Overview

- What is a Trauma? -- Trauma & Types -- What is C-PTSD ? -- Effects on the brain -- Effects on the nervous system -

What is Trauma? Individual trauma results from an event, series of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an individual as physically or emotionally harmful or threatening and that can have lasting adverse effects on the individual’s functioning and physical, social, emotional well-being. There are three main types of trauma: Acute, Chronic, or Complex - Acute trauma results from a single incident. - Chronic trauma is repeated and prolonged such as domestic violence or abuse. - Complex trauma is exposure to varied and multiple traumatic events, often of an invasive, interpersonal nature. Trauma and Brain Development Research has shown that children are particularly vulnerable to trauma because of their rapidly developing brain. During traumatic experiences, a child’s brain is in heightened state of stress and fear-related hormones are activated. Although, stress is a normal part of life, when a child is exposed to chronic trauma, like abuse or neglect, the child’s brain remains in this heightened pattern. Remaining in this heightened state can change the emotional, behavioral and cognitive functioning of the child in order to maintain and promote survival. Over time, these traumatic experiences can have a significant impact on a child’s future behavior, emotional development, mental and physical health. - earlyconnections.mo.gov

Some of its activities include stimulating digestion, activating metabolism, and helping the body relax. Also associated with routine, day-to-day operations of the body.associated with the Hippocampus: The hippocampus is part of the limbic system in the brain, it plays a critical role in the formation, organization, and storage of new memories as well as connecting certain sensations and emotions to these memories. The hippocampus is very important to be able to connect experiences with other experiences in a kind of network of memories and for the sequence of your memories. Also closely involved with self-esteem. This makes sense given that the hippocampus is involved with autobiographical memory, a key part of our sense of self and identity, how we feel about ourselves and the stories we tell ourselves and others about who we are.

Se energy: Keywords: I sense you / Taking actions / Enjoying the moment / My image/physical appearance / My 5 senses / My body strength / Awareness of what the other experience / Absorbing unfiltered sensory informations / Short-term memory / Being present / Sexual energy / Reality as it is / Aggressivity / Entertainment / Awareness of the body needs of the others associated with the SNS (Sympathetic Nervous System): The SNS's primary process is to stimulate the body's fight or flight response. Basically, it’s responsible for heart rate increasing, blood pressure, mobilizing fat reserves, and adrenaline. This is the pathway through which we respond to danger. We need this to survive, and it’s the reason we have gotten this far as human beings. The SNS is also closely linked to the amygdala which respond to fear-based stimuli. associated with the sensory nervous system: The sensory nervous system is a part of the nervous system responsible for processing sensory information. Commonly recognized sensory systems are those for vision, hearing, touch, taste, smell, and balance.

Ti energy: Keywords: I think / My logic / My truth (logical based values about right&wrong) / My way of thinking / I understand / Awareness of my flow of thoughts / Intellectual standards / Cause and effect thinking / Systemic thinking / Analysis associated with the cerebral cortex: The cerebral cortex, the largest part of the brain, is the ultimate control and information-processing center in the brain.

Te energy: Keywords: What the others think & say / Verbal expression: expression of thoughts (talking/writing) / To manage-produce-organize / Work ethics & standards / Hierarchy / Result oriented / Focus on outcome / To organize tasks / Rationality / Awareness of the flow of thoughts of the others / Spot inefficiency within an organization / Need for efficiency / Need for order associated with the PFC (PreFrontal Cortex): This brain region has been implicated in executive functions, speech production and language comprehension. Executive function relates to planning and decision making and also the abilities to differentiate among conflicting thoughts, future consequences of current activities, working toward a defined goal, prediction of outcomes, expectation based on actions, and social "control" (the ability to suppress urges that, if not suppressed, could lead to socially unacceptable outcomes).

Fi energy : Keywords : I feel / What I value / My individuality (feeling based values about good&bad) / My authenticity / Awareness of my flow of feelings / Integrity / Moral standards / Emotional Intelligence / Understanding feelings / To make sense emotionally associated with the ICNS (Intrinsic Cardiac Nervous System): Dr. Armour, in 1991, discovered that the heart has its "little brain" or "intrinsic cardiac nervous system." This "heart brain" is composed of approximately 40,000 neurons that are alike neurons in the brain, meaning that the heart has its own nervous system. In addition, the heart communicates with the brain in many methods: neurologically, biochemically, biophysically, and energetically. The conclusion of a study shows that the heart sends more signals to the brain than vice versa.

