The Loneliness Epidemic and Descartes’ Legacy: How Mind-Body Dualism Shaped Our Emotional Disconnection Introduction The modern loneliness epidemic is often attributed to technological advancements, social media, or shifts in family structures. However, its roots go much deeper—stretching back to a philosophical shift that redefined how we perceive ourselves and others. René Descartes’ mind-body dualism, whichContinue reading “The Loneliness Epidemic and Descartes’ Legacy: How Mind-Body Dualism Shaped Our Emotional Disconnection”

Comparing Mirror Integration Therapy (MIT), Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP), and Stephen Hawking’s Theory of Everything (TOE)
Stephen Hawking, a renowned theoretical physicist, spoke extensively about the “Theory of Everything” (TOE), which he described as a single, unified framework that could explain all fundamental forces and particles of nature. His work focused on reconciling general relativity (which governs large-scale structures like galaxies) with quantum mechanics (which governs subatomic particles). Hawking believed thatContinue reading “Comparing Mirror Integration Therapy (MIT), Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP), and Stephen Hawking’s Theory of Everything (TOE)”
Common Denominators: Unifying Science, Spirituality, and Systems Theory into a Unified Theory of Everything
Imagine that everything in the world is connected, like puzzle pieces that form a big picture. Now, there are two ways to help fix the world when these pieces are out of place. One way is through Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) and Mirror Integration Therapy (MIT), which are science-based methods. FCP looks at how societiesContinue reading “Common Denominators: Unifying Science, Spirituality, and Systems Theory into a Unified Theory of Everything”
Shekhinah & Yichud: Healing the Fragmented World
Shekhinah: The Divine Feminine Presence in Judaism The Shekhinah is a concept in Jewish mysticism and theology that represents the feminine aspect of God, often associated with divine presence, compassion, and immanence. Unlike the more distant, transcendent idea of God (Ein Sof in Kabbalah or Yahweh in traditional Jewish thought), Shekhinah embodies God’s closeness toContinue reading “Shekhinah & Yichud: Healing the Fragmented World”
SpiroLateral: A Simple Explanation of My Ideas
For the Grown Ups… At its core, my work is about understanding why history keeps repeating itself and how we can finally break the cycle. I’ve connected Internal Family Systems (IFS), Systems Theory, Jungian Shadow Work, and World History to show that societies, just like people, get stuck in patterns of trauma and dysfunction. InsteadContinue reading “SpiroLateral: A Simple Explanation of My Ideas”
How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Solves the Incentive Problem in Capitalism
How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Solves the Incentive Problem in Capitalism The problem described in the above image is a structural feature of capitalism: The wealthy profit from systemic harm and therefore have no incentive to change it. This is not a bug, but a design feature of an exploitative system. FCP (Functional Conflict Perspective)Continue reading “How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Solves the Incentive Problem in Capitalism”
Earth’s Rights: A Sentient System Deserving Protection
The idea that the planet should have rights isn’t just a philosophical debate—it’s a necessary step toward protecting the very systems that sustain life. If corporations, which are human-made legal entities, can have rights, then surely the Earth, which gives us air, water, food, and shelter, deserves at least the same level of legal protection.Continue reading “Earth’s Rights: A Sentient System Deserving Protection”
Interconnectedness
See how you resonate with these 16 ideas from systems theorist Ervin László that describe Deep Awareness of the Unity and Interconnectedness of Everything… If you had an “aha experience” while reading even just one of these ideas, you have the foundations of Unity consciousness. And if you had this experience all the way through,Continue reading “Interconnectedness”
You are part of a living system
The way we treat each other in everyday life is like the building blocks of the whole world. If we build with kindness, honesty, and respect, we create strong, safe places to live. But if we build with fear, anger, and shutting people out, we create walls that trap us and make the world harderContinue reading “You are part of a living system”
Are you a Globalist? (if you are reading this, you probably already are. Welcome, the world has been waiting for you.)
How This Version of Globalism Differs from Traditional Globalism Traditional globalism is often associated with economic globalization, where multinational corporations and international institutions (e.g., the UN, IMF, World Bank) promote free trade, open markets, and economic integration. This version is hierarchical, profit-driven, and controlled by elites, leading to corporate dominance, economic inequality, and environmental exploitation.Continue reading “Are you a Globalist?
