You should make a series were you don't have a set topic and you can go off on tangents about different things you have opinions on I would love to hear them all.
I feel you really changed taking these concepts and using them, you did a good work. I don't care about the mistakes you did since you got it together being as honest as you can. Love you uncle ER
Carl Jung's writings were helpful/impactful. He was one of the trees in a forest of certain people who's apples I've eaten. We will never stop making mistakes, but we can try to learn from the ones we made, and try to limit the mistakes we make in the future. We'll never be perfect though.
@@EphemeralRift true, in fact I do not act like somebody who never "sinned", everyone does. I always was supporting you and I'll always do because you are one of the few real people in ASMR. You put effort on how to explain your thoughts and don't only follow trends but bring to us "pieces of you". That's I think what we really like about you
13:50 I think what you're trying to say there was "they're teaching you how to be a cog in a clock, but not how to be a color in a painting." Or something along those poetic lines.
Came here because I was curious about Jung, but ended up learning a lot more from you. Thanks bro. ASMR is something I've felt sometimes but couldn't describe. What you say about the world catering non sensitives is very true. It seems to me a lot of people live their lives like desensified mules. Your description of the universe as rocks floating around is something that is often on my mind. I like to think how lucky it is for us to actually be here right now!
i think it's pretty unsettling that everyone of your characters say "I hope you are doing well" in the beginning of every video. it's almost like... they're the same dude
The Beard is Back! Very Interesting video ER, I am actually enrolled in an AP Psychology class starting my next year of education, and was rather intrigued by this video. I appreciate the effort you made into educating all the fine people here. Hope all is well, ciao.
Something that relaxes me so much is when you look at the paper in a short pause. It makes me remember seeing job interviews on TV as a kid, and the relaxation and drowsiness that came with it.
Your mind from a Freudian concept is constructed of the id, superego, and ego. The id is our our impulses, the superego is our sense of morality. The id and superego are at constant battle. The result is ego, our personality and what others and the self projects. Great video man! Great way to spread knowledge
Pretty much, but his concepts and ideas are still a part of the foundation of modern psychology. Some psychologist incorporate feuds ideas into their work
Speaking of free knowledge. The Australian government is looking to deregulate university fees so we're more like the US, where university education costs your internal organs and firstborn child. Our current system here is pretty good. Our tertiary education is government subsidised, and we have to pay back the tuition fees via tax once we're earning a certain income level. The amount we pay back is typically more than we're subsidised for as it's tied to inflation, but we don't really have to fret over interest rates. I don't think the changes will ever get through the upper house because it'll be seen as a violation of the rights of the Australian people, but still, this is the right-wing government we're dealing with at the moment. Ludicrous.
Ephemeral, I watch you videos for about 4-5 years and you always did great jobs. Look at this one. I was at home searching about Carl Jung and what could be a better way to learn if not with ASMR type of? You posted this one on 2014! Cheers bro, you deserve it!
You are my current go to asmrer. I love your mixture of creepy and relaxing. Your Lovecraft inspired videos are my favorite. I love the Corvus accent the most. I have a cthulhu tattoo so it's neat to find videos with that specific theme. Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for your dedication to your community. There's some of us out there that really need you... I know I sleep much more easily now. Thanks again!
Thank you for this video. I have always enjoyed your ASMR videos and think that it's great you are discussing heavy topics like Carl Jung. I would LOVE to see more of these videos on "real" topics about psychology and exploring the self. You continue to entertain and enlighten me with every video!!! :D:D
Great video, ER. Although I am interested in psychology and the many topics related to it, I never actually heard about Carl Jung. I was surprised to know he was involved or was a major part of so many of the topics that I've come to know about regarding personality and what "type of a person" a person is, so I definitely agree that he was to psychology as Einstein was to science. Understanding personality and emotions and seeking self-betterment is something I am personally interested in as well, so I feel like I can connect to you in a few ways (introvertism, self-improvement, logical thinking, etc). I think reflection and a drive to learn about what interests you is very important, as well as understanding yourself and trying to manage emotions, quirks, or the like. Anyway, thanks for this video, and I look forward to your future videos on related topics.
i see u r into the softie science - my main message to u has been to abide by the biological deterministic pathways, the hardwiring, the imprint vulnerability and programming built in before all these socially constructed and enviro influences can have even the slightest effect
I love this kind of thing--just being human and talking about thoughts, not having to have a PhD level knowledge on a topic but just enjoying the life of the mind. Some of these thoughts probably don't fit into my worldview, but some of them probably can, if I frame them a little differently. I especially love the idea of growing in both positive introverted tendencies and positive extroverted tendencies. I had fun looking up the links on Carl Jung, and I think I think a lot like he did--the way he saw things about his own mind and took note of them. The drawings in the red book are really interesting and beautiful, too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Paul. Always a pleasure! And the chalkboard sounds along with the speaking feel wonderful.
