But we're not very good for psychology or spirituality.” SoulWholeSpiritualSpiritSpiritualitySpeakLanguageWaterIssuesPsychologyVery GoodMythPsychologicalDistinctionDescriptionVocabularyEnglish LanguageSuperbMurky Water Author:Jean Houston
“ACT psychology is a psychology of the normal. A lot of the psychologies that are out there are built on the psychology of the abnormal. We have all these syndromal boxes that we can put people in and so forth. The actual evidence on syndromes is not very good. There's no specific biological marker for any of the things that you see talked about in the media. Even things like schizophrenia - there's no specific and sensitive biological markers for these things. There may be some abnormal processes involved, but vastly more of human suffering comes from normal processes that run away from us.” PeopleRunningSufferingPsychologyEvidenceVery GoodSensitiveRunning AwaySchizophreniaHuman Suffering Author:Steven C.

It makes a very good party.” PeopleSpiritualPartyBrainPsychologyDrinkTrainingIntelligentVery Good Author:Ann Shulgin

That's the whole idea of practicing and really working on being focused on what I'm doing and being committed to what I'm doing.
