Someone confided in me recently and asked, “Dr, I’m going to ask you a totally vulnerable question, how do you deal with anxieties if you have them?”

I replied that there are plenty of herbs & supplements that can be helpful, but one thing I find most helpful is getting well acquainted with your breath. Controlled breathing is one of the most powerful anxiety reducers out there and the best part is…it’s FREE!

Chinese TikTokers SCHOOL Trump Supporters About Their OWN Country: “You Guys are Really Dumb”

youtube.com/watch?v=uf_GCOSZ2b

Americans let oligarchs “rob” them and thank them for doing it. In this video we’ll react to the dunkfest and explain how sad it is that Americans don’t already know the things these Chinese TikTokers are trying to teach them.

This doesn’t mean ignoring injustice or denying emotions. It means seeing through conditioning & responding from #awareness, not preference. A non-discriminating mind can act with great compassion because it sees beyond self-interest. In #ZenBuddhism, clarity doesn’t avoid the world — it sees it truly. In each step, word, or breath, this #mind expresses itself. Nothing is rejected, nothing held. In that #freedom, everything belongs. (5/5)

'Perceived Shared Understanding Between Humans and #ArtificialIntelligence: Development and Validation of a Self-Report Scale' - an article from the American Psychological Association (APA) in ' #Technology, #Mind, and #Behavior ' on #ScienceOpen: scienceopen.com/document?vid=f

ScienceOpenPerceived Shared Understanding Between Humans and Artificial Intelligence: Development and Validation of a Self-Report Scale<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d11201157e170">The perception of shared understanding between individuals is key to constructive meaning-making, effective collaboration, and satisfying interaction outcomes. Recent scholarship indicates this operation extends to human–artificial intelligence interactions such that a validated instrument to capture humans’ perceived shared understanding (PSU) with artificial intelligence is key to advancing work in that domain. Building on extant exploratory work, this project develops and initially validates a PSU scale in two studies. Participants shared past large-language model conversations and then reflected on them to respond to a pool of candidate scale items. Exploratory factor analysis yielded a single-factor, eight-item solution interpreted to represent a <i>social-semantic</i> construal of the artificial intelligence’s shared understanding—that is, that they are sharing meaning with someone. The scale demonstrates significant associations with theoretically relevant measures; factor structure and convergent validity are replicated in a separate sample. This novel instrument points to a convergence of sociality and meaning in PSU and serves as a springboard for future research and practical applications. </p>

When someone fears #LGBTQI+ people, they’re not seeing #reality clearly. They’re clinging to rigid concepts, often out of fear of their own unexamined #mind. #Zen asks: who is this “I” that is afraid? Where is it? When we look, it disappears like mist. There’s no fixed self to defend, no identity to cling to, no purity to preserve. (2/3)

From my #ZenBuddhist perspective, fear, repression, & hatred all arise from attachment to illusion: the illusion of fixed identity, of duality, of “right” versus “wrong,” of “normal” versus “abnormal.” These are #mental constructions that bind the #mind like chains. The true #nature of things — suchness — is beyond categories. #LGBTQI+ identity isn’t deviant; it simply is. Like wind, rock, wave, or tree. (1/3)
