Preface

A brief introduction to this blog.

Extract from the in-depth interview with the author of this blog:
What does Greetings from the Centre mean? What does Yoda’s Couch mean? What are the Salons?
What is the motivation? What is the intellectual background? What does post-integrative mean? And what is the moral of the story?

In Search Of The Lost Context

A selfie can be taken quickly,
Self-esteem takes more time.
A discussion about narcissism and on the metaphysics of ADHD.

A fictitious round table discussion with guests: a Zen master, an Indian guru, a psychotherapist and a neuropsychologist discuss how self-image and self-esteem develop.

The self finds resonance in the context of people, space and events. This is how self-images and self-awareness develop. Self-esteem is shaped by the quality of relationships and develops over time.

Debt-Guilt-Shame

The outer judge, the inner judge:
debt - guilt - shame.

A conversation between Dr Urs Egli, a lawyer, and Dr. med. Marc Melchert, a psychotherapist.
For the lawyer, debt makes it possible for labour and services to have a tradable value.
For the psychotherapist, feelings of guilt are a cognitive abstraction of feelings of shame.