DomoxLove007 Well, no, that's actually fact. It is riddled with confirmation bias, subjective validation, and various conjectures that make it incredibly unscientific. It teaches stereotyping of people and putting people into boxes to better understand the human condition, which is backwards thinking. This is no different from the forer effect with astrology where people will read a description that sounds nice to them, then make themselves the indicator as to whether the description is right or not. If you are the one deciding whether something is right or not, and the natural world is no basis for it, then you are gaining absolutely nothing from reading the description in the first place. It doesn't matter if you're talking about the MBTI 8 function model, beebe's model, Carl Jung's model, or the Temperament model, the same fundamental principles apply. Carl Jung had no scientific foundation for proof when he wrote Psychological Types. He basically just conjectured his hundreds of patients and created a model out of it as if he was validating something. MBTI then came around and conjectured off of his conjectures of people and made a model around a model that was already heavily flawed. The human condition is simply too complex to describe into words like this and call it a day. Furthermore, stereotyping people and putting people into boxes as if they are destined to do certain things is absolutely ridiculous. Humans have an almost infinite potentiality, and categorizing the innate nature of them would require a great amount of scientific nuance. Neither Carl Jung nor MBTI has scratched the surface of this.
Ben Teskey "Bullshit," no, that's actually opinion. People find use in MBTI, whether we find scientific evidence for it or not. It's fun, and it helps people talk about different ways of thinking and feeling. "You are the one deciding whether something is right or not." Yes, exactly. You decide how to define yourself. If you relate to some label, it's easy to just say so, and you can change it if you change your mind. It's just a bunch of shortcuts. "Stereotyping people and putting people into boxes as if they are destined to do certain things is absolutely ridiculous." I agree. It depends on how you use it. It's like walking into a dark room. If something is large and boxy, MBTI says that's probably a dresser (maybe it's a cabinet or something, but at least you have an idea). Until we find a light source, you can assume it's a dresser, or you can keep it in the back of your mind that it might be a dresser while you continue to gather information.
It is difficult, but we all have Ego and it can change our Intent unfortunately if we don't realize Ego is rearing it's ugly head. I too am an introvert but can come out of my shell sometimes lol I used to think only extroverts were good but through life and being in my 50's now I have come to the conclusion that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being introverted!! You are the BEST at starting a discussion and making us think I have just starting read alot of Carl Jung online, unfortunately because of my health troubles I cannot sit and read a book of his.....but I find it all so very interesting and thought provoking. Thank you ER
I look forward to your video on Synchronicity, when I first read the paper it changed my entire life philosophy. For me, "meaningful coincidence" might as well be "inevitable coincidence".
The collective unconscious, is something that I experience everyday in my daily living. I thought it was the collective conscious, but the way you have been describing this topic. I am getting a very better understanding of all of this.
You said your not a teacher but you really are. I learned a lot in this video & I have learned & retained some of the greatest things from people who had no formal education. I think that there is no education like life experience. Sometimes those experiences can be greater than just reading it in a book. Thanks for sharing this ER....really liked this :))
Hey thanks I appreciate it! And I agree with you.To a certain extent there sometimes is nothing better than learning from someone who's not a formal "teacher" like you said. Maybe we need more of that. Thanks for your comment!
Having studied psychology on a pretty basic level, I don't really have any credits on this subject. I do remember though this one time our teacher asked us to fill in a questionnaire related to Jung - didn't think about it much at the time, but I remember the results matching almost perfectly with my subjective perception of the world, as I saw it back then. Since then, I've always been interested in psychology and whether it's a science or not doesn't really matter to me.
I am a believer in the freud theory of the ID the EGO and the SUPEREGO, this is much what you are talking about Ephemeral, ID- the primal, and the subconscious, The EGO- pleasing others, compromise etc, and the SUPEREGO - wanting to do things for others :) i find all this very interesting and study it as a student
I don't know if this was intentionally an ASMR video, but this still worked for me. Maybe one of your personas could be a professor that gives lectures in this soft spoken voice. Your voice has a certain level of roughness, or gravel in this video that just works for me and maybe some other people too.
