“I want people to feel comfortable in their own mind.” – Hannah McPherson
I wanted to explain what I was feeling; it came so deeply. I thought of how science had not yet come across a way to measure the subjective experience, so it doesn’t get talked about nearly as much.
But what if we found a way?
I want to teach an ‘Inner Literacy’ course, which would be me learning alongside others.
This course would outline and help me and the fellow students identify their internal world and how it signals our thoughts.
This is not a therapy, this is not a crisis center, this is not forced participation in a group setting. ‘Inner Literacy’ is designed for those who want to get to know their own inner voice better. It is for people who want to find a system to learn about their internal self.
How does it work?
We notice a feeling, name a feeling, then pause to reflect on it, we weigh the possibility of action/reaction, and then we make an informed decision on how to proceed or integrate the feeling.
Will there be more to come on this?
Yes, I just want to give a light introduction to the topic. A lot of my work currently revolves around this subjective experience course framework, so I just want to give a definition. If you see a reference and are curious, I’d be open to discussion and discourse about the idea.
