My name is Christian Swenson. I'm a 29-year old autistic man with interests in philosophy, art history, and all sorts of things. I made this channel to talk about the experience of autism from an autistic perspective. Autistic consciousness isn't normal consciousness. The autistic world isn't the normal world. I want to explore that world with you.
This reminds me about a book I found on peripersonal space: The Spaces Between Us: by Michael Graziano .
If that goes awry one might find it difficult to distinguish (and gain comfort from knowing) where a person ends and the environment begins.
This video spoke to me.
Hope you’re ok.
Noticed you hadn’t posted in a while.
Philosophy and therapy. What a beautiful insight. Thanks
There are many ancient & contemporary systems for developing heightened awareness of the bodymind's signals: Vipassana meditation, yoga, deep bodywork therapies (such as shiatsu, deep tissue, thai massage and others), deep relaxation and subtle energy therapies (such as reiki), dynamic meditation and Holotropic Breathwork are all excellent methods, provided one applies genuine effort over time.
A great video! Thanks a lot! There were a lot of thoughts, that i liked. You look great, congrats to the new apartment!
My daughter moves stuff around. Why ?? Furniture goes where it goes !!! I moved in and it’s done. Yes, I want permanence.
This is fascinating!
When I was very young I used to listen to my heartbeat as a stim. This is the first time I've heard anyone mention doing that.
There are traditional meditation techniques rather like this (internal focus). It makes me think that you're onto something.
This is great that you're looking for ways to address the need for stability/sameness in a way that is achievable and not restrictive/problematic.
Great video, i can relate to a lot of this
Alexathymia is more about emotional feelings than bodily feeling, isn't it? I don't gave stims or restrictive interests but my spouse thinks I'm on the spectrum. I passed the tested and thus I continue in grayness. Alone. The only perminance isn't it? I'm not a fan.
I just figured out who you remind me of... Do you happen to watch a lot of John Stossel? Your infections are similar at times.
This is the first I've heard of John Stossel. I'm intrigued now.