Literally just remembered about Clemmons.. But I mean a college professor, it doesn't really matter. It's more about the voice than who uses it. The lip smacking, pauses, and sometimes repeating words relaxes me and triggers me a few times.
Ok, you're awesome. I've been a fan for a long time and every time I look for a particular type of Asmr, you have it. Thanks a lot and I hope you are doing well. P.S. 46 and 2
Knowledge is free thanks to the internet, but accreditation; to say that you know something to a high standard; that's what you're paying for at college. Not the right to learn but the recognition that you have learned to a graded standard.
I agree with that to a point, except if you want to be a Brain Surgeon for example. And I understand educators need to eat too. I just think there needs to be a better way but that's a whole other discussion which involves so many various factors.
Yeah, I get that, but... This "accreditation" comes at a price far too high in the US. Accreditation and tuition should be affordable to everyone, not just the chosen few. Else the poor will forever stay poor, no, they will only get poorer.
ClydeYellow "Else the poor will forever stay poor, no, they will only get poorer" Well, that's the point. No matter the sentiments and words of many that speak of the contrary.
Pwntard it is the unfortunate way that society works for there to be a rich we must have a poor and for the rich to stay rich they will stand on the throats of the poor
In other words, you can learn everything on your own but unless you have a degree you won't get any prestige in academic circles. Fortunately, no one outside these circles cares.
Curious, what kind of microphone do you use? And what program you use to cancel background noise if any? Great video, I've been excited seeing you post a video everyday!
Highly enjoyed this introduction on Jung... and so, may I suggest doing some pieces about two or three others who were all deeply among the ring of Jung's influence - Alan Watts, Joseph Campbell, and Jiddu Krishnamurti? I have been studying all of these people and what they've shared and they each share a message about something stemmed from Jung in some way, about perception, mythology, spirituality, and society... :)
AA was Jung.. he figured out that the only way to beat addictive drugs was to realize your life is not in your hands and is as such run by a higher power, getting the victim to realize this was the first step to freedom and recovery
All the respect in the world ER. Can't agree with you on a few things here, most of which are already posted in the comments but I hope you continue to focus on ASMR videos as opposed to psychology seminars. Tingle on.
Was it Franklin who believed knowledge should be free, and shared his inventions with everyone? He believed that knowledge was just a discovery of something that already exists in the world, and questioned how a human could claim to "own" such an abstract concept.
I looooved the video by the way! XD Just a bit about the archetypes of the mind, where would cases of privation occur? Like Genie or the French wolf-boy from the middle ages, they weren't raised in such a socially structured society and so became completely animalistic due to their lack of attachments and socialization etc. Could it be that the archetypes are a pattern of repeated behavior passed down from generation to generation, like a nursery rhyme, which would also explain the changing attitudes over time and differences to our ancestors? Do you think it has a more philosophical or psychological/cultural basis, personally?
I am wondering if youre also a fan of the myers Briggs type indicator ( mbti ) ? They base they're work on Carl Jungs archetypes. There are 16 possible possible types. My personality type is infp. Part of me thinks that based on your depth of creativity, imagination, and introversion that youight be infp or infj. I've been a fan of yours for a long time and I can relate to many of your thoughts and ideas.
I agree with some of carl jung's stuff, i took an intro psychology class in my first year in school and some of it seemed far fetched to me though. However, i did not read anything, just a few brief classes based around carl jung. but the reality of it is that there i no way to prove his beliefs true or false, so if it feels true to one person, then it IS true to them, and that's the basis of faith, However, i personally do not have such a positive outlook some things that you described in this video, such as when you were saying that there is a meaning to everything. To me, the consciousness that we have, the ability to acknowledge our own existence is great, and we are incredibly lucky to have it, but it doesn't go much beyond that. And when i say it is great, "great" is just a word. We are in fact insignificant, outside of us, that in no way make us insignificant to ourselves though. The way i see it there are two extremes to everything, and when those two extremes are combined, you get nature. and nature is perfect, and nature entices everything. Nature includes everything, and anything outside of nature is unreal, therefore, nothing is unnatural. Unnatural is merely a word that the human race has tagged to things and actions that are out of the norm. But in reality these "unnatural" things are completely natural. "Good" and "bad" are nothing more than ideas created by humans, and therefore nature doesn't choose one over the other, but unfortunately for our fragile makeup, nature can defeat us quite effortlessly. I dislike the amount of respect freud and jung's theories get. Nowadays people in the field of psychology throw them around as if they are jokes. They are not given enough credit, in the psychology class i took, the professor taught that that though freud and jung's theories are interesting, they are false. I remember the professor saying something along the lines of "the main reason we credit freud and jung when talking about psychology is because they were the first people to think about things in this way, even though they were wrong." This disappoints me, those two were the beatles of psychology and i personally think they don't get enough credit anymore.