Fe energy : Keywords : I feel you / What the group value / Group ethics / Empathy / Expression of feelings / To empathize/connect / Awareness of what the others feel / Harmony oriented / Spot disharmony within a group / Pacifism

Pairs : Energies/Cognitive Functions work all the time in pairs, as follow : Communication Pairs :Ti & Fe / Expression of empathy: Logic (Ti) + Awareness of others feelings (Fe)- Understanding (Ti) what the others feel (Fe) - Focus on understanding the emotional flow between humans - Dialogue : Exchange/Sharing a flow - "I think (Ti) that you feel this way (Fe)" Fi & Te / Expression of individuality and personal boundaries : Individuality (Fi) + Pragmatism/Rationality (Te)- Personal boundaries : Expression of the individuality (Fi) in a structured way (Te) - Prefer exchange of monologues - "Look at who I am (Fi) based on what I say (Te)" Perception Pairs :Ni & Se : Insight/inspiration (Ni) + in the moment (Se)- Perceiving & keeping a direction (Ni) in accordance with the present (Se)- Offering possible actions (Se) in relation with a direction (Ni)Ne & Si : - Perception & generation of possibilities/ideas (Ne) based on past informations/experiences (Si)

Overview

A process would be :- Firstly: to learn to visualize how each cognitive functions/energies express themselves- Secondly: to learn to visualize the internal dynamic of each type, meaning: how each energies interact within a TypeThe process is iterative, this is a game of pattern recognition

"In Beebe's Model, there is 16 "Types" of people. This means that there is 16 profiles, made out of 8 cognitive functions, which defines specific ways of thinking, feeling and perceiving the world. In other words, humans perceive the world in 16 distinct different ways." - Sloth Alchemist

"The process of personality development is heavily influenced by learning and environmental factors, so remember that each person is a unique example of their type. Be careful to not over-identify yourself or someone to a Type, this is the pitfall of this tool." - mbti-notes.tumblr.com

"Your type is not a fixed identity. Every type and function has limitless potential for positive and negative manifestations." - Meghan LeVota

Who is John Beebe ? John Beebe (born June 24, 1939) is a Jungian analyst in practice in San Francisco. He received degrees from Harvard College and the University of Chicago medical school. He is a past president of the C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco, where he is currently on the teaching faculty. Beebe demonstrates the bond between the eight types of consciousness Jung named and the archetypal complexes that impart energy and purpose to our emotions, fantasies, and dreams. John Beebe has done more for cognitive function theory than anyone else since 1990. Most of the current theory comes from him. What are the main evolutions of the Carl Jung's model ?Cognitive functions is the work of Carl Jung. However a number of people have expanded on his work and made it more accessible to the average person : - 1921 / Carl Jung's model - 1944 / Isabel Briggs Myers's model - The popular MBTI - ~1960 / Harold Grant model - 1980 / Model A - 1988 / John Beebe's Model - 2012 / Model G

The 4 letters Model - In this ebook, we won't focus on the 4 letters Model, to focus exclusively on the cognitives functions. Why ? : MBTI 4 letters Model Explained What are the flaws of this Model ? : - I/E Dichotomy : For example, an introvert if using a lot its extraverted functions will look like an extravert and vice versa for an extravert - T/F Dichotomy : For example, an INFJ can be perceived as a Thinking type if he use a lot his Ti Child I used only 2 examples, I don't want to go more into details, this is just to show you why I don't want to use this model. This is all about getting the big picture and with this Model this is not possible to reach a coherent big picture of it all. So we will use the 4 letters only to identify a Type. What are the Cognitive Functions ? - Cognitive functions, also known as psychological functions, are described by Carl Jung in his book Psychological Types as “particular mental processes within a person's psyche that are present regardless of common circumstance”. This is a concept that serves as one of the foundations for his theory on personality type. In his book, he noted four main psychological functions : thinking, feeling, sensation, and intuition. He introduced them with having either an internally focused (introverted) or externally focused (extraverted) tendency which he called "attitudes".For a better visualization we will call them "energies" or "powers" instead of "cognitive functions",here is a short description of each energies :- Ni : introverted iNtuition : about what I want, my direction, my insights, my vision, my future- Se : extraverted Sensing : about what others experience, my body (5 senses), my present- Ne : extraverted iNtuition : about what others want, the possibilities/ideas, my near-future- Si : introverted Sensing : about what I experience, my safety, my memories, my past- Te : extraverted Thinking : about what others think, what I produce & manage- Fi : introverted Feeling : about what I feel, my values (Good and Bad), my individuality- Fe : extraverted Feeling : about what others feel, group harmony/ethics - Ti : introverted Thinking : about what I think, my truth/my logic (Right and Wrong), my understanding - introverted functions : converge in energy, it seeks truth - extraverted functions : diverge in energy, it seeks connection For more details, see the description of each Dominant/Hero functions in the index ”Typology is far from being a mere categorization of types. It is a guide to the movements of psychic energy along certain paths, depending on the particularities of individual personalities.” - June Singer

