Intuition and TA

•  The Origins of TA : Intuition and ego-states

(Berne’s papers 1949-1962 Paul McCormic ed.)

•  TA concepts as crystallizations of Berne’s (and others) intuitions

•  focussed on psychotherapy à motivations, biography, limiting life plans, enacting drama (early definition BERNE script = transference drama)

6

Intuição e AT

•  As origens da AT: intuição e estados de ego

(Artigos de Berne 1949-1962 Paul McCormic ed.)

•  Conceitos de AT como cristalização das intuições de Berne (e outros)

•  Focado em psicoterapia à motivações, biografia, limitação dos planos de vida, atuação do drama (definição BERNE script = drama transferência)

7

Definition of intuition

•  Berne, Eric 1949 (based on Aristotle)

“the way we know something without knowing how we know, and often without knowing in words, what we know”,

but we act as if we knew.

8

Definição de Intuição

•  Berne, Eric 1949 (baseado em Aristóteles)

“a forma como sabemos algo sem saber como sabemos, e frequentemente sem saber em palavras, o que sabemos”, mas agimos como se soubéssemos.

Evolutionary function of intuition

Imagine an ancient human, drinking at a spring, is confronted with a wolf:

Is it hungry, strong, aggressive etc? Am I strong, energetic? How far is the next tree? Is it easy to be climbed quickly? Would running or freezing attract the wolf? etc.

There is no chance to compute all this rationally, but by intuition, which leads directly to action.

10

Função Evolucionária da Intuição

Imagine um humano antigo, bebendo em uma fonte, é confrontado com um lobo:

Ele está faminto, forte, agressivo, etc.? Eu sou forte, enérgico? Quão longe está a próxima arvore? É fácil escalá-la rapidamente? Será que correr ou ficar parado atrairia o lobo? Etc.

Não há qualquer chance de computar tudo isto racionalmente, só por intuição, que leva diretamente a ação.

11

Evolution of intuition

Is intuition per se selfish? No! Modern science: "Evolution is cooperation!" But person has to be free to use intuition for others. (No taboos or undetected desires!)

Is it possible to only refer to others? No!

It is ok to tell and live your own story, but in a way also useful to others

12

Evolução da intuição

É a intuição, por si só egoísta? Não! Ciência moderna: “Evolução é cooperação!”

Mas a pessoa deve ser livre para usar a intuição para os outros. (Sem tabus ou desejos não detectados!)

É possível que só se refira aos outros? Não!

É ok contar e viver sua própria história, mas de uma forma útil também para outros

13

Broader perspectives

•  Intuition is judgement about reality (Schmid1991). •  Intuition can be qualified or unqualified, can lead

or mislead.

•  Professional intuition must be trained and must become focussed according to what sphere is relevant and for what professional purposes it is needed.

•  Different professionals should have different masteries in intuition, because they have different spheres of reality to deal with, different roles and different responsibilities.

14

Perspectivas mais amplas

•  Intuição é um julgamento da realidade (Schmid1991). •  Intuição pode ser qualificada ou não qualificada, pode

conduzir ou enganar.

•  Intuição profissional deve ser treinada e deve tornar-se focada de acordo com qual esfera seja relevante e quais propósitos profissionais sejam necessários

•  Diferentes profissionais deve ter diferentes habilidades na intuição, uma vez que tem que lidar com diferentes esferas de realidade, diferentes papeis e diferentes responsabilidades.

15

Intuition of the Possible

"  BERNE's intuitions meant perceptions of represented archaic realities.

"   JUNG's intuition meant also the anticipation of possible realities: What could be real instead of what is real already?

= perception of the potential. "   “Realize” means: perceive the possibility

and help to make it real.

16

Intuição do Possível

"  A intuição de BERNE significava percepções das realidades arcaicas representadas

"  A intuição de JUNG significava também a antecipação de possíveis realidades: o que poderia ser real ao invés do que e real?

= percepção do potencial "   “Perceber” significa: perceber a possibilidade

e ajudar a torná-la real.

Berne’s limitations to intuition

1.   Taboos = not being allowed to deal with certain aspects of reality

2.   Desires and fears = seduced or blocked or driven by hidden motivations, we do not dare face or admit.

20

Limitações da intuição segundo Berne

1.   Tabus = não sendo permitido lidar com alguns aspectos da realidade

2.   Desejos e medos = seduzido ou bloqueado ou impulsionado por motivações ocultas, que não se atrevem a encarar ou admitir.

21

More limitations (B. Schmid)

3. Fixations in habits (cultural, professional and organizational)

4. Lack of competence and knowledge

5. Blocking experimental flow (initially not knowing which models and approaches to use)

6. Lack of tuning into each other's spirit

7. Lack of inspiring ideas and creative designs for future realities

22

Mais limitações (B. Schmid)

3. Fixações em hábitos (cultural, profissional e organizacional)

4. Falta de competência e conhecimento

5. Bloqueio do fluxo experimental (inicialmente sem saber quais os modelos e abordagens usar)

6. Falta de sintonia com os espiritos dos outros

7. Falta de idéias inspiradoras e desenhos criativos para realidades futuras

23

Intuition Science

Berne: Scientific methods, which offer more security, and intuition,

which opens up more options, are the

mutual basis for creative action.