Love this. I've done a couple videos on psych myself (including MBTI) but I'd love to see more about your take on many of these topics. If you're familiar with Loevinger's Stages of Ego Development (which I did a video on) I'd love to hear your take on that as well, ER.
I like you with the beard, it gives you some contrast. Without any hair at all I think people look slightly strange, but you usually have a prop on your head or face which helps bring some contrast to your facial appearance. I'd highly recommend keeping the beard, it makes you look very nice.
There is an interesting (if not always a page turner) book called 'quiet, the power of introverts in a world that cant stop talking'. It is a self reflective study into introversion and extroversion. Its by Susan Cain. It might be something you would enjoy :) Also thanks for the videos. They're always really relaxing and informative. Love your stories too. I'm an animator myself and I have contemplated the idea for a while of starting an animation you tube channel. Half to learn, half to discuss and theorise, and a smidgen of asmr too. Who knows, maybe ill find the time someday. Either way thanks for the inspiration to even consider it.
Myer Briggs defines extroversion and introversion as they are associated to three of our other characteristics. I reccomend looking into Myer Briggs personality analysis.
It seems strange, I've herd many of these terms you say Jung coined through my life, like introversion and h.s.p. And yet I've never heard his name, this video has been a eye opener for me er, thank you very much for it. In addition I think I just about agree with everything you suggested. I would suggest to anyone interested in the synchronicity that you look up WB Yeats belief on cycles and external forces, I think the two ideas may relate. I agree with er and Jung, as I agree with Yeats also. Coincidences are too common to be coincidences.
Good asmr. I got interested in Jung from doing ayahuasca which basically dips you right into the world of archytpes and symbols on the way through to other realms. Jungs Red Book seems to describe a similar kind of journey.
I've smoked dmt sooo many times, I have to agree about the archetypes. I usually sense this maternal loving mom energy during my dmt trips... Its fucking crazy, more research and attention should be on DMT :)
A couple years late on this one. Is anyone aware of any polls on type and asmr? For example, any patterns on triggers and type? I'm an INTJ and find myself heavily drawn to conversational whispering... roleplays of various types, especially friend roleplays of various intimacy. I'm curious how much of that is a side-effect of the stereotypical (and personally experienced) emotional distancing that INTJs are known for and how much is part of the ASMR experience in general. My ASMR really feels like a shivery delight of contact... perhaps as of someone getting through emotional walls? Walls that are safe to drop for a video, but go right back up when things get "too real."
That's a really interesting question! There isn't any polls like that that I'm aware of. I'm an ENFP and I personally enjoy soft-spoken rambles. It feels really casual and down to earth and that relaxes me.
INTJ here too. I've wondered about this myself; if type as some correlation or even causation with the various kinds of asmr triggers. Personally, I think there isn't one. I've heard an ESTP say he gets asmr triggers from doing karate. I think the things which trigger us are those things which we didn't have as children, things which were absent during our early development. Or at least things we didn't have enough of. For me, I pretty much never trigger from conversation alone. It seems like a sexual thing for me, or perhaps an intimacy thing. I trigger best from women when they are close to the camera or scratch the mic. It could be the "emotional walls" you're suggesting. As for polls, I wouldn't trust one. Most people just rely on the tests to determine their type, without studying the theory. You've got to know these people are the type they say in order for the results to be accurate.
I've gotten several times. Chills/tingles just from observing my own thoughts. Alone and in public at work. It's not SOLELY caused by the simple observation, but it often happens when I say some vague made up axiom AFTER observing previous thoughts. Idk if it's a built in reward system because I no longer receive them through videos. When those tingles did happen it felt like a reset. I no longer had any need or felt reason to sit and think. I just went back to a daily task whether a household chore, playing a video game, or reading. In that perspective it felt like an informational reset trigger.
wait, according to Jung there's two types of ego: the one that is and the one how it wants to be perceived. The first is trying to influence the outside world, the second is influenced by it. Are the two both of each forming a whole, or are they opposites?