Here is the 8 Cognitive Functions through "Powers" for a better visualisation and understanding : - Te : The Power of Achievement : Oriented to create order and structure Te Heroes have a sense of heroism when constructing a foundation of order and stability- Ti : The Power of Understanding : Oriented to accuracy/precision of knowledge Ti Heroes have a sense of heroism when competently solving problems logically - Fi : The Power of Self-Expression : Oriented to honor beliefs and values Fi Heroes have a sense of heroism when maintaining a solid sense of personal integrity - Fe : The Power to Harmonize : Oriented to good relationships and connectedness Fe Heroes have a sense of heroism when constructing a dependable social system/structure - Ni : The Power of Visualisation : Oriented to grasp underlying essence Ni Heroes have a sense of heroism when seeking out meaning, truth, insight, knowledge - Ne : The Power of Possibilities : Oriented to bring good ideas to life Ne Heroes have a sense of heroism when seeking new knowledge, new options, new possibilities for change, new opportunities for improvement or progress - Se : The Power of Action : Oriented to the present and its opportunities Se Heroes have a sense of heroism when seeking the mental state of “flow” or being “in the zone" - Si : The Power of Rituals : Oriented to the past and its importance Si Heroes have a sense of heroism when seeking out familiarity, stability, consistency, security, rituals Differences between Hero Functions : I define social relationships :- Ni Hero : in terms of realizing “ideals” (how people live up to their latent potential)- Se Hero : in terms of “doing” (experiencing and sharing activities together)- Si Hero : in terms of faithfully acting in accordance with one’s roles or societal station- Ne Hero : in terms of potential (what two people can bring into the relationship to create something new/better)- Ti Hero : in terms of “workability” (experimenting with the impact of behaviors to figure out the best actions)- Te Hero : in terms of “shoulds” (each person living up to their clearly defined responsibilities)- Fi Hero : in terms of “fluidity” (each individual bringing whatever they can of themselves whenever they can)- Fe Hero : in terms of fulfilling promises, duties, and obligations to one anotherI feel the most nurtured :- Ni Hero : by making visual representations- Se Hero : through full physical participation in tasks- Si Hero : by integrating new impressions with past ones- Ne Hero : through extrapolating “what could be”- Ti Hero : by looking at how components fit together to form a whole- Te Hero : by observing cause and effect in an analytical manner- Fi Hero : by unifying new sensory impressions with an individual sense of "good" or "bad"- Fe Hero : by seeing how people interact with one another Type of motivations : - Ni Hero : I'm motivated by a desire to find meaning, insight, wisdom, and knowledge - Se Hero : I'm pushed to seek the mental state of “flow” or being “in the zone" - Si Hero : I'm attracted to familiarity, stability, consistency, safety, and rituals - Ne Hero : I'm always looking for new knowledge, new options, new possibilities for change, new opportunities for improvement or progress - Ti Hero : I'm motivated to solve problems in a logical way - Te Hero : I'm motivated to lay a solid foundation of order and stability - Fi Hero : I'm motivated to keep a strong sense of personal integrity (by aligning the internal and external worlds whenever possible) - Fe Hero : I'm motivated to create a stable social system/structureType of choices : - Ni Hero : I make choices by extrapolating future consequences - Se Hero : I make decisions based on immediate events or feedback - Si Hero : Personal priorities, passions, and responsibilities guide my choices - Ne Hero : I make choices based on which option appears to be the most promising - Ti Hero : I make decisions based on probabilities that I estimate (calculated risks) - Te Hero : I make choices in the pursuit of coherent, successful, and efficient outcomes - Fi Hero : I make choices based on the preservation of inner harmony (thoughts, opinions, beliefs, feelings, etc.) and the application of personal values to appreciate and care for others - Fe Hero : I make sensible choices that help to maintain social harmony (I don't decide based on personal sentiment)

- There is no personality test on the internet that can find your type accurately but it can give you some clues - The best method is to learn the system - You need first to learn to find the type of the others before finding yours- The first step would be to recognize the dominant function on the others. The easiest approach is to recognize the extraverted dominant functions : Fe doms / Te doms / Se doms / Ne doms- You have the description of each dominant functions in the general index- Keep in mind that this knowledge is not perfect but it gives a ground of common patterns- See yourself like a Craftsman while learning it, it takes time with a lot of trial and error Personality Test : "When I met Jung, he told me to be true to myself, and true to my type. And that is what I wish for you. If you go against your typological makeup, you go against your grain, and you will get splinters. Go with it, and your life will have ease, flow, and purpose."- Robert A Johnson

The words "spirit" and "soul" are often used interchangeably, let's try to define them with our Code :Some definitions of the word "Soul" :- "Your soul is the part of you that consists of your mind, character, thoughts, and feelings." - Collins Dictionary- "The principle of life, feeling, thought, and action in humans, regarded as a distinct entity separate from the body, and commonly held to be separable in existence from the body; the spiritual part of humans as distinct from the physical part." - Dictionary.com- "A person's total self" - Merriam Webster- "Your soul is the immaterial essence and totality of who you are at a core level – it is your true nature. As all of life at its core is energy, a soul is the whole of this energy." - Lonerwolf.comIn our case, what we define as a "Soul" in its common use, would be a "Type", so the 16 Types are basically 16 Types of Souls made of 8 Archetypes and 8 Energies.Some definitions of the word "Spirit" :- "Spirit is the courage and determination that helps people to survive in difficult times and to keep their way of life and their beliefs." - Collins Dictionary- "The force within a person that is believed to give the body life, energy, and power." - Merriam Webster- "The spirit is our deeper connection with the Lord when we believe in God" - Christianity.com- "The vital principle or animating force within living things" - Definitions.netIn our case, what we define as a "Spirit" in its common use, would be the Ni energy, being the energy of our willpower, intentions, wishes and access to the unconscious.

