Parker Foster
I would also love a Jung reading list.
And skinner too if anyone has one
Ryder Barnes
Albert Ellis. Pioneer of CBT, creator of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy. Greatest method of all time, greatest psychologist of all time.
Watch lecture on YouTube:
>How To Be a Perfect Non Perfectionist
Read books:
> How To Stubbornly Refuse to Be Miserable About Anything — Yes Anything!
> A New Guide To Rational Living
Brayden Johnson
prefer beck desu
Dominic Torres
Beck is good, for sure. For me Albert Ellis was much more effective compared to him and David Burns, though.
Luis Green
Reading self-help by that guy instead of dope alchemical mandalas by my boi jung.
>smdh
Chase Allen
Beck refined the principles of rt into cbt, which is the most popular/effective therapy now
Benjamin Brooks
True. One thing Ellis did very well was his insistence in philosophical change in the patient. Never saw that with CBT.

Take up meditation with the primary goal of observing the mind as attentively as you can. Don't expect instant understanding.
Camden Fisher
Cringe.
Leo Foster
Ah, psychology. The hardest science!

Perls' session is easily my favorite, and his authenticity and ability to engage with the hidden truth of the patient's feelings is inspiring. (Especially when compared to Ellis relatively sterile, methodological approach).
Julian Edwards
Bump, anyone got a Jung guide?
Jaxson Thompson
LSD Psychotherapy by Stanislav Grof
Liam Edwards
Read his Bollingen Collected Works. He gets older as they go on. You can see him move from Freud and beyond. If you want like a "greatest hits" I suggest Two Essays on Analytical Psychology, Psychological Types, Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, Aion, and Psychology & Alchemy. In that order. Maybe try Edward Edinger's Ego and Archetype if you want an example of how to think like Jung and what Jung thought (don't be a Jungian tho).
Jack Gray
And then, maybe, try Red Book. But it is a tricky work. Like Nietzsche's Will to Power. Published non-consensually. He never sought to be a prophet.
Blake Cox
Might as well recommend the psychedelic experience and prometheus rising.
Kevin Reyes
Dealing with subjectivity is harder than erasing it from the equation.
Henry Sullivan
Schizophrenia: Cognitive Theory, Research, and Therapy helped me out.
Aiden Ramirez
Don't even pretend your "science" is in any way more sophisticated than the LSD bro silliness.
Evan Perez
We can induce existential breakdown and breakthrough with subtle methods like words as opposed to crude chemicals. Surely that is worth more?
Aaron Hall
Archetypes and the collective unconscious

>not meditating
Landon Green
It's possible to experience the same effects as LSD through non chemically induced means, like meditation. Who's to say what is better? I think they're both equally worthless.

>not realizing westerners have their own superior meditative traditions
Christian Rogers
It's possible that these are the only sciences which can change one's life and meditation and therapy are far safer psychologically than psychedelics which can be like playing with fire for the neurodiverse.
Landon Lee
It's not though, you don't know anything about either of them do you
Levi Flores
like what? I mean meditation is meditation, nothing is superior to just breath concentration.
Ayden Gonzalez
Such as?
Justin Peterson
True. You cannot produce a psychedelic effect endogenously and either Ram Dass or the guru was lying when he said a vial didn't effect him cus he was so woke from yoga.
Western meditation aims at becoming a superior individual. Nothing like this cucked I'ma stop desiring bullshit.
Lection divina, centering prayer, ars memoria

the red book looks really interesting. I feel like I enjoy reading Jung more than using his books to actively better myself, so not at risk to attempt to fully develop my anima yet.