I am not a person who experiences ASMR in response to auditory stimulus. In fact, I find type of speaking and many other auditory sounds that are supposed to trigger it intensely irritating. However, I am very curious about it. The sensation people describe as occuring with ASMR is very close to the feeling I get from an intellectually stimulating idea or conversation, hearing brilliant music, or perceiving meaning in any beautiful piece of film or artwork. It's a physical sensation, electrical and pleasurable - I interpret it as a sign that something is communicating with my soul (if there is such a thing). Can anyone who experiences auditory ASMR tell me if this is the same sensation?
I wrote a comment here, about alchemy. But I can't find it anymore. I hope it wasn't censorship. I wrote about alchemy (in the sense of spirituality) that it has a danger of getting lost in it. That it might lead to "heaven" or "hell". Or to "hell" first and then very maybe to "heaven". There are old pictures which mock alchemists for having their kids sent to the poorhouse. Mothers even neglect their children to get to some higher level of existance. (And just because of that, these mothers won't get to that level.) I think that's a legit observation. The dream world (and such) can in fact become a nightmare, if people don't know what they're doing. They can get lost in their own brain, for example.
Dude you should do like an ASMR Crash Course type series

Plan on it.

Well being that you are studying psychology I could probably learn a thing or two from you. Thanks for your comment.
Fascinating... Thank you for taking the time to make this video in order to introduce such an influential person
Excellent topic. Would love to see something on Neitzsche or Marx.
Definitely will discuss Nietzsche .
deekismusic marx ? How cute.
No way!!!!!!! Was just researching this guy 5 minutes ago and now I look onto my yt and there is this video.
I am in AA, this has been the biggest catalyst in my recovery, and in my daily living.

It's fun, and it helps people talk about different ways of thinking and feeling. "You are the one deciding whether something is right or not." Yes, exactly. You decide how to define yourself. If you relate to some label, it's easy to just say so, and you can change it if you change your mind. It's just a bunch of shortcuts.
"Stereotyping people and putting people into boxes as if they are destined to do certain things is absolutely ridiculous." I agree. It depends on how you use it. It's like walking into a dark room. If something is large and boxy, MBTI says that's probably a dresser (maybe it's a cabinet or something, but at least you have an idea). Until we find a light source, you can assume it's a dresser, or you can keep it in the back of your mind that it might be a dresser while you continue to gather information.
You look like Heisenberg!
Say my name
Walter white betch!
It is difficult, but we all have Ego and it can change our Intent unfortunately if we don't realize Ego is rearing it's ugly head.
I too am an introvert but can come out of my shell sometimes lol
I used to think only extroverts were good but through life and being in my 50's now I have come to the conclusion that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being introverted!!
You are the BEST at starting a discussion and making us think
I have just starting read alot of Carl Jung online, unfortunately because of my health troubles I cannot sit and read a book of his.....but I find it all so very interesting and thought provoking.
Thank you ER
You should do a video talking about each of the 16 mbti personalities. Like each type gets a separate vid.
this is everything I've ever wanted
I look forward to your video on Synchronicity, when I first read the paper it changed my entire life philosophy. For me, "meaningful coincidence" might as well be "inevitable coincidence".
The collective unconscious, is something that I experience everyday in my daily living. I thought it was the collective conscious, but the way you have been describing this topic. I am getting a very better understanding of all of this.
You said your not a teacher but you really are. I learned a lot in this video & I have learned & retained some of the greatest things from people who had no formal education. I think that there is no education like life experience. Sometimes those experiences can be greater than just reading it in a book. Thanks for sharing this ER....really liked this :))
Hey thanks I appreciate it! And I agree with you.To a certain extent there sometimes is nothing better than learning from someone who's not a formal "teacher" like you said. Maybe we need more of that. Thanks for your comment!
Thank you so much for posting this, I have a psych test soon and it was nice to learn more about him and be relaxed at the same time
I really enjoy that your videos are informative, as well as relaxing.
I didn't know you had a video about Carl Jung. He's probably the most interesting Psychologist, or rather Psychiatrist, that I've studied
Having studied psychology on a pretty basic level, I don't really have any credits on this subject. I do remember though this one time our teacher asked us to fill in a questionnaire related to Jung - didn't think about it much at the time, but I remember the results matching almost perfectly with my subjective perception of the world, as I saw it back then. Since then, I've always been interested in psychology and whether it's a science or not doesn't really matter to me.
Well you have more credits than me since I've never even studied the subject. Thanks for your comment.