Symbolism : - Windmill as a symbol of the movement of transformation from one state of consciousness to a higher state of consciousness. - Windmills are also the universal symbol of life, serenity, resilience, self-sufficiency, and perseverance in a harsh environment. - The wind is a symbol of the spirit, the vital breath of the universe. It is powerful, invisible, but evident by its effects on matter. - Air is the Great Provider of life ~ our human vital breathing system, the powerful air that manifested creation into being. It is also connected to wisdom, the higher mind/mind, and the Spirit of the Soul.In relation with the Hero Code :- The Air and the Wind is associated with the Ni energy which is the willpower, the spirit, the direction, the wish and intention- The mechanical transformation is associated with the Te energy which is related with the ability to produce & manage- The Grindstones converting wheat grain into flour, is associated with Si energy being converted from raw Si to granular Si, meaning : the self-awareness bringed by Ni energy help reprocess sensory informations (Si) in a more granular way

8 Archetypes

Conscious

Unconscious

HERO Function(Other name : Dominant Function)Energy signature:- "Save the World" attitude- Sense of heroism and determined- When we shift into leading the charge mode- Complete confidence in the rightness of the action or position- Define main perspective about life- Sense of competence and potential mastery “The thing that is 'too much' about me is typically my superpower. The thing that people want you to quell, the thing that they want you to be less of, it's typically the thing that you are gifted at."- Luvvie Ajayi Jones Videos:

PARENT Function(Other names : Auxiliary/Mother-Father Function)This is your second strongest function. It supports your Hero function. It's helpful to think that together the first two functions account for ~ 90% of your personality.Energy signature :- Supportive, nurturing, positive-enabling and protective- Serious and proud- “Protects” the Child from naively “going along with the Hero”Negative expression :- Over-protective or too permissive, patronizing, teaching or “parenting” Videos:

CHILD Function(Other names : Tertiary/Relief/Eternal Child Function)The tertiary or “child” function is one that we often use in a playful, exploratory, creative way.The tertiary function is often called the “relief” function by typologists and that’s because we can enjoy using it to relax, calm down, and take the pressure off of our often overused dominant or auxiliary functions.Energy signature :- Playful, silly, irresponsible, and vulnerable- Naively supports the ‘Hero’ & is looked after by the ‘Parent’- We experience the main JOY in our life with this functionNegative expression :- Tends to manifest in manic cycles : one minute, the “king of the world,” and the next, a withdrawn and timid “wounded child”. Feels limitless and arrogant. "Me for example, I have a Ti Child, I like to play with logics and theories, specially the Hero Code ..."- Sloth Alchemist Videos:

INFERIOR or PERFECTIONIST Function(Other names : Anima/Animus - Inferiority complex - Aspirational Function) The inferior function is intrinsically linked to the dominant function. We often suppress this function or try to hide it because we know we can’t use it effectively most of the time. It is often a source of shame and it may take a great deal of time before we feel comfortable using it consciously. We tend to admire people who use this function well, but personally we often find using this function “a waste of time”. Energy signature: - Source of shame & incompetency & incapacity / Waste of time / Avoidance - Perfectionism / Black & White approach - Typically where a type’s fear & vanity exists- When aspiring, a type learns to become “happy” once fear is conquered- People who suppress the inferior function for most of their lives become one-sided, imbalanced, and unhealthy.- Shows up in judgments you make about others- Covered with a persona to not expose inferiorities / inauthentic behaviors- Primary point of access between the unconscious and conscious- Hold the secret key to the unconscious totality of the person- Once conquered bring a deep sense of completeness and authenticity "Release the shame, bro ! Don’t trade authenticity for approval” - Sloth Alchemist Videos:

OPPOSING ROLE or SKEPTIC Function(Other names : Nemesis/Anti-Hero Function)If you think of the dominant function as your “hero”, then you can imagine the opposing role as the snarky, would-be usurper to the hero. The opposing role “shadows” your dominant function, calling out doubts, opposition, and passive-aggressive remarks.The opposing role may cause you to doubt your dominant function’s goals or viewpoints. It also may be what you use when you become argumentative or lash out at someone or something that feels threatening to your ego.Energy signature:- When other people use that same function (even in a positive way) we can risk seeing them as being oppositional, passive-aggressive, or having hidden motives.- The Hero keeps it at distance to not be disturbed Videos:

