#78 - Dr. Claus Springborg: The Knot of Alienation (Part 4)Welcome to the fourth chapter in the series about the work of Dr. Claus Springborg, who has a new book out — and it’s not a small one. We have plenty to talk about, and in this episode, we explore themes of agency, creating one’s own life, and how responsibility easily gets confused when situations are classified in certain ways.
Tap in as we talk about:
•
• When and how we use automatic habits to create negative inner states, such as anxiety, nervousness about public speaking, and feeling personally attacked when given feedback.
• How we create our lives through unconscious processes and become alienated from our own creation and the world.
• Energy efficiency
• First, we create it, then fight it.
• Recognizing one’s own agency.
• If you are unaware that problems are your creations, you will not accept responsibility — how can we recognize what is within our control and what is not?
• Getting the identity upside down — the essence of who you are being confused with how you structure your experience.
• Seeing the machine room.
• Logical categories of learning with Gregory Bateson.
• "You can’t step into the same river twice," but the only way we can learn by trial and error is by classifying experiences as if they were the same.
• Classifications create the world to which you are reacting.
• Classifications that are unconscious and habitual.
• There is no true way of classifying situations — but one’s classifications have real effects.
• Not wanting to be mansplained to — and how to avoid it without having to change anyone else's behaviour.
• When the problem shows up in therapy several times but hasn’t been healed — and why that is not necessarily a problem.
