mh,sports psychology and safe spaces 

i'm trying not to dismiss it out of hand, because he's trying to get a group of ppl paralysed by their fear and equip them to operate in a hostile world, but the emphasis of having complete responsibiliy for how things affect us seems set up to make us blind to structural obstacles.

mh,sports psychology and safe spaces 

The primary therapist in my partial hospitalization program uses a sports psychology approach to our group therapy.

it's almost the opposite of what we try to do with safe spaces. like it emphasizes dealing with fear responses by treating all your experiences as value free, and positing that they only have the meaning you give them.

It leans heavily on most events producing perceived rather than actual threats.

it might be true in sports, but in life?

Anyone missing LiveJournal who'd love to recapture that with more modern code should really check out Dreamwidth. It's a good project run by good people and doesn't have all the BS baggage that LJ does these days.