WITCH or CRITIC Function(Other names : Critical Parent/Senex Function) The critical parent function shadows the auxiliary parent function. In contrast to the “parental” second function that nurtures and protects, the critical parent belittles, inactivates, and humiliates. It calls out our shortcomings and failures and rejects our ideas. This function can be directed inwards towards us, or directed or projected at others.Energy signature:- Guilt & Toxic Shame - The critical parent is hyper-critical and limit setting. It belittles and inactivates the self or others. Its criticisms are often harsh and crippling, involving humiliation, ridicule, and with indifference to the well-being of the personality. - The Critic lacks the governing mechanism of consciousness to ensure that it’s only used appropriately. Its criticisms are often humiliating and crippling.- The Critic pushes the Parent to be more responsible Videos:

TRICKSTER Function(Other names : Bad Child/Blindspot/PoLR Function)The trickster shadows the tertiary Child function. In contrast to the innocent, vulnerable, and playful “child”, the trickster is sly, malicious, shape-shifting, and deceptive. He is both good and bad. He is determined to protect “the eternal child” from attacks from other people, but he can also create so much chaos in the process that conflict arises in a relationship or the self. Using the trickster function feels uncomfortable, confusing, and disquieting. When using this function we tend to “trap” people in double-binds. We may find that we’re disrespecting rules or boundaries or being manipulative in ways that don’t feel “right” or relatable to us.The Trickster is, above all, a catalyst for individuation. In this, the trickster is both destroyer and creator. It breaks down self-limiting structures, creating disorder, in order to open up new options that lead to a new order.Energy signature :- Sly, malicious, shape-shifting, and deceptive- Meant to let complete freedom to the Child Function to thrive Videos:

DEMON or SABOTEUR FunctionThe demon is essentially our inferior’s inferior function. It feels the most “other” of all our functions and our failures in this area tend to be the most undermining. We may struggle with relating to people who use this function in the dominant position, because our experiences with it are so negative and because we don’t connect with it consciously except in very rare, disquieting cases. We may project “the demon” onto other people who are using this function in an obvious way. It’s important to recognize when you’re projecting this function so you don’t misunderstand or demonize others for using a function in a normal/healthy way.The Demon is what we need to be ashamed of-the flaw in our character for which integrity exists and is neededEnergy signature :- Undermining & Sabotaging- The Demon wants to weaken the Hero through the Inferior Videos:

What's an Archetype ? An archetype is “a universal and recurring image, pattern, or motif representing a typical human experience.”Video: What is an Archetype?To visualize how archetypes and cognitive functions express themselves we will use the term "FPS", meaning :"Frame rate (expressed in frames per second or FPS) is the frequency (rate) at which consecutive images called frames appear on a display. The term applies equally to film and video cameras, computer graphics, and motion capture systems. Frame rate may also be called the frame frequency, and be expressed in hertz" "We will use my type as example. To visualize, we took 100 fps for the Hero function and 1 fps for the Demon function, it shows broadly the time spent by each functions to express themselves."- Sloth Alchemist

The Hero's Journey

Sloth Alchemist's Journey

Soul Alchemy

Universal Hero's Journey :In The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Joseph Campbell, a professor of literature at Sarah Lawrence College, unpacks his theory that all mythological narratives share the same basic structure. He refers to this structure as the “monomyth,” or hero’s journey. Campbell summarizes it like this:“A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man.”The 17 steps of the monomyth are grouped into three main categories :Departure. In brief, the hero is living in the so-called “ordinary world” when he receives a call to adventure. Usually, the hero is unsure of following this call—known as the “refusal of the call”—but is then helped by a mentor figure, who gives him counsel and convinces him to follow the call.Initiation. In the initiation section, the hero enters the “special world,” where he must begin facing a series of tasks until he reaches the climax of the story—the main obstacle or enemy. Here, the hero must put into practice everything he has learned on his journey to overcome the obstacle. Campbell talks about the hero attaining some kind of prize for his troubles—this can be a physical token or “elixir”, or just good, old-fashioned wisdom. (Or both.)Return. Feeling like he is ready to go back to his world, the hero must now leave. Once back in the ordinary world, he undergoes a personal metamorphosis in the realization of how his adventure has changed him as a person.Specific Hero's Journey :John Beebe's work on the 16 types shows that each type has its own specific hero's journey beside the universal one. Structured by its 8 archetypes : Hero/Parent/Child/Inferior/Opp. Role/Critic/Trickster/Demon, the journey is meant to develop & bring in awareness each archetypes/energies of the type. What is the Hero's Journey?

