In The last couple of Videos, we discussed the Happiness-Teachings of Eckhart Tolle. (See: https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=V2aUXheBSt8)
These teachings are mainly about how with the absence of mind - there is no more experience of pain.
Which raises the questions...
Why is there pain in presence of the mind? Where is this pain first created? What if we were to get rid of the root of the pain vs escaping the mind?
We will learn that over time, we have bottled up all kinds of experience into our subconcious, and many of them we simply never dealt with. This "never dealing with it" is a form of resistance and thus basically the definition of any problem.
In day to day live, we might not even experience much of this resitance; However - as soon as the smallest things go wrong, these hidden memories and ideas might shoot up in an instant and bring with them great pain and suffering.
SO....more questions arise
How do we identify what triggers this suffering? How do we deal with it, once it pops up?
and ultimately... How do we get to the root and fix the issue as its cause, thus leading to healing our mind and finally becoming free of pain?
The 5 Step practical process that we engage in:
1) Experience some form of Pain 2) Embracing the Pain & Digging Up more of it from your Subconcious 3) Fully Experience the Emotions 4) Get To the Root-Cause: a) Find the Pattern behind the Triggers b) Connect the Triggers with the Emotions c) Asking Questions to get to the Root [such as: What is my ultmate fear? What am I most afraid of here? What am I ultimately escaping from? What is behind this? What triggered this?...] 5) Fully Let Go
In the second Part of the Video, I will give you a practical example of my very own deepest discoveries and how I managed to find out about them, so that you will hopefully understand the underlying principles of the 5-Step Process and are able to make use of it for your own good!
This sounds a whole lot like psychoanalysis. Which has two fundamental problems (besides being pure fantasy): 1. Finding the root stays a guess until the very end 2. It's assumed the problem just vanishes afterwards (it doesn't necessarily)
Also there really isn't any evidence for a subconscious the way you describe it. Call me a skeptic but most of what you're saying doesn't really have any solid groundwork.
I have tried these five steps for myself and they work very nicely; i like this your explanation;; thank you for sharing; appreciate it; I wished you had spoken more about the accepting part; its something i struggle with, even after knowing all the information about experiences from the past and long past; i see that you have worked very hard, i know what this means; the layers just keep coming and coming and coming; i don' t think you have arrived to accepting it; your journey is not quite still complete. My belief is that the source of the pattern you are describing lies in a past life. Chilhood was again more triggers, but not the source. I have noticed that your left leg moves a lot anxiously during this video. It might just be public speaking, but i don' t think so. In this regard i suggest you look into the micheal newton hypnosis method or line of work.
You might want to consider making your videos shorter than half an hour. Despite that these are actually good. Just a little too long

From switzerland so you must know something about it
I'm guessing you mean the root of the neurosis, like the traumatic experiences that made someone the way they are. which yes it takes a while but how does this make it any less legitimate than other types of psychology?

Yes that's what I meant. And yes, it actually is less legitimate than other types of psychology. Because there is simply no proof for it. That makes it a pseudoscience. Which doesn't mean it's necessarily wrong! It simply has no connection to being right or wrong. It's the same for jungian psychology and actually the whole depth psychology. You will find a very concise summary of the critisism on wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychoanalysis#Criticism (which applies to all types of depth psychology)
Now, I want to add, it's okay to believe in such things. But I wished that people would have a little basis for what they're claiming, especially in videos they send out to the world. That's what I was trying to say.
@pebble444: Awesome, glad to hear that! I will make a seperate video on acceptance at some point, because its a deep topic in itself. As mentioned before, I did not want to make the video any longer than it already was; And no, by no means is this where my journey ends! But it's a great step into the right direction - and already proved massive results for me.
As for my left leg: Haha, I don't think that this has anything to do with public speaking or anxiety. I feel 100% at ease at this point, speaking to the camera. I have some issues with ADHD tho, so habitually whenever I sit down I tend to touch stuff / move my arms/feet etc. more than most people do ;P
@imgbaby: Thanks man, noted! I was actually aiming for a shorter video; I literally shot the 2nd part about 30 times trying to make it shorter. However, there was just so much stuff that I wanted to mention here, that I said "okay fine, this is a deep topic after all."