How have I never heard of this youtuber before? This video was excellent
I've just learned about this great man today(Day 1) and now watching ur video...thank you for this *thumbs up*
I am a believer in the freud theory of the ID the EGO and the SUPEREGO, this is much what you are talking about Ephemeral, ID- the primal, and the subconscious, The EGO- pleasing others, compromise etc, and the SUPEREGO - wanting to do things for others :) i find all this very interesting and study it as a student
Dude, I would love a lecture/discussion series of ASMR's from you. Just for the purpose of familiarity, as opposed to in-depth learning.
i have an exam in some days xD so it's highly appreciated a relaxing video about something i have to study! Better then a normal one i mean.
I purchased Psychological Types by Carl Jung. I find psychology very interesting, thanks for introducing me to Carl Jung!
I miss this kind of videooooos!!!
I don't know if this was intentionally an ASMR video, but this still worked for me. Maybe one of your personas could be a professor that gives lectures in this soft spoken voice. Your voice has a certain level of roughness, or gravel in this video that just works for me and maybe some other people too.
Literally just remembered about Clemmons.. But I mean a college professor, it doesn't really matter. It's more about the voice than who uses it. The lip smacking, pauses, and sometimes repeating words relaxes me and triggers me a few times.
Knowlege IS free. What you pay for is a piece of paper.
but the place i get knowledge at costs money.
Nick Belanger It’s only free if you are talking about price. Knowledge does have costs though.
Food is free, what you're paying for is ingredients.
Sounds cool but it makes no sense
Excellent video ER. Loved the topic and your approach to the topic.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and for your feedback.
This video is perfect for me haha! I love ASMR and I'm taking a psychology course with teachings of Jung. Long time sub! Love all your videos.
Anyone play Persona 4 here? Jung's philosophies and theories make up quite a lot of the game's lore.
Im from Puerto Rico, I would love to see more videos like this! please!
Finally asmr to learn a thing or two
I'd love to see you do things like these on philosophy, like nihilism.
I believe the filmmaker you referred to is Federico Fellini. He made some intriguing films about the subconscious and dreams.
Ok, you're awesome. I've been a fan for a long time and every time I look for a particular type of Asmr, you have it. Thanks a lot and I hope you are doing well.
P.S. 46 and 2
Knowledge is free thanks to the internet, but accreditation; to say that you know something to a high standard; that's what you're paying for at college. Not the right to learn but the recognition that you have learned to a graded standard.
I agree with that to a point, except if you want to be a Brain Surgeon for example. And I understand educators need to eat too. I just think there needs to be a better way but that's a whole other discussion which involves so many various factors.
Yeah, I get that, but... This "accreditation" comes at a price far too high in the US. Accreditation and tuition should be affordable to everyone, not just the chosen few.
Else the poor will forever stay poor, no, they will only get poorer.
ClydeYellow "Else the poor will forever stay poor, no, they will only get poorer"
Well, that's the point. No matter the sentiments and words of many that speak of the contrary.
Pwntard it is the unfortunate way that society works for there to be a rich we must have a poor and for the rich to stay rich they will stand on the throats of the poor
In other words, you can learn everything on your own but unless you have a degree you won't get any prestige in academic circles.
Fortunately, no one outside these circles cares.
I really liked this video, not necessarily asmr, but the video was very interesting and I was very intrigued :)
Curious, what kind of microphone do you use? And what program you use to cancel background noise if any? Great video, I've been excited seeing you post a video everyday!
I use a Zoom brand microphone. Thanks for watching!
Highly enjoyed this introduction on Jung... and so, may I suggest doing some pieces about two or three others who were all deeply among the ring of Jung's influence - Alan Watts, Joseph Campbell, and Jiddu Krishnamurti? I have been studying all of these people and what they've shared and they each share a message about something stemmed from Jung in some way, about perception, mythology, spirituality, and society... :)
AA was Jung.. he figured out that the only way to beat addictive drugs was to realize your life is not in your hands and is as such run by a higher power, getting the victim to realize this was the first step to freedom and recovery
Really informative video
All the respect in the world ER. Can't agree with you on a few things here, most of which are already posted in the comments but I hope you continue to focus on ASMR videos as opposed to psychology seminars. Tingle on.
Would you ever consider politics? I'm really in to politics and I would love to hear your view on certain topics!
Was it Franklin who believed knowledge should be free, and shared his inventions with everyone? He believed that knowledge was just a discovery of something that already exists in the world, and questioned how a human could claim to "own" such an abstract concept.
I looooved the video by the way! XD Just a bit about the archetypes of the mind, where would cases of privation occur? Like Genie or the French wolf-boy from the middle ages, they weren't raised in such a socially structured society and so became completely animalistic due to their lack of attachments and socialization etc.
