Understanding the You

Examine Self Defense Mechanisms, triggers, defaults, and what you may be operating from.

THE PROGRAM

What you experience as “you” is an architecture.

This program introduces the LFS framework for examining how trauma, Self Defense Mechanisms, triggers, and defaults may influence thoughts, feelings, behavior, perception, and identity.

Trauma

Examine the LFS framework for how unfamiliar or impactful experiences may be interpreted and managed.

Self Defense Mechanisms

Identify protective mechanisms that may influence how you respond to internal and external stimuli.

Triggers

Examine what activates established responses and why certain situations may carry disproportionate influence.

Defaults

Recognize responses that may operate automatically before conscious examination occurs.

LFS PERSPECTIVE

Understanding is not an excuse.

Knowing what may be influencing you can explain a response without exempting you from responsibility for what you do with that understanding.

WHAT YOU WILL EXAMINE

What this program is designed to help you develop.

Identify Influences

Develop language for examining what may be operating beneath a reaction or pattern.

Separate Self From Pattern

Begin distinguishing between what is occurring within you and what you consciously determine is true of you.

Increase Clarity

Use understanding as information for more conscious decisions.
