SLV: Just Links · 25 October 2008

Stopped doing these last May, but...

●  Kind of amazing psycho-biological discussion of intimacy. Nice to see the psychology field coming together after a long behaviorism/ analysis rift. Also, many little revelations and provocations here.

●  Didn’t listen to this yet, but probably good.

●  So long, cowboy. Goodbye letters to President Bush. Collective memory… internet node as graveside. So cathartic! I wrote my own, planning on a swift coup de grace, but it turned into a huge long letter. Guess I’m not over him.

●  It amazes me that ashtanga can resonate, and be a tool for healing, so far from the spoiled rich people sphere. So wonderful. I am curious whether the ashtanga community feels this has anything to do with us?

2. Joy – it’s so good, isn’t it? She’s from my shala. Such a lovely person.

   Owl, I liked the first link a lot. ‘Non-conscious reattunement’ and ‘mutual regulation of arousal and security’ really shine a different light on relationships. The question of two nervous systems attuning to each other must be interesting to those of us engaging in nadi shodana..

3. Oh, the nadi shodana is a REALLY a good angle on this topic. Gosh.

   Nervous systems are easily tripped; I think of how many partners chronically trigger one another. This whole mutual regulation thing is wondrous…

4. Yep. I agree that in those situations a focus on content is not necessarily the most productive. Will keep an eye out for this guy’s book when it comes out. To get a better grip on these reactions would be such a HUGE tool in relationships.