The Sloth Alchemist is an INFJ, meaning : He wants to provide insights/a vision to fulfill/visualization (Ni Hero) that can improve the well-being of others (Fe Parent) with a logical and scientific approach (Ti Child) and once provided carefully (Se Inf.),it will increase his sense of being a person with integrity (Fi Critic)His energies are as follow :- Ni Hero : He is heroic with a vision that he wants to fulfill :"I want to improve co-creation between the 16 heroes (types)" - Sloth Alchemist- Fe Parent : He is responsible with the well-being of people :"More the Hero Code will be known, popular and shared, more it will improve :- Parenting- Organisations- Education- Well-being- Honesty, Trust and Goodwill" - Sloth Alchemist- Ti Child : He is playful and restless with his logic, his truth and with the Hero Code that he wants to spread :"The potential of this language is endless, it can totally make the world a better place.The real revolution is the evolution of consciousness" - Sloth Alchemist

Soul Alchemy

INFJs are healers of the heart, having the heart (Fi) taken by the archetype of the Witch/Critic, their purpose is to find a way to heal it. The main dynamic of the INFJ's inner world is to find a tool that make them able to visualize (Ni) a system (Ti) that can heal/calm their heart (Fi) and their nervous system (Si). They are looking for a tool that explain an energetic logical dynamic (Ni Ti) of the heart (Fi). The John Beebe's Model is one of them. They deeply sense how an understanding (Ti) can heal the heart (Fi).The main line of the INFJ Hero's Journey is about experiencing trauma or a psychological crisis, to find a systemic tool to heal it and to bring this tool to the world, what the Sloth Alchemist has done.

This knowledge is the Ultimate Boon the Sloth Alchemist aquired during his journey. He also discovered that Ni heroes (INFJs or INTJs) have the ability to become Soul Alchemists, Ni energy being related with spirit, intuition and exploration of the unconscious, they believe in the power of spirit above all else. (All types have their own capacity for inner transformation but for Ni heroes this is a essential ability)What is a Soul Alchemist ?The practice of the alchemical arts has its origin in the second or third century BCE in Greece. It spread through the ancient Near and Far East. In the most basic understanding, alchemy has always been about transformation and remains so in the psychological theory of Carl Jung. The name, alchemy, in fact, derives from the Arabic al-kimia meaning the art of transformation.Carl Jung’s ideas:- One of the purposes of every human being is to become free and to nurture their individuality. However, to do so, one had to decode each symbol of the subconscious.- Alchemy is a personal journey of transformation and an instinctive impulse for growth.- People with an inflexible mind and a consciousness that focuses merely on objectives, material things, and the observable will have a limited life.- Alchemy arise from many of your unresolved psychic elements. You must delve deep into that alchemical darkness where your shadows meet in order to bring them back to light. Every transformation requires effort, open-mindedness, and creativity."The alchemists were not projecting personal unconscious material about their repressed childhood wishes and traumas. They were revealing the most fundamental patterns of psychological transformation, which apply to human beings universally."— Murray SteinAlchemy’s greatest achievement is to create a relationship between our inner world and our outer world. While physical alchemy deals with altering and transforming the properties within matter, soul alchemy is connected with freeing your spirit from your fears, limiting beliefs systems, and lack of self-acceptance. Alchemy is the art of transformation, inner liberation, and change.

SOUL ALCHEMIST’S CREED Ni Hero rules : - I believe in the power of my spirit above all else - I observe, develop & trust my intuition, insights & direction everyday - I commit myself to develop & fulfill a vision for the greater good - I bring simple solutions for complex life issues for allChild Archetype rules :- I cherish & protect my inner child, whatever it takesSe Perfectionist rules :- I believe in divine timing, that everything in my life happens at exactly the right moment / The Universe always works in perfect balance- I respect my actions & responses and the ones of others- I keep actions flowing even if they seem purposeless- I respect my body, I take time to recharge in nature and I develop my physical strength everyday- I respect the reality and the world as it is- I do what for me is right & stay true to myself and others- My 5 senses & short-term memory get overloaded easily, I take time to meditate to process the overflow of stimuli each time it happensWitch/Critic rules :- I commit myself to stay strong in front of my witch/criticSi Demon/Saboteur rules :- I make peace with this archetype and I don't let it having power over my Ni Hero- I work on breaking negative patterns within and around me- I trust that the path I am on is the path I am meant to be on- Si Demon means: Self (Si) - Sabotage (Demon). I will bring in awareness and break self-sabotaging behaviors

INTJs are healers of the mind, having the mind (Ti) taken by the archetype of the Witch/Critic, their purpose is to find a way to heal it. The main dynamic of the INTJ's inner world is to find a personal creative expression that make them able to translate their visions (Ni) in a unique creative form that comes from their heart (Fi), it would heal/calm their mind (Ti) and their nervous system (Si).They deeply sense how a creative expression (Fi) can heal the mind (Ti).The main line of the INTJ Hero's Journey is about experiencing trauma or a psychological crisis, to find a personal creative expression to heal it and to bring these creations to the world.

