I go through a journey of Carl Jung, Myers/Briggs, David Keirsey temperament theory, Human Design Ra Uru Hu, Quantum Human Design developed by Dr Karen Parker…. Ultimately any of these systems could help us get to a better collective consciousness right now if we cared more about understanding the collective than making the individual successful. Thank you for supporting my independent thought - how to support my work - My work is now driven entirely by donations or supporting my content creation Paypal Donations: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/drnaoiseoreillyPodcast channel: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/channel/purple-psychology/id6446495392Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/purplepsychologyiBooks: http://books.apple.com/us/book/id6744105194

We need accurate integral memories for peoples’ behaviours … we need journalists to show the web that has been formed and how it has been allowed to erode all the promises we made as a humanity after the 2nd world war… this will take time, focus and a clear sense of purpose …. Bob Geldof Sky News https://youtu.be/HzUtUUDpGX4?si=cWw0AiJDc0UCwL_i

*I recorded this before the 12th of July in Northern Ireland and those outside these lands may not know how separate a conversation bonfires with burning migrant boats are and the complexities of what they represent - what they most represent to me is that this is no time for a united Ireland or a Sinn Féin President. There is a lot of work to do to get their house in order to match the ideals of the European Equality mandate. To align with the values in the Republic of Ireland and all the work we have done. Though I have no doubt that these images will speak to the few who are being coerced into such views that I have spoken about in this podcast which makes it all the more important to share this podcast at this time. Thank you for supporting my independent thought - how to support my work - My work is now driven entirely by donations or supporting my content creation Paypal Donations: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/drnaoiseoreillyPodcast channel: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/channel/purple-psychology/id6446495392Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/purplepsychologyiBooks: http://books.apple.com/us/book/id6744105194Two high profile cases of our own failings are being used to drive a horrible a narrative here by a few people who feel abandoned in their own misery …. There has been such an imbalance in how white Ukrainians have been treated by comparison to other skin tones … and we should learn the positives in what happens when we make it possible for people to be fully legal and capable of starting a life here .. we have seen great integration with Ukrainians that should be available to everyone who has come to Ireland Not to mention the Irish are the biggest migrants in the world
