@ivankiss Also giving yourself permission to be childlike can do wonders for your spiritual and developmental path. Practicing non-judgement, playfulness, spontaneity, feeling safe and loved.... It can be easier to set the mood of you being a child if someone is a mother or father figure in a roleplay.

In some cases it's a way to release resistance. To approach the topic of trauma where many people feel safe to do so. It can remove issues around parental control and abuse by associating it with something positive and pleasurable.

My Dad is an extreme 'asshole'. In my experience if you cant pick up machievellian traits as self defense (just say you have disability) there's a lot of positive karma with applying gentleness and selflessness to an extremely selfish individual. That's if your sanity can manage it. Otherwise if you can, more power to you.

@Shin idk. Someone please tell me. He's an emotional cheater with a huge ego who goes around throwing low blows. 9/10? Please. /end of rant

Haha. Gold. A vase to the head works well too.

@Shin haha it's so true

Thank you for creating this! ^.^ Feels like someone is listening.

The animal realm (non intellectual) could be thought of as feminine compared to the masculine humanity. Symbols and riddles would go over their head but they have natural intuition and spirituality that humans wish to integrate.

They included gentleness and empathy in the equation of this profound insight generation, I presume? There are many aspects to right brain/ yin.

Of course you'd up the quality, like I already do on the forum. To put too many restrictions though will take away from the right brained/yin presence on the forum.

I adore this forum but I'm not particularly the teacher or intellectual kind. I feel relegated to the journaling section, which I love don't get me wrong, for self development. It would be cool if there was a place where I could be my vulnerable, emotional, self exploring non intellectual self (under moderation of course) without feeling uncomfortable or isolated.

Good point

In terms of the subforum, It wouldn't take much effort. There are plenty of people who would be happy to moderate and keep it running. A spacet for all things stage green (and the feminine side of the spiral specifically). Aren't we trying to help everyone up to green from orange anyway? Not yellow to turquoise. Orange to green. Why not have a space dedicated to it?

Agree with this idea. Forum needs more integration of Stage green and the feminine side of the spiral. What better way than a literal space dedicated alone to it?

@bejapuskas maybe only a temporary restriction for a few days/a week? He is going through a rough patch I think. His temperament is usually softer. He lightens up the whole place normally.

I don't know either. Ask Leo maybe.

@Jacob Morres my guess is I don't think it's in line with his values.

@bejapuskas Thank you.

@Shin lmao. I don't think we are making any progress.

To clarify further. I would rather an area as I would have my blind spots covered. It would be a give and take relationship so less burn out. I would enjoy adding to a space that would encourage prevention in its presence and atmosphere alone.

I think you'd be surprised @Leo Gura just how much users would step up you to the plate if we only had our own little area to do so. Tasking a few people would be far less efficient compared to what could grow if you would just give it a chance. The feminine in me would love to nurture and heal but I would rather do it in an area dedicated to that.

@Leo Gura What do you think?

I'm genuinely surprised there isn't already a sub forum giving space to the feminine. For a forum that prioritizes consciousness.

Yeah. A sub forum to give space for the feminine. A cross between the journaling section and serious emotional issues. To not push the feminine too far out into her her little private space in the journaling section. We want to draw 'her' out. But not to pathologize her expression as the serious emotional issues sub forum can. In terms of the subforum's themes: Healing paths, self love, the feminine, feminine compassion, shadow work, emotional expression, integration work, energy work, gratitude.

This community is mind orientated, intp. It will take a lot for a thinker to integrate their feeling side. Thinkers like @Forestluv and jung are exceptional people (true turquoise).
