why
remote viewing and ESP could be considered
pseudoscience despite overwhelming evidence;
historically science had been dominated by
Christians (following the god of Judaism,
who commanded that remote viewing and ESP
are secret arts punishable by death or stoning).

happy mother's day

. mother is a social engineer:
shaping the mind of the new generation
to fit within the day's culture:
mother prunes the thorns of the devil
and develops fruitful shade trees.
. mother encourages the timid,
and sobers the foolish;
she would be the first to teach,
and the last to leave.
. and when her time on Earth was done,
the god kept her voice with us always.
