Attunement

Attunement Licensed therapist, husband, brother, son. Helping Millennials retrain their attention. "Feeling is freedom" That was me too, and it was TONS of my clients.

Are you dealing with mental health issues but unhappy with the recommended “treatment” options? Trying talk therapy, dabbling with medication, or reading self-help books in the hopes of knowing yourself better, feeling in control and confident? We all thought that traditional therapy and psychiatry were our only options. But those things only go so far…

The way we do things is different:

❌We don

’t rely on diagnosing or labeling something as wrong with you
❌We don’t believe talking is the only way to solve things
❌And we certainly don’t think the use of psychedelics is wrong or reckless

I am also sick of the word “regulation.”

It sounds so authoritative. Like a law or regulation passed down from on high.

We demand our nervous systems stay “regulated” and my concern is that we confuse regulation with passivity, docileness, and disconnection.

For sure there are nervous system states that don’t match the present moment, instead, they match a previous moment.

And the system is just predicting what it thinks it needs to do to stay safe.

So I’ll say it again. There are no “bad” states. There are no undesirable states.

A full human experience is an experience that moves fluidly through all of them.

When I started decoding my sbOS I was not aware that jealousy and comparison were symptoms of shame.

As the sbOS gets rewritten with the lbOS I notice more and more that I am completely unbothered by other people’s success or judgment.

I see it and feel that it is evidence of what is possible.

It’s not something to feel bad about or to compare myself against.

Its the opposite. It’s an opportunity to celebrate and send love.

I invite you to track this.

The next time you feel jealousy or drop into comparison, check in with the sbOS underneath.

What shame-based identification is the person’s success touching in you?

Below is an excerpt from a longform piece I wrote last year on this topic



For decades, we’ve been assured that mental illness is genetic in origin or the result of a chemical imbalance in the brain. Many of us have been told this by people in white coats. I was told this too, early in my own life and training. It was comforting, in a way. If my distress came from broken biology, then perhaps a pill or a protocol could fix it.

Here’s the reality: the theory of genetic causation has never been proven. No physical findings, blood tests, or brain scans can diagnose a mental disorder. As Maté notes, “There are no measurable physical markers of mental illness, other than the subjective or behavioral.” This absence of biological clarity has been acknowledged even by leading psychiatrists who have called for a broader philosophical foundation for the field (Kendler, 2005).

This doesn’t mean biology is irrelevant; it means biology is responsive, not deterministic. Yet the psychiatric field has long sought validation as a “hard science,” chasing the precision of laboratory medicine (Hyman, 2010). In 2013, when the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) was released, the chair of its task force, Dr. David Kupfer, admitted, “We’ve been telling patients for decades that we are waiting for biomarkers. We’re still waiting.”

Still waiting, and still prescribing, labeling, and pathologizing.

I’d love to hear from you all on this one, especially licensed therapists.

Where do you land? Pro or against coaches and coaching?

Why or why not?

I believe that conscious adults are responsible primarily for two things:

Transmuting our pain and suffering by sharing our stories.

And properly grieving as we move through life’s endless cycles of death and rebirth.

Both of those things are terrifying.

They ask us to stop hiding behind performance, productivity, numbness, perfectionism, and self-abandonment. They ask us to feel what is actually here. To stop negotiating with reality. To stop collapsing our lives down to something manageable and familiar just because uncertainty scares us.

Most people are not trapped by their pain nearly as much as they are trapped by the strategies they developed to avoid feeling it.

So we shame ourselves into staying small. We disconnect from our bodies. We silence our desires.

But I have witnessed it over and over again in myself and in the people I work with:

The moment someone becomes willing to face themselves honestly, life begins to open.

There is a richness, intimacy, and aliveness waiting on the other side of the shame-based operating system.

And every single time, it is worth confronting.

Because becoming capable of truly giving and receiving love is one of the most meaningful things a human being can do.

