they’re really not your only two options that was just a menu of a sampling of my ideal sorta

gross over generalization … a bit like the op meme :-)

What a terribly reductionist POV.

A few antidotes:

study and learn Somatic Experiencing. (Where in your body do you feel a given emotion ? Where is tension felt? where is relaxation felt? where is sadness felt? )

study some real yoga (not stretching

but actual yoga ie meditation breath-work soma practices )

  • The Lives of a Cell (1970s? 1980s? Lewis Carrol, iirc)

  • The Hidden Life of Trees (2016)

  • The Dawn of Everything : A New History of Humanity (D. Graeber and D. Wengrow)

  • Being Bodies

  • Somatic Experiencing

  • Sex At Dawn

  • The Story of B (Daniel Quinn)

My response to those sorts of ridiculous claims is, •Huh. I guess you haven’t heard of “intersex”. What do you call a human baby who was biologically born with bits of both??

That usually stumps them for a bit. Data-does-not-compute. Oe they ignore it and go back to their original point. … at which pt i have to hold empathy-space & validation (≠ does not equate with agreement/condoning, see footnote [1])… … and then — if and only if they seem open — ask them about if they’re aware that some human babies — to be clear, not trans folx in most case (well except by way of uninformed/nonconsent at birth, ugh) — but some human babies are born intersex.

usually tho i just leave it and no pt in doing so online usually

[1] hold empathy-space & validation does not equal & does not equate with agreement/condoning btw, as any good de-escalation specialist (like an fbi hostage negotiator or a therapist or life-coach) can tell explain better than i can rn.

Looks like a lot! Hope it’s being split 2x ways.

Digital detritus = SO not important. … i mean RELATIVELY. Trust me.

Go live your life, insofar as you are able to, friend :-)

Find an actual sharing group like #BuyNothingProject or #ToolLendingLibrary or something crew to kick it with.

or https://shareable.net for reading (been ages since I checked it).

@lemmy@fmhy.ml any idea why I can’t see that post in-app by going to RenWillis’ timeline, but why I can see it via a public web browser?

Not that you actually asked for advice.

Maybe you — or maybe others — would welcome these resources ( maybe)

“Five Stages of Grief”

“The Power of Vulnerability”

NVC lexicon list of universal feelings and needs

and. Q: How might one define ‘emotions’ ? A: One definition I like is: “Emotions are: a physical, felt sensation in the body. ”

So we need to FEEL them (not analyze, like I did), to heal.

(and there’s supporting research done in this area too)
