The Last Sapien | QA to our soul

QA to our Soul | As proud dad I am - I am going to strictly focus on life happenings without bragging about family, though with the three true gems we have I feel sometimes like that guy that is walking with a suitcase full of money sweating like in a rain forest trip being afraid that people around will snap it from his hands. Well, I will spare you the description of sweat stains and the rest.

The only reason I bring kids to the conversation is the fact that one of my kids is a psychology graduate and the other is enrolling to study psychology, where she is now performing software QA.

This just triggered this insight of mine to the fact that our body - that was programmed long time ago - has never gone through QA , well to an extent - it was more like the strongest survives and makes it to breed the next generations - not so much how we like the products on the shelves in our grocery store - or the applications we use on our smart devices.

In modern age when things go wrong for us we try to find remedies to overcome them - these are like software patches. But what about our super computer - our decision making core - when this goes wrong - there is a need to run some QA through it and find what in the chain of events called life has created the mess so a better fix could be provided to it.

Psychology has few philosophies - the traditional analysis https://www.verywellmind.com/freudian-theory-2795845, the next gen lead by Jung https://www.simplypsychology.org/carl-jung.html and CBT practiced by Yalom and others http://phenomenologicalpsychology.com/2009/12/review-of-yalom-theory-and-practice-of-group-psychotherapy/

Each method has its advantages and disadvantages where at the end of the day - if you land yourself a good therapist the QA session will be efficient and you can reprogram your mind faster towards emotional freedom.

We need to have a mechanism like in an iron's self cleaning, or the adjustments you do to your mobile for better orientation - to have something that will re-calibrate our brain.

Unlike any software - we cannot re-boot our brain - but we can apply learning and experiences that will allow it to better cope with new situations without the need to be eaten by a predator. We need to find means to adjust to the ever-changing landscape that modern life lays for us. We also need t

o find the moments to calm our thoughts down and let our biggest muscle ( AKA Brain . . .) rest. Hope you find yours.
