The fact that something is difficult for you doesn’t mean that it’s difficult in general. CFAR for example teaches Gendlin’s Focusing. If you do Focusing and name the handle you either have a felt shift or you don’t. It’s clear and there’s not much room for self deception.
Cool that you find this method so powerful! To me it’s a question of scaling: do you think personal mindfulness practices like Gendlin’s Focusing are as easy to scale to a population as a gadget that tell you some truth about you? I guess each of these face very different challenges—but so far experience seems to show that we’re better at building fancy tech than we are at learning to change ourselves. What do you think is the most effective way to create such culture-shift?
