INTELLIGENCE DE SOI(Intelligence of Self)

• The development keys

2
An approach

• in the framework of Jungian thinking
• closely related to Voice Dialogue
• integrating the typological approach
• and a few other methods

3
Outline

• The laws of the psyche a formalization
• The elements of the psyche
• the adaptation strategies
• the cognitive processes
• description
• dynamic
• interactions between strategies and processes
• Practice

4
THE LAWS OF THE PSYCHE
5
The starting point

• To exist, one must differentiate oneself
• Energy comes from the difference in polarity

6
The entropic lawsor the natural slope
7
Law of polarization

• One does not start from both sides at the same
  time
• One pole becomes the "favorite"

8
Law of inflation

• The pole that functions wells takes up more and
  more room
• The automatic pilot

9
Law of projection

• The dominant pole is righteous
• It judges the opposite pole

10
The neguentropic principles conscious
development
11
Naming

• Identifying the differences
• To go from "pre" to "trans"

12
De-identifying or unhooking

• Distancing oneself from the automatic pilot
• Which no longer takes itself for the ego

13
Reclaiming

• Withdrawal from the projection
• The speck and the beam!
• End of judgments

14
THE ELEMENTS OF THE PSYCHE
15
The adaptation strategies
16

• The way we adapt to the demands of the
  environment
• Develop very early
• Many of them!
• A few typical examples

17
The inner child

• The inner child is the most vulnerable part of
  oneself, the most intimate and the most
  sensitive. It is very close to the soul. It needs
  an environment in which it feels safe so that it
  can manifest itself.
• Without an inner child, there is no spiritual
  life, no intimate relationship with others

18
The protector

• The protector puts itself in place to protect the
  child. It is the armor that protects it from
  difficulties and defends it against wounds. It
  knows the rules of the social game and allows the
  person to adopt behaviors appropriate to the
  environment.
• Without the protector, the child is quickly
  crushed.

19
The enactor of rules

• The enactor of rules, often composed of several
  Selves, is the inner parliament that states the
  laws and rules to be followed. It points out good
  and evil, the principles that govern moral life.
  It can have different connotations according to
  whether it bears the rules of Thinking or
  Feeling.
• Without the enactor, there is no life possible in
  society.

20
The perfectionist

• The perfectionist has very strict success
  criteria. Whoever has said thats enough is
  already dead could be one of its mottos. It
  drives us to always do better and to push back
  the limits.
• Without the perfectionist there is no major
  success, in art, science or any other field.

21
The critic

• It is the policeman who blows the whistle for
  violations of the law. The critic denounces
  breaches, faults, imperfections or inadequacies.
  It is the enforcer for the enactor of rules.
• Without the cricket perched on Pinocchios
  shoulder, there is no conscience.

22
The Patriarch/The Matriarch

• These are the culturally inherited voices that
  indicate mens and womens social roles
• the patriarch is the male authority figure that
  gives women their place in society,
• the matriarch is the female authority figure
  that gives men their place in society.
• Without them, the social structure would lack
  stability.

23
The caregiver

• The one that tries to be a good parent, who takes
  care of its children - and also the inner child.
  The caregiver tends to spontaneously help others,
  even if they are no longer children, with the
  same kindness.
• Without the caregiver, children could not or
  barely survive charitable organizations would
  undoubtedly not exist.

24
The worker

• The worker has a sense of responsibility and of
  tasks to be accomplished. It leads to being a
  good professional who can be counted on.
• Without the worker, academic or professional
  success is difficult.

• The order of the functions is expressed through
  an evolution throughout life

36
Pole opposite the auxiliary Opposite
orientation Adulthood

• First
• Chronology
• Preference
• Competency

Pole opposite the dominant Opposite
orientation Mid-life Source of difficulties and
growth potential

• Dominant balance
• Nature of function
• Orientation
• Adolescence

37
Interactions between strategies and cognitive
processes
38

• Processes and strategies interact
• Therefore
• a strategy can be identified with a process cf.
  description above
• the same strategy can have different versions
  depending on the processes available
• processes can be combined to give rise to the
  Automatic Pilot

PRACTICE
42
A few ways to practice

• An aid for awareness-raising of functioning
• A base map
• A compass for development
• A way to access the zone of opposite polarities
• An aid for Bonding Patterns