The Shield :Fe Parent : I am responsible with The Laser : Fi Critic : I am critical about The Critic pushes the Parent to be more responsible.If the Parent is not enough responsible, the Critic will lower the INFJ's sense of being a moral person (Fi)(meaning : feeling immoral) The Good Side of Fi Critic :Fi can help you to slow down, quiet your mind, and center yourself on your own values and feelings. Rather than being pushed and pulled by other people’s emotional needs, it can help you to stop and say “No,” assess what your emotions are telling you, and what really matters to you on an individual level. The Potential Negative Sides of Fi Critic :Your Fi Critic can show up when you are feeling ashamed, vulnerable, extremely irritable, or defensive. When you have failed to stand up for yourself, when you have betrayed one of your own values, or when you see others acting in a way that you see as unethical, it can show up in internal or external criticisms like : “What kind of person are you? How could you do something so wrong?” “You are being so phony. Why can’t you just be yourself?” “Why do these groups lack a conscience? What is wrong with them?” “You’ll never be good enough” “You’re worse than other people” “Because of (past moral failing) you’ll never amount to anything.” Because your ego doesn’t naturally accept the shadow side of your personality, you may be blind to your Critic tendencies. It may take time and reflection before you realize that this Critic side has any place in your life. As an INFJ your Critic is Introverted in direction, therefore the criticisms are often internalized or directed at yourself. You might be much more critical and harsh on the inside than anyone ever sees on the outside. You may struggle to forgive yourself for ethical shortcomings and may replay your moral failures over and over again in a way that makes you feel limited and unable to move forward. You might also find yourself getting annoyed by expressions of Fi, saying or thinking things like: “Why are you putting your own feelings above the feelings of everyone else?” “Why can’t you just get on board with what everyone needs?” “Why are you so selfish?” “Why can’t you just share your feelings with me?

When they respect this process, they can think and act in more consistent ways, become more investigative, and articulate the operating principles at play in a situation much more easily. They will take less shortcuts to complete their plans, slowing down and checking for more thorough logical consistency. The Potential Negative Sides of Ti Critic :Negative Ti Critic can show up when you’re feeling ashamed, vulnerable, defensive, or extremely irritable. If someone negates your plan or vision, you might criticize their logical framework and try to dismiss their lack of nuanced comprehension. You can turn this criticism inward, towards yourself, as well. You might, internally or externally, berate, dismiss, or criticize, saying things like: “Don’t you see how this framework is constructed? How could you miss something so obvious!” “How could you miss this technical principle? What’s wrong with you?” “If you’d only looked at the logical construction of this plan, you’d have seen all these errors. But you were in too much of a hurry.

Example of an ISFJ in its Hero's Journey : Clara Barton Clarissa Harlowe Barton, known as Clara, is one of the most honored women in American history. Barton risked her life to bring supplies and support to soldiers in the field during the Civil War. She founded the American Red Cross in 1881, at age 59, and led it for the next 23 years. Her understanding of the ways she could provide help to people in distress guided her throughout her life. By the force of her personal example, she opened paths to the new field of volunteer service. Her intense devotion to serving others resulted in enough achievements to fill several ordinary lifetimes. Clara Barton was an ISFJ, meaning:She was providing safety and expertise (Si Hero) to improve the well-being of others (Fe Parent)Clara Barton was working in the U.S. Patent Office in Washington, DC when the Civil War began. Like many women, she helped collect bandages and other much-needed supplies, but she soon realized that she could best support the troops by going in person to the battlefields. Throughout many major battles of the war, she nursed, comforted and cooked for the wounded, earning the nickname the “Angel of the Battlefield.”Away from the intense action of Civil War battles, Barton suffered from depression. In early 1864, the lack of activity, combined with an inability to secure a supply warehouse (Si Hero Fail), got the better of her. “All the world appears selfish and treacherous. I can get no hold on a good noble sentiment any where. I have scanned over and over the whole moral horizon and it is all dark,” she wrote. (Fi Critic statement). She thought about killing herself, and it wasn’t the first time. What brought her out of it was having purpose again, notes Barton biographer Elizabeth Brown Pryor in Clara Barton : Professional Angel. Pryor suggests that Barton thrived in scenarios that others would run from.

Example of an ISTJ in its Hero's Journey : Angela Merkel There may be times when the ISTJ’s honesty and straightforward logic may make them seem cold and calculated. Moreover, their nature tells them to follow the path to efficiency even if they have to forgo some niceties in the process. Up until now, they may not sound like a very charming political leader, right?Well, that may be correct, but an ISTJ is a person you call when you want to get the job done, even if things end up with a few ruffled feathers. Due to their high organization skills and strong desire to fulfill their duty, the ISTJ personality type can be the tough but just leader the world needs.This behavior and the fact that they care for rules and regulations usually puts them in administrative leadership positions. Moreover, since an ISTJ’s attention is not easily persuaded by personal gain (they have a strong sense of duty and morals), they can do a lot of good for the masses when in a position of power. Therefore, the ISTJ is one of the MBTI types that feels comfortable in the political field, where they can put that logical mind and straightforward honesty to good use.One great example of an ISTJ political figure is Angela Merkel, the Chancellor of Germany since 2005, who was ranked by Forbes magazine as the second-most powerful person in the world in 2013. She is known to be decisive, honest, and deeply logical (all defining ISTJ personality traits). Moreover, she is the de facto leader of the European Union and managed to solve a wide range of crises with tact and steely reserve.In true ISTJ manner, Angela has a doctorate in physical chemistry and is proficient in Russian and Mathematics. She also cares about her obligations and works hard to perform her duties to the best possible standards.

