Mindfulness Based Psychic Conflict Neutralization就是我所说的“无碍”。
无碍就是将我们所面对到的psychic conflict(心理冲突)化解,而不是用defenses mechanisms 来面对。Defense mechanisms只是我们用错误的方式来化解psychic conflict。真正能用mindfulness来化解psychic conflict才是我想要表达的“无碍”。
Mindfulness-Based Psychic Conflict Neutralization refers to the use of mindfulness practices to recognize, hold, and ultimately reduce the distress cause by internal psychic conflict---without relying on unconscious defenses mechanisms. Instead of avoiding or automatically neutralizing the conflict, mindfulness allows for non-judgmental observation and acceptance of conflicting internal experience.
Key Principle:
1.Decentering: Observing thoughts and feelings as mental events rather than facts. This reduces identification with either side of the conflict. Example: “I notice the urge to lash out, and I also notice guilt about that urge.”
2.Nonjudgmental Awareness: Accepting that conflicting thoughts or feelings can coexist without needing to act on or resolve them immediately. Example: “Holding space for both the desire for autonomy and the need for closeness.
3.Present-Moment focus: Reduces rumination, which often fuel psychic conflict. Example: Instead of getting caught in cycles of “what I should’ve done,” attention is returned to the breath or bodily sensations.
4.Self-Compassion: Helps soothe the emotional suffering tied to internal conflict by softening harsh self-criticism (often a manifestation of superego pressure).
5.Increased Ego Strength: Mindfulness promotes a more observing, integrated self-enhancing the ego’s ability to tolerate and integrate opposing drives.
Clinical Example:
A patient feels torn between staying in a demanding caregiving role (out of duty/guilt---Superego) and pursuing their own goals (out of personal desire---Id). Rather than immediately suppressing one side (e.g., through rationalization---defense mechanism), mindfulness helps them:
• Recognize both motivations without judgment.
• Sit with the discomfort of the ambivalence.
• Eventually respond with clarity and values-based action
