“I don’t know what’s wrong with me.” In Lecture 3 of Human Design for Therapists & Coaches, Rebecca Lovatt explores the not-self themes and how to hear frustration, bitterness, anger and disappointment as messengers instead of faults.
In this episode:
- What the not-self is and why it began as survival intelligence
- Jung’s shadow and Robert Bly’s long black bag: the disowned self holds unlived gifts as well as wounds
- The five not-self themes and their shadow archetypes: the Striving Worker, the Unseen Expert, the Caged Initiator and the Disillusioned Mirror
- The scales of self and not-self as a daily check-in
- Moving from pathology to signal: asking “what is this pointing toward?”
- The clinical stance: curiosity, regulation first, and care with rumination
- The four cups of maintenance, service, purpose and fun
- A practice for meeting your own not-self emotions this week
For therapists, coaches and practitioners who work with shame, shadow and difficult emotion, and want a compassionate, non-diagnostic way to bring Human Design into the room.
