  3. I stumbled across #TheApothecaryDiaries, an impressive #anime #series about a healer and palace intrigues. It seems impossible to get by these days without #bigeyes and silliness, but the narrative and themes come across mostly as surprisingly "mature", exciting & #humanistic. #manga #comicsky #TV

  4. What Is #Humanistic #Education?

    #Humanisticeducation is a transformative #educational approach rooted in the #philosophy and #psychology of #humanism. At its heart lies a deep respect for #humandignity and the belief that every #child possesses unlimited potential — emotionally, mentally, physically, socially and spiritually. It is an approach grounded in reason, #conscious awareness and the thoughtful #development of the mind.

  5. The cynical #demagogues who are conquering one country after another can only be so successful because our #culture is in retreat. We have replaced our #humanistic #ideals with money and are increasingly surrendering our inner world to the #economy and the #entertainment industry, wasting our time and energy on #trivialities.

  6. We do need tools to share to help people the path back onto the #openweb

    The struggle to grow the #Fediverse and this #openweb reboot has never been about technology alone - it's always been about narrative, framing, and belonging. If we want people to step away from the toxic silos of the #closedweb and #dotdons to step into something better, we need more than protocols and servers - we need invitations. That’s why it's good to see the redesigned onboarding experience at Fedidb.com/welcome. I had a quick look at it, and it seems to be a "native" practical […]

  7. Excerpted from Contemporary #Humanistic #Judaism: #Beliefs, #Values, Practices
    by Adam Chalom and Jodi Kornfeld

    "Sometimes ideological #secularists—particularly early twentieth-century #Zionists working for a #secular, Hebrew-speaking #Jewish state and socialists creating new expressions of secular #Jewishness in #Yiddish—also adapted traditional Jewish forms to their #political agendas."

  8. Cause information and knowledge are growing exponentially, #schools try to cram facts into the minds of students. The result is that there is less and less room for #understanding, for reflection on the world and the #meaning of life, for an understanding of #nature and #society, for #humanistic #values, for ethics...
    Doing so, we are destroying our #culture and #civilization, because culture is nourished by understanding and wisdom, and civilization without understanding becomes uncontrollable.

  9. Also, I had an epiphany. Therapy has inherent value even in shitty situations. At the very least, counselling can* grant you an example template of a (one-sided) healthy relationship.
    It's unfair to have to wait or pay for it.
    Regardless of what factors facilitate that experience, still, knowing what that COULD look like is constructive.

    * [ I say "can" because some individuals should not be in mental health professions, others could be if they have better working conditions, and yet more can always have an off day -- or you two just might not mesh as people. It happens. ]

    e.g. my therapist can't make my doctor stop being a shit, but knowing they believe me when I say it stresses me out is indispensable.
    You need a handler for the spy-craft of existing while mistreated.
    Someone must remind you that imagination for restructuring society is boundless.

    We CAN meet everyone's needs if and only if we first consider it possible.

  12. “The #humanistic approach to psychology is regarded as a large contributor to #coaching #psychology. Both humanistic and coaching psychology share the common view of the human as self-actualizing. That is, whenever given the opportunity, humans will seize the capacity to improve themselves.”

    Very thoughtful response to this query in The Bintel Brief (advice column from #TheForward).

    My favorite part is this quote, "“I do think you can find your place in Jewish community, but you might not find everything you’re looking for in one community,"

    This has definitely been my experience. I would be very unhappy if I was forced to choose one Jewish Community to belong to exclusively. I need my #humanistic #havurah for fellowship, inspiration, and intellectual engagement with fellow non-theists, but I also need my local brick and mortar #Reform synagogue for the experience of being part of a large pluralistic community, as well as all of the in-person opportunities for community engagement (and of course all of the programming they provide for my son).

    And... I also need my non-Jewish spiritual community, my lovely quirky progressive #Mennonite church where I remain an associate member. I need to be in a space sometimes where I can be unapologetic about prioritizing #peace above all other values.

  16. I'm very excited about the next round of short courses from the #Unyeshiva (the school ran by the same folks behind the #JudaismUnbound podcast), but especially the class by #Humanistic rabbi Tzemah Yoreh of the City Congregation for #HumanisticJudaism in #NYC!

    zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0vd

    Celebrate Lag Ba'Omer with us in a unique and spiritually enriching way. This special day marks the 33rd step in the Omer's 49-day journey, resonating with the theme of Hod within Hod - the essence of humility and splendor.

    What to Bring: We invite you to participate actively by bringing a hard-boiled egg, marker pen, and candles. The eggs will serve as vessels for your personal wishes , symbolizing potential and new beginnings. The candles will represent the light of wisdom and revelation, honouring the teachings of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, whose insights have helped to illuminate our paths through Judaism.

    Obviously you are correct.

    My issue is with the word "should". You can't "should" things into existence. The system deliberately created the current set of issues, such as burning the planet.

    "Not for profit" and "charity" are tax statuses. No stock ownership, so they give themselves raises.

    "The Path", I believe, is like Carl Rogers created for therapy: model the way things "would" be (if all things were equal) as a complex structure. As in OO engineering.