Could it be that the archetypes are a pattern of repeated behavior passed down from generation to generation, like a nursery rhyme, which would also explain the changing attitudes over time and differences to our ancestors? Do you think it has a more philosophical or psychological/cultural basis, personally?
As a student of psychology, I'd like to thank you for this video. It's great to see people have a genuine interest on the field. Awesome job.
This is so good. Thank you, Rift.
I like when Uncle E has a beard.
I like when you like when I have a beard too.
Make one about H.P Lovecraft!!! Thank You so Much for this one.
Greetings from Argentina.
I am wondering if youre also a fan of the myers Briggs type indicator ( mbti ) ? They base they're work on Carl Jungs archetypes. There are 16 possible possible types.
My personality type is infp. Part of me thinks that based on your depth of creativity, imagination, and introversion that youight be infp or infj. I've been a fan of yours for a long time and I can relate to many of your thoughts and ideas.
Myers Briggs is a massive heap of horseshit. It's credibility isn't even a debate.
he's an infp btw
I agree with some of carl jung's stuff, i took an intro psychology class in my first year in school and some of it seemed far fetched to me though. However, i did not read anything, just a few brief classes based around carl jung. but the reality of it is that there i no way to prove his beliefs true or false, so if it feels true to one person, then it IS true to them, and that's the basis of faith, However, i personally do not have such a positive outlook some things that you described in this video, such as when you were saying that there is a meaning to everything. To me, the consciousness that we have, the ability to acknowledge our own existence is great, and we are incredibly lucky to have it, but it doesn't go much beyond that. And when i say it is great, "great" is just a word. We are in fact insignificant, outside of us, that in no way make us insignificant to ourselves though. The way i see it there are two extremes to everything, and when those two extremes are combined, you get nature. and nature is perfect, and nature entices everything. Nature includes everything, and anything outside of nature is unreal, therefore, nothing is unnatural. Unnatural is merely a word that the human race has tagged to things and actions that are out of the norm. But in reality these "unnatural" things are completely natural. "Good" and "bad" are nothing more than ideas created by humans, and therefore nature doesn't choose one over the other, but unfortunately for our fragile makeup, nature can defeat us quite effortlessly.
I dislike the amount of respect freud and jung's theories get. Nowadays people in the field of psychology throw them around as if they are jokes. They are not given enough credit, in the psychology class i took, the professor taught that that though freud and jung's theories are interesting, they are false. I remember the professor saying something along the lines of "the main reason we credit freud and jung when talking about psychology is because they were the first people to think about things in this way, even though they were wrong." This disappoints me, those two were the beatles of psychology and i personally think they don't get enough credit anymore.
This is awesome! Love educational asmr
Love this. I've done a couple videos on psych myself (including MBTI) but I'd love to see more about your take on many of these topics. If you're familiar with Loevinger's Stages of Ego Development (which I did a video on) I'd love to hear your take on that as well, ER.
I'm thinking of becoming a psychologist, I'm 15 so I guess I've got some time. Never heard of Carl Jung before this video.
I like you with the beard, it gives you some contrast. Without any hair at all I think people look slightly strange, but you usually have a prop on your head or face which helps bring some contrast to your facial appearance. I'd highly recommend keeping the beard, it makes you look very nice.
Well thanks. It comes and goes but I may just hold onto it for awhile longer this time.
There is an interesting (if not always a page turner) book called 'quiet, the power of introverts in a world that cant stop talking'. It is a self reflective study into introversion and extroversion. Its by Susan Cain. It might be something you would enjoy :)
Also thanks for the videos. They're always really relaxing and informative. Love your stories too. I'm an animator myself and I have contemplated the idea for a while of starting an animation you tube channel. Half to learn, half to discuss and theorise, and a smidgen of asmr too. Who knows, maybe ill find the time someday. Either way thanks for the inspiration to even consider it.
You don't need to learn to be human; anxiety is the natural reaction to someone trying to teach you how to NOT be human.
Very soft spoken.
Myer Briggs defines extroversion and introversion as they are associated to three of our other characteristics. I reccomend looking into Myer Briggs personality analysis.
Been wanting to learn bout Jung, but also wanna just sleep… perfect compromise
It seems strange, I've herd many of these terms you say Jung coined through my life, like introversion and h.s.p. And yet I've never heard his name, this video has been a eye opener for me er, thank you very much for it. In addition I think I just about agree with everything you suggested. I would suggest to anyone interested in the synchronicity that you look up WB Yeats belief on cycles and external forces, I think the two ideas may relate. I agree with er and Jung, as I agree with Yeats also. Coincidences are too common to be coincidences.
