WISDOM BODY

WAKING THE WISDOM BODY


HOW? WHAT? WHY?

Lesson 1: WALK SLOWLY (as though you are walking in the water of a swimming pool. Fear speeds the body up, and so does stress (think victims of meth addiction). people notice. Does that matter? Indeed. Try it and discover for yourself. Not up to anyone to tell you what to do, although sometimes the relaying of knowledge is all we have to share.

Lesson 2: COMPOSURE

  1. To the left of composure is collapse (victim/weakness behaviour, caving to pressure
  2. To the right is posturing

Lesson 3: SHARING DATA/INFORMATION/ANYTHING VERBAL

  1. Authority: see lesson 2, no posturing, know what you know, authority within self
  2. Comfort: you can be provided with all the skill-learning/teaching but if you are not comfortable delivering this information to others you will be disadvantaged
  3. Skill: see a and b. Have it before you profess to have it.
  4. More skill: if what you know is not apparent in a and b. the skill is irrelevant when discussing

Lesson 4: AUTHORITY: is 5 things:

  1. Confidence
  2. Discipline
  3. Leadership
  4. Gratitude
  5. Enjoyment

If you have to persuade someone you lack authority.

Faking confidence leaks out

Gratitude may seem odd here but it is in genuine kindness to those who help you that authority is established as non-enforceable, rather it is respected. The respect MUST be mutual.

Establishing BASE authority is achieved through:

  1. appearance
  2. environment
  3. connection
  4. intent

People DO look for outward signs of authority so however you wear it, wear it well.

Authority figures sit up straight, more because of ‘world-view’ than for postural reasons

This is associated, to a small degree, with COGNITIVE BEHAVIOUR[1]/ COERCION

MAMMALIAN BRAIN

It is necessary, upon awareness of such things as left/right brain, limbic brain, amygdala, prefrontal cortex, to develop a relationship with your mammalian brain.

No words or affirmations are going to affect it. Your mammalian brain works on observation, practice, reward. It is simple. We learn best when we train ourselves like we train a hound. Visual cues are important (just as they are significant in mnemonics or memory training: images to represent specifics)

Choose the app that can show you how you will age, download the image and put it everywhere to trigger your changes to food and behaviour. The knowledge of a downhill existence will assist you to choose what you will eat, wear, spend money on to change the eventual image, over, say 6 months to a year. If you want.

50% of what triggers dopamine (feel good hormone) is self-indulgence: alcohol, certain medications (illicit or otherwise) shopping, porn, spending, getting hair done, receiving invitations, getting stuff in the mail etc. We have to be very honest with self to get either past this or else not let it rule us.

Every successful person (that doesn’t necessarily mean success in the traditional sense of affluence with stuff) has a clearly understood dopamine map: GET DOPAMINE FROM ‘GOOD’ SOURCES, NOT MEANINGLESS ONES.

DISCIPLINE

Discipline is confidence. Look around yourself next time you are in a public place (look around the room here). You’ll intuitively pick up the confident, disciplined, authoritied person without any thought going into it. It is emitted like a wave form.

EYE CONTACT

In a one-on-one conversation take note of blinking:

  1. The person who blinks heaps is anxious (unless they have something in their eye)
  2. The calm person blinks occasionally or hardly at all is confident
  3. The person who does not blink sees you as PREY, almost not blinking, if at all
  1. Clusters of BEHAVIOURS

are of significance, not the single event behaviour like scratching the nose or crossing arms. These are not examples of deceit or defensiveness.

  • The ‘MASTER’ communicator

will speak to the person in front of them to understand what kind of person this is.

To understand this one needs to understand what is the need of the other person/who are they:

  1. SIGNIFICANCE: (remarking on the importance/significance of what a person is doing in life, acknowledge that they are of significance. Watching for the nod of agreement or appropriate comfort with the validation)
  2. Acceptance: people generally require a modicum of acceptance relative to their life’s experience/work/ness.
  3. APPROVAL: in te case of the person who requires approval they/you will speak in inclusive terms: we, our, us rather that I, mine/me
  4. INTELLIGENCE: acknowledgment of their perspective, they will cite their academic or other credentials or will quote from famous or recognisable authorities to get the recognition they require
  5. PITY: the pity person desires recognition of suffering and acknowledgment that they survived. They often want reassurance when presenting a proposal, oh, how well you survived that, or, no, you are worthy, look what you have achieved etc
  6. STRENGTH/POWER: Think Trump. The I have control; I have power over other people, look what I have done/can do. This is often the stance of dictatorial behaviour, can be the partner in a relationship of any kind or an adversary seeking to prove a point

ELICITATION

PART 1—Eliciting information from a person, well, is through NOT asking questions.

Example: You must have had a holiday; you look so healthy.

The person to whom you speak will do one of two things: they will expand on a yes, or they will correct you, therefore providing you with information.

You can continue making sentences (not questions) based on the other’s responses. The moment you ask a question you allow for suspicion or defensiveness. This is known as cognitive dissonance.

PART 2—COGNITIVE DISSONANCE

Cognitive dissonance is a form of weaponised brainwashing. People like Trump do it. Most politicians do it. So do advertisers (by telling you how you would be happier or prettier, or cleverer… beware flattery) educational facilities, bureaucracy, family, peer groups, clergy and cults all do it. They all use the technique of trying to convince you that they are in collusion with you and know exactly what is required for you to be more in control, cooler, less thirsty, will save time, will be better somehow, all that. They coerce you into agreeing to what is better than, lesser than, different to, or who and what is best avoided or bought.

PART 3—NOVELTY

Manipulation depends on it. It is most usually the case when a bomb explodes (for the first time) that people will run in the direction of the blast to know what has happened. The same occurs with road accidents. The same with screaming or unexpected noise. Just the unexpected.

We are a species that is curious regarding anything that is out of the ordinary. If we walk the same track from the village to the river and back again, every day, and there is an unrecognisable object to one side of the track, people will notice and usually will want to know what it is. This can have any one of many repercussions.

We are a tribal and emotional animal. Novelty would be the introduction to indigenous, first-contact tribal elders of the stainless steel pot, or the rifle. We are similar if someone using coercive control seduces us with the novelty of ANYTHING. Do we have a choice to look/participate? Often that depends on a peer group or the behaviour of a mob.

FINALLY

Knowing all these tricks and tips allows you freedom. This is called A LEVEL OF INSIGHT. Once you are aware of any of the above you will not lose that awareness and can utilise both life-altering and life-saving techniques.