If this speaks to something you know in your bones, comment “crabwalk” and I’ll send you the details for The Honest Body. We begin June 2 and there are 2 spots left.

I toolk some editorial liberties with the quote, combining two pieces of work by Bacon.

I am referencing The Masculine Birth of Time written in 1603 and Novum Organum written in 1620.

The seeds of Domination run deep. Far deeper than 400ish years ago but this is a helpful place to start.

We carry this shame on a collective level. And we don’t know what to do about it.

So we continue to extract, to dominate, and to alienate.

The Honest Body is about reconciling shame on an individual level but its also a collective exploration.

When you see the layers of shame in yourself you can begin to see them in the larger world.

And folks who can see, attune to, reconcile, and relate are the super heroes we need in this time of collective collapse.

In the human body collapse is a sign of shame. In the collective societal and institutional collapse is a sign shame.

As above so below.

There are a 2 spots left in The Honest Body. We start in 6 days.

Comment “Crabwalk” if you want the details.

I’d love to become a superhero with you.

If you want to work on your own sbOS so you can be more available to give and receive love, I want to help you.

We are one week away from The Honest Body 2.

We start June 2. Cost is $800. It will never be priced this low again.

I’ve got 3 spots left.

Comment “crabwalk” and I’ll send the details over.

Also feel free to dm me if you’ve got any questions.

Hope to see you in there.

With love,

Christian

The honest body starts June 2. 3 spots left. Comment “crabwalk” for details.

Reel Transcript below:

Let’s decode the sbOS in 90 seconds or less.

First, you have to realize that your shame-based identifications were developed as coping strategies.

Child consciousness uses the sbOS to create simplicity and safety in an infinitely complex universe.

Child consciousness believes that if you are bad, then you can simply learn to be good and bad things will stop happening.

Obviously it doesn’t work this way.

The sbOS remains until you recognize that it is a coping mechanism keeping you from facing your fears.

Shame is protecting you from fear.

Adult consciousness is capable of contending with fear. Adults do this by eating death cookies.

When you eat death cookies you widen your gap of agency.

Agency means you have choice, and choice is scary because it implies responsibility.

Responsibility is an existential concern that folks will construct entire lives around avoiding.

But once again, adult consciousness is capable of contending with responsibility.

As you exit the sbOS you have two primary responsibilities.

1st responsibility: exercise your creativity by sharing your story. It is a gift. Shared in the right way at the right time, your story will literally save someones life. This is your responsibility.

2nd responsibility: Tend to your grief. Life is an endless series of deaths and rebirths. Tend to the deaths, celebrate the rebirths. Grief and praise are two sides of the same coin.

Shame —> fear —> agency —> responsibility —> creativity

That is the path. That is how you decode the sbOS and move toward the love-based operating system.

If you want to walk this path with us, check out the caption.

Remember, feeling is freedom.

I spent many many years refusing to let go of my shame-based operating system (sbOS) and allowing it to die.

A part of me thought it was safer to believe I was irreparably broken than to confront the possibility that I wasn’t.

This makes sense because confronting the possibility that I was in fact not broken required me to face my fears, develop agency, and take responsibility for the wounded parts of me that needed attention.

This is the craziest thing about the sbOS. Its purpose is to protect you from fear and responsibility.

Child consciousness, the part of you using shame to keep yourself safe, needs support to let go of the belief and step into adult consciousness.

The journey is not neccesarily easy, but it is simple when you can see the path and you have a supportive group of folks around you navigating similar challenges.

This is exactly why I developed The Honest Body. The second cohort starts June 2 and there are 3 spots left.

I would love to have you in there. Comment “crabwalk” if you want the details and I’ll send them over to you.

DISCLAIMER: The Honest Body is not a crisis support group. If you are experiencing suicidal ideation, engaging in self-harm, or exhibiting suicidal behaviors contact crisis services in your area.

Again, comment “crabwalk” to get the details about the group. We start June 2.
