mens-en-wereld
deel III

Topics

In this third and final part of my trilogy, we will be addressing therapy, religion and the idea of alien lifeforms. To conclude my work, we will also take a look at a new medicine wheel that tries to bring a useful vision of the different states of psychological and social life and how they grow and evolve.

​

At first, we will be discussing at length the matter of psychological healing, especially with concern for the phenomenon of psychosis. We will be turning the world upside down by not considering the functioning by means of the ego and its repressive force as healthy and desirable, and try to propose another idea of health based on a more spiritual understanding of this psychodynamic element. Therefore, the matter of pathology, both in the inner and the outer world, changes accordingly and we can suggest other ends and goals of treating and guiding what may seem like difficult or unwanted evolutions.

​

With regards to religions, we will share some ideas about how there need not always be conflict and war between them, as they may all be means of climbing the same mountain, just from different sides.

​

We will briefly phantasize about alien lifeforms, good or bad and how we may relate to them.

​

At last, we will introduce a psycho-social medicine wheel, where we use the changing of the seasons and the differences in light and warmth to illustrate psychological and sociological growth and evolution, sickness and health.