Good asmr. I got interested in Jung from doing ayahuasca which basically dips you right into the world of archytpes and symbols on the way through to other realms. Jungs Red Book seems to describe a similar kind of journey.
I've smoked dmt sooo many times, I have to agree about the archetypes. I usually sense this maternal loving mom energy during my dmt trips... Its fucking crazy, more research and attention should be on DMT :)
ha...u ´know´
2022 anyone?
YES!!!!! More of educational ASMR. Especially from you!!
You should check the crash course channel. They've been doing a lot of psychology videos lately.
15 minutes in and besides about fifty disclaimers, I don’t know much more about Jung
Humans are already topical tangent generators. So give a break to an out of nowhere interest into a increasingly complex topic please.
@@ChuckNorrizHIM Wow, what big words you have, mr wolf.
You speak my mind. Now I love you even more!
You're an INFP! I'm an ENFP so I guess that makes us close cousins. ENFPs are empathetic feelers too and we're the most introverted of extroverts.
A couple years late on this one. Is anyone aware of any polls on type and asmr? For example, any patterns on triggers and type?
I'm an INTJ and find myself heavily drawn to conversational whispering... roleplays of various types, especially friend roleplays of various intimacy. I'm curious how much of that is a side-effect of the stereotypical (and personally experienced) emotional distancing that INTJs are known for and how much is part of the ASMR experience in general.
My ASMR really feels like a shivery delight of contact... perhaps as of someone getting through emotional walls? Walls that are safe to drop for a video, but go right back up when things get "too real."
That's a really interesting question! There isn't any polls like that that I'm aware of. I'm an ENFP and I personally enjoy soft-spoken rambles. It feels really casual and down to earth and that relaxes me.
INTJ here too. I've wondered about this myself; if type as some correlation or even causation with the various kinds of asmr triggers. Personally, I think there isn't one. I've heard an ESTP say he gets asmr triggers from doing karate. I think the things which trigger us are those things which we didn't have as children, things which were absent during our early development. Or at least things we didn't have enough of. For me, I pretty much never trigger from conversation alone. It seems like a sexual thing for me, or perhaps an intimacy thing. I trigger best from women when they are close to the camera or scratch the mic. It could be the "emotional walls" you're suggesting.
As for polls, I wouldn't trust one. Most people just rely on the tests to determine their type, without studying the theory. You've got to know these people are the type they say in order for the results to be accurate.
I've gotten several times. Chills/tingles just from observing my own thoughts. Alone and in public at work. It's not SOLELY caused by the simple observation, but it often happens when I say some vague made up axiom AFTER observing previous thoughts. Idk if it's a built in reward system because I no longer receive them through videos. When those tingles did happen it felt like a reset. I no longer had any need or felt reason to sit and think. I just went back to a daily task whether a household chore, playing a video game, or reading. In that perspective it felt like an informational reset trigger.
INTP "Logician/Architect"? Btw
Walter White asmr, finally!
wait, according to Jung there's two types of ego: the one that is and the one how it wants to be perceived. The first is trying to influence the outside world, the second is influenced by it. Are the two both of each forming a whole, or are they opposites?
Love this video :)
I am not a person who experiences ASMR in response to auditory stimulus. In fact, I find type of speaking and many other auditory sounds that are supposed to trigger it intensely irritating. However, I am very curious about it. The sensation people describe as occuring with ASMR is very close to the feeling I get from an intellectually stimulating idea or conversation, hearing brilliant music, or perceiving meaning in any beautiful piece of film or artwork. It's a physical sensation, electrical and pleasurable - I interpret it as a sign that something is communicating with my soul (if there is such a thing). Can anyone who experiences auditory ASMR tell me if this is the same sensation?
Not a big fan of psychology, but I don't mind listening to someone talk about it. Especially if it's an ASMR video. :)
Appreciate it. :)
heyy best guy ever talked about you before :D
I wrote a comment here, about alchemy. But I can't find it anymore. I hope it wasn't censorship.
I wrote about alchemy (in the sense of spirituality) that it has a danger of getting lost in it. That it might lead to "heaven" or "hell". Or to "hell" first and then very maybe to "heaven". There are old pictures which mock alchemists for having their kids sent to the poorhouse. Mothers even neglect their children to get to some higher level of existance. (And just because of that, these mothers won't get to that level.) I think that's a legit observation. The dream world (and such) can in fact become a nightmare, if people don't know what they're doing. They can get lost in their own brain, for example.
