Blog: https://psychreviews.org/object-relations-melanie-klein-pt-2/ To demystify Psychoanalysis, I want to go into an aside in this series to bring therapy into phenomenological experience. The end point of therapy is to successfully, love, work, and or sublimate in healthy activities and relationships. The impediments to that are in the external environment, with obstacles, but there are internal obstacles to be considered as well. You want to see and feel how your inner world is holding you back.

Blog: http://psychreviews.org/the-presocratics-parmenides/ Many people look to the East for knowledge of spiritual contemplation and meditation, but the West had its own influencers with similar insights. Parmenides of Elea provided a way of "Thinking" that influenced continental philosophers like Martin Heidegger and is still relevant in today's world of distraction and social control.

Blog: http://psychreviews.org/humour-sigmund-freud/ Like in his book on dreams, Freud begins "The Joke and Its Relation to the Unconscious" with a survey of expert opinions on the workings of humour. They include novelist Jean Paul, psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin, and philosophers, Theodor Vischer, Kuno Fischer, and Theodor Lipps. Their opinions include ways to view humour as "playful judgment", "a free play of ideas", "sense in nonsense", "bafflement and light dawning." Lipp emphsizes brevity, "wit says what it does say, not always in few, but always in too few words." This allows the listener the pleasure to figure things out. With more depth some of the opinions move closer to where Freud is heading. To have wit is to have "the ability to...find hidden similarities", and "linking two ideas which in some way are contrasted with each other."