Example of an ISTP in its Hero's Journey : Wim Hof Wim Hof also known as The Iceman, is a Dutch extreme athlete noted for his ability to withstandfreezing temperatures. He has set Guinness World Records for swimming under ice and prolongedfull-body contact with ice, and previously held the record for a barefoot half marathon on ice and snow.He attributes these feats to his Wim Hof Method (WHM), a combination of frequent cold exposure, breathing techniques, yoga and meditation.Wim Hof is an ISTP, meaning: he improves the body and the experience of others (Se) with a method based on his intuitive logic (Ti Ni) of how the nervous system works (Si)He developed his Method by facing his Si Critic (his nervous system) by exposing his Se (his body) in extreme conditions Website extract : What "The Iceman" Wim Hof is capable of was long viewed as scientifically impossible. It wasn't until the first Radboud University study in 2011 that things really kicked off.The study showed that by using his method, Wim was able to voluntarily influence his autonomic nervous system - something which until then was thought impossible. This ground-breaking finding, published in PNAS and Nature, established credibility, quite literally rewrote biology textbooks and piqued scientists' curiosity.Since then, many researchers have taken an interest in the potential benefits of the Wim Hof Method. Today, Wim and his team continue to work with research institutions and various promising studies are currently underway.

They believe that actions speak louder than words and are good at leading the charge when the chips are down. At their best, they love a new experience and seek to achieve peak “in the zone” performance, often found doing physically expressive/challenging activities.- Immature ESFPs display the negative aspects of Se due to taking the desire for positive sensation to unhealthy extremes. They tend to be indulgent, impetuous, evasive/negligent, and superficial, lacking the intellectual curiosity that would spur personal growth.- Learning : ESFPs, while learning, address the question, “Am I enjoying this ?”

Example of an ESFP in its Hero's Journey : Will Smith Willard Carroll Smith Jr. (born September 25, 1968) is an American actor, rapper, and film producer.Smith has been nominated for five Golden Globe Awards and two Academy Awards, and has won fourGrammy Awards.Will Smith is an ESFP, meaning : he took a life direction (Ni) that gives entertaining experiences to others (Se), in line with his values, his individuality (Fi). Quotes : "If you’re not making someone else’s life better, then you’re wasting your time. Your life will become better by making other lives better.” (Fe Critic statement) “I want to be the person that is the first person there and the last person to leave. That's who I want to be, because I think the road to success is through commitment, and through the strength to drive through that commitment when it gets hard. And it is going to get hard and you're going to want to quit sometimes, but it'll be colored by who you are, and more who you want to be.” (Ni Perfectionist & Fi Parent statement)“I've never really viewed myself as particularly talented; where I excel is in a ridiculous, sickening work ethic. While the other guy is sleeping, I'm working. While the other guy is eating, I'm working.” (Restless Te Child statement)“I want to represent the idea that you really can make what you want … I believe I can create whatever I want to create.” (Ni Perfectionist statement)

The Shield :Fi Parent : I am responsible with The Laser : Fe Critic : I am critical about The Critic pushes the Parent to be more responsible.If the Parent is not enough responsible, the Critic will lower the ESFP's sense of being an empathic person (Fe)(meaning : feeling uncaring) The Good Side of Fe Critic : Fe Critic can help you to have a stronger sense of the needs and values of the people around you. It can help to broaden your views, take in other people’s needs, and assess group and societal values to determine whether they are valuable for yourself or others. You become more expressive of your feelings and feel a stronger sense of unity and mutual support with others. The Potential Negative Sides of Fe Critic :When you feel vulnerable, attacked, cranky, or ashamed your Critic might show up in belittling or harsh remarks towards yourself or others. You might chastise yourself or others for failures at Fe (responding to group needs, respecting societal values, demonstrating feeling values outwardly). You might have intrusive thoughts like: “You never think of anyone but yourself,” “You had to make everything awkward, didn’t you?” “You’re such a weirdo,” “You’ll never fit in.” You also might find yourself getting annoyed by expressions of Fe, saying or thinking things like: “Why do you have to be so worried about what everyone else wants? Don’t you have any of your own values.” “Why are you such a people pleaser? It’s like you don’t even know yourself.” “Stop trying to make me conform to your group values!” “You can’t control me or tell me how to feel!” read more

When this happens, you become uncharacteristically gloomy and distant. Rather than enjoying what life has to offer you suddenly see nothing but a negative future ahead of you. You can see nothing but darkness and confusion and, as a result, you may detach from the activities you’d normally enjoy.
