    I'm not an expert or have academic knowledge of psychology, but came to some of these realizations myself. It is better to be brutally honest with yourself, and accept your flaws, than to live in denial. I've done some introspection work and was surprised about the insights I've found. Your worst enemy is sometimes yourself and unfortunately sometimes ignorance is bliss.

    “Depression is like a woman in black. If she turns up, don’t shoo her away. Invite her in, offer her a seat, treat her like a guest and listen to what she wants to say.” Carl Jung.
    We feel down sometimes. And to face our emotional wounds is one of the most difficult lessons in life, I think.
    Instead of treating negative feeling like an enemy, it could be better to be kind, open and 'friendly' to depression, like the way we treat a friend. Because negative feeling reminds us that there is something wrong in life so that we need to aware, accept, and change. It sounds like what a true friend may tell us.

    Time of writing 5:10am: I feel as though you have two choices, like cleaning your room, one can either choose to clean the mess as it comes by addressing and confronting your as flaws you notice them in the hopes of always being the closest they can to your true self or, in the same way as you may let your room become cluttered and leave it for long enough that you ignore it and act as if it is perfect, a fake identity is formed and can be utilised to reach a certain goal or achieve a certain thing in a more efficient way than the true self. In this case a big clean may offer more of an advantage as you can have a psychological rebirth once this milestone is hit.

      @Baconator 1 And what is it though? Now I only dare to say that when it happens, it's connected to something meaningful. This topic confuses me sooo much I swear. I agree with paying attention to it and it increasing 10fold because some time back I let it guide my life for like 1-2 years. And I swear sometimes I could predict the future but I was too afraid of it and I let it behind because I thought I was going crazy. Looking back in that period of time I was almost crazy, as in acting out extremely different than what conventional humans do. It was the moment I decided consciously to explore my inner world. I could predict things in the outside world. I will give you just one example that comes from the top of my head. I was walking outside and there was a lamp post. this lamp post had a commercial on it and a phone number . i take a look at that phone number and my mind goes "that phone number looks a lot like John's" (fake name) and I didn't care about it and moved on with my life. i went somewhere. when i returned home, on the way back I met that person, and I didn't meet them in a long time. Also, sometimes, on top of everything else, I had these moments where this kind of prediction would appear inside me and after the initial thought like before - "that phone number looks a lot like John's" my mind would perceive the fact that there is something that will happen due to this. And it did. It's like double inception.

      It's not that interesting when you actually study it and realize it's correct. It's also not "often dismissed". It's downright dismissed because it's been proven, not by Freud himself, but by decades of research and practice that Jung's views, while interesting and attractive for people that see an enemy in rationality, are just mega errors in terms of reading the human mind. People simply work in much different ways than Jung ever realized. Jung is the actual reductionist in here. The human mind is incredibly complex and specific at the same time. If Jung was right, then everyone would've been healed by now since his words are not that hard to understand nor apply really. The problem is he developed 0 structure around the questions he asked, therefore anyone taking directly on Jung's views will sooner or later meet the same wall. Jung is like a self-help book. Which is why Jung is so likeable. But just like a self-help book, he's not actually helpful. And people today confuse likeable for helpful. And in psychology in order to be helpful, being likeable is not a requirement.

    My theory is that the mind has several layers. These are The conscious
    , The subconscious, and The emotions
    These layers are defined simply by how quickly the thoughts occur within them, and how accurate those thoughts are.
    The conscious has the slowest thought, but also the most logical and accurate thought.
    The subconscious is much faster than the conscious, and interacts with the conscious to help reach relevant information quickly. The subconscious retrieves information and organizes it to prepare it for conscious thought.
    The emotions are the fastest form of thought, making connections and reaching conclusions incredibly quickly. Unfortunately it also tends to be inaccurate, very inaccurate at times. And the brains pain, pleasure, and motivational responses (feelings) respond most to the emotional layer.
    As a result of how quickly the emotional layer creates connections, emotions are often incredibly complex. It is the challenge in self discovery to consciously explore and understand the complex connections in your emotions that create your feelings. The process of discovering the source of your emotions can take a very long time. Weeks, months, even years. It becomes especially difficult when there is an aversion or fear of self introspection, which often results in anxiety and depression.

That's why it's complicated, because there are many concepts in life that must be undersood on an emotional level and we haven't been educatend on how to do that. Love for example.