24

Intuição Ciência

Berne: Métodos científicos, que oferecem mais segurança, e intuição,

que abre mais possibilidades, são

bases mutuas para a ação criativa.


Background images


Imagens de fundo

Dialogue model of communication

29

•  nature of the individual •  talents and ambitions •  equipment and requests from family •  attitudes to life and lifestyles of the milieu

in which one was brought up •  formative experiences, often represented

by key events and inner images

Lifeplans are influenced by:

30

•  natureza do individuo •  talentos e ambicoes •  equipamentos e solicitacoes familiares •  atitudes para com a vida e estilos de vida

do meio em que se foi criado •  experiências de formação, muitas vezes

representado por eventos-chave e imagens internas

Planos de vida sao influenciados por:

31

Not primarily scripts, but creative lifeplans e.g. Fanita English’s lifeplan development: Compare stories

1.  childhood 2.  adolescence 3.  presence

Fanita: "Berne would have developed in the

Jungian direction."

Lifeplans and stories

32

Não primariamente scripts, mas planos de vida criativos

e.g. Fanita English’s desenvolvimento do plano de vida:

Comparar historias

1.  infancia 2.  adolescenci 3.  presente

Fanita: "Berne teria se desenvolvido na

direcao Jungiana."

Planos de vida e historias

33

Humans are narrative beings. Life is myth, is telling your story.

People are always oriented to what they want to become, telling you somehow, who they want to be or are going to become

Empathy for the possible: intuition for the possible future of the other

Life is meaning

34

Humanos são seres narrativos. Viver é mito, é contar a sua historia.

As pessoas são sempre orientadas aquilo que querem se tornar, dizendo de alguma forma, quem eles querem ser ou vão ser tornar.

Empatia para o possível: Intuição para o possível futuro do outro

Viver e significar

35

Q: "When you were young, what were your images of what you would do some day, professionally?" A: Train conductor! Q: "What images/scenes are related with this occupation in your mind?" A: 1. "Me and my engine - nobody knows it as I do!"

2. "My colleague and I - two comrades travel around the world!" 3. "So many people, who trust me - I shall guarantee them a safe trip!" 4. "Oriental Express - Many foreign countries. Great Uniform! I personally welcome all VIPs.”

Orientation in life illustrated by inner images: e.g. Train conductor

36

People "adopt"/filter images from their life or from stories, which represent experiences, self-perception or tendencies of the soul.

By exploring those images and mirroring in

dialogue with others, we get a sense of the personality, the myths and lifestyles, that the soul is interested in and ingredients of life situations, which fit.

Meaningful background images

37

1.  For understanding and creating meaningful professional situations and one's professional career

2. Understanding one's perception of organizational developments and matching those with one's own development

3. Monitoring, matching and dialoguing on that

Meaningful background images for profession and organization

38

1.  Me past/ Me present/ Me future 2.  Org past/Org present/Org future

Exercise: images referring to matching individual and organization

Me

Organization

39

1.  Humans are meaning-oriented and mythical! 2. You can touch the essence of people without

intimate information! 3. Reveals background drifts in processes and

relationships. 4. Very effective in connecting on many levels. 5. Permits relating to these spheres in a

professional world.

Why work with background images?


Dreams, guided imagery, metaphors and storytelling

41

Circus

42

•  are exempt from the laws of the real world, •  are surreal in character, •  open up a multi-layered field of meaning and

structure •  Professionals realize that they can create stories and metaphors much better and more usefully than they expect. •  This means using traditional ways of teaching. •  Indirect suggestions activate creative searches and solutions.

Dreams, metaphors and storytelling

43

the way the dreamer deals with metaphorical occurrences

For example: for the way he deals with experiences and dialogues in other contexts.

à  dialogue using dreams, imagery and stories as modelling for creative dialogue and for building up a “permeable” creative, sensible communication culture

Dealing with dreaming, guided imagery or storytelling as example for dealing with creative realities

44

Not dream interpretation in the first place, but dealing with dream experiences and contexts

and creative dialogues. i.e. exploration and visualization of

1.   what is going on in the dream and 2.   what is going on round about the dream, as

well as 3.   the meanings the dreamer gives his dream

and 4.   How it resonates in encounters with others.

Creative dialogues around dreaming

45

•  accepted mixture of the dreamer's world of experience and the dialogue partners' worlds of association,

•  creative experimentation with dream orchestration and also alternative orchestrations, •  unbiased dialog as offers of possible meanings

without resorting to any kind of expert authority, •  experimenting with context references =

possible connections between elements of the dream and other life stages.