However i do need to warn people that if one decides to embark on the individuation journey it needs to be done with the aid of a psychologist as it can be extremely dangerous and cause absolut chaos in a person's life and shake the very core of their being. The chaos is part of the process and you need to be equiped and assisted to go through it otherwise the consequences on youself can be as worst as getting trapped in an internal hell for as long as you can sustain it.

The theories that Jung kept and then changed from his have been the ones that anyone invests any time and effort in, because they are empirically true.

      Carl Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, explored the realms of the unconscious and the collective unconscious, delving into the depths of the human psyche. While Jung did not specifically employ Kabbalah in his work, some of his concepts can be explored from a Kabbalistic lens, particularly when related to the symbolism of the Hebrew letters Shin (שׁ), Psi (Ψ), and Phi (Φ).
      1. Shin (שׁ) - Symbol of Divine Fire and Transformation:
      In Kabbalistic thought, the Hebrew letter Shin is associated with fire and divine light. It symbolizes the transformative and purifying power of divine energy. From a Jungian perspective, the symbolism of fire can be related to the transformative process of individuation-the journey towards wholeness and self-discovery.
      Jung's concept of individuation involves integrating the unconscious aspects of the psyche with conscious awareness, leading to a deeper understanding of the self and the realization of one's true nature. The transformative process of individuation is akin to the spiritual transformation represented by the divine fire of the Shin, burning away illusions and leading to spiritual growth and enlightenment.
      2. Psi (Ψ) - Symbol of Psychic and Spiritual Phenomena:
      In Jungian psychology, the symbol of Psi (Ψ) is often used to represent psychic and spiritual phenomena. Jung explored the realm of the collective unconscious, the repository of universal symbols and archetypes shared by humanity. Psi can symbolize the connection between the individual psyche and the collective unconscious, representing the potential for psychic abilities, intuition, and spiritual insights.
      From a Kabbalistic lens, the concept of Psi can be related to the Hebrew letter Shin and its association with divine intuition and spiritual insights. The Shin represents the divine fire of divine wisdom, which illuminates the path to higher consciousness and deeper spiritual understanding.
      3. Phi (Φ) - Symbol of the Golden Ratio and Divine Harmony:
      The concept of Phi (Φ) or the Golden Ratio involves a divine proportion found in nature and art. In Jungian terms, the Golden Ratio can be seen as a symbol of the quest for harmony and balance within the psyche.
      From a Kabbalistic lens, Phi can be related to the concept of divine proportion and harmony represented by the Hebrew letter Shin. The Shin is linked to the divine wisdom that underlies creation, reflecting the harmonious interplay of divine forces in the cosmos.
      In summary, while Carl Jung's work does not directly incorporate Kabbalah, certain aspects of his concepts can be explored through a Kabbalistic lens, particularly when relating to the symbolism of the Hebrew letters Shin, Psi, and Phi. Both Jungian psychology and Kabbalah share a deep interest in the exploration of the human psyche and spiritual growth, and they offer unique perspectives on the journey towards self-discovery and enlightenment.

    I agree. I think one of the subconscious's greatest gift is to hide how deep of a rabbit hole some of these shadows are. I think your everyday consciousness can handle seeing the shadows at a surface level, but if you end up going inside these shadows in earnest yet ill prepared, you can go temporarily insane. Personally when I went into one of my shadows I was just following a train of thought. It was like taking a normal trail path and all of a sudden I realized I was in a scary forest. So I panicked and ran home, but the forest followed me. I also felt something staring at me from deep in the woods. The scariest part was that day, and to a lesser degree the following days, a huge portion of my conscious focus/awareness was involuntarily and non-stop pointed at that "something" that was making it's presents felt. Anyways, that day ended up with me apologizing to my subconscious for a few things and told it how much I appreciate the work it's doing and the shield of ignorance and builds to protect me. It decided to go outside and took the scary forest with it.

      If something hasn't felt more on point. The funny thing is I've always felt. That something is really me. But not the me I can recognize. Just as you can't see your face without a reflection. I always question how many hands are actually on this wheel I call my mind?

    Loved the video, great job!
    I am going into a rabbit hole with psychological videos lately, and it is really helping me to learn more about the human nature.
    I had a psychological outburst a few months ago, couldn’t sleep for 4 nights straight, and amount other things I hallucinated my mental space, saw and heard 3 adults talking “inside” my head, and has been quite amusing to see theories like these, and understanding where they came from.
    So thanks for making this video!
