PSYCHOLOGY SESSION

We’re talking about the first Intrapsychic conflict!

Dependency vs. Individuation

This conflict expresses itself over the course of one’s life through the recurring themes of *having to be alone* versus *having to be together*.

Similar to how people speak about chakras as being “excessive” or “deficient”, each conflict has an active and a passive mode, indicating how an individual deals with the questions life offers regarding a specific theme (here: dependency vs. individuation).

The passive mode experiences the conflict as something that happens to you; the active mode experiences it as something you make happen yourself.

e.g. Someone who stays in an unhappy relationship because being alone feels unbearable (passive), versus someone who ends relationships as soon as they start feeling ‘too close,’ before they can become dependent on anyone (active).

For a more detailed description read the comment section 😈

Are you currently leaning towards the active or the passive pole ?

PSYCHOLOGY SESSION
🧘‍♀️ Your yoga mat might be THE place to meet your inner conflicts.

In psychodynamic psychotherapy, diagnostics don’t start with the symptom. A symptom isn’t a malfunction, it’s the visible tip of an unconscious inner conflict that’s currently active enough to cause real suffering.

Many depth psychologists work with a set of core conflicts defined by the OPD (Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnostics), grounded in psychoanalytic theory and backed by empirical research.

These conflicts have shaped my therapeutic work profoundly. Over the next few weeks, I want to introduce each one to you here and show you how we can actually work with them in Yoga.

The 7 core conflicts:
 1️⃣ Dependency vs. Individuation 2️⃣ Submission vs. Control 3️⃣ Need for Care vs. Self-Sufficiency 4️⃣ Self-Worth Conflict 5️⃣ Guilt Conflict 6️⃣ Oedipal Conflict 7️⃣ Identity Conflict

The important part: every one of these conflicts is relevant to every human being. It’s never a question of whether a conflict exists, only HOW each of us resolves these life themes in our own way.
Suffering shows up when our old solutions stop working.

And this is what I love about yoga. It offers both things at once. Awareness of which inner conflicts are currently wrestling inside us and the freedom to respond differently *here and now* than we once did back *there and then*.

📆 I’ll introduce each conflict, every week. Send me your questions, I’d love to hear your own experiences

All roads lead to rome!
For each smile, there came a tear before.
As somebody that undertook a decade of serious learning within the clinical realm of psychology and as a serious student and teacher of yoga all the same - I’m so grateful for every courageous inquiry by these teachers in our 300h advanced yoga teacher training.
And more so, I’m incredibly grateful to marlene for trusting me and my perspective over and over again!
With each class, with each training, with each meeting, with all of you - my perspective is fertilized, expanded and forever changed.

Thank you Harshvardhan Jhaveri for yours, Yoga on the Move for being real and Dania Anna for your companionship and these fabulous analogues 🫶

After 11 years of study and clinical training, I’ve completed my education in psychodynamic psychotherapy.
My path included a B.Sc. in Psychology, an M.Sc. in Clinical Psychology and 5 years of specialized psychodynamic training with clinical work focused on addiction, anxiety, and personality disorders.

Alongside this journey, yoga has remained a constant companion.

Over time, I realized that yoga and psychoanalysis are not opposing worlds, they are two different languages describing human suffering, transformation, relationship, and freedom.

Psychoanalysis taught me how deeply unconscious patterns shape our lives.
Yoga taught me that beneath these movements of mind and identity, there is also the possibility of inner freedom.

In my teaching I’m interested in the relationship between body, psyche, breath, unconscious patterns and awareness.
How we carry our histories in the body. How relationship shapes nervous system and identity. How attention changes experience. How embodiment can create possibility for transformation.

This page will continue to explore these intersections: between yoga and psychoanalysis, between Eastern and Western understandings of human development, between movement and meaning, between self-regulation and self-inquiry, between grounding and freedom.

Thank you for being here.
X, Nora

After a winter of deep study immersed in casework and honing my skills I feel truly grateful for the journey so far. This year, I’m bringing my passion for both yoga and psychoanalysis into full alignment.

I’m excited to announce I’ll be teaching a 200-hour training, a 300-hour training, and a digital detox yoga retreat called TIME OFF with .move
Find all about it on their website!

Plus, I’ll continue my regular classes:

💫Slow & Deep on Friday 5 p.m.

I can’t wait to dive deeper with you: in class, training, or retreat, as we explore movement, mind, and depth together. Here’s to a year of learning together!

Since you asked…
So many of you have asked me to share my Sp***** Playlist with you, as you loved the songs that made our Flow so enjoyable.
I love the artists and the music they make, so here are all the songs I’m currently playing. If you like them, please consider to support the artist directly and buy their music instead of using this exploitative streaming service ;) xx Love to yoke with you!

“What are your eyes doing right now?” When a teacher asked this question during asana practice a few years ago it hit me like lightning - I was looking around, letting my gaze wander, my eyes were wildly busy. These eye movements were directly impacting my busy mind and subsequently my thoughts were making my eyes wander even more.
“Keep your gaze steady. Wherever your eyes go, let it have meaning” the teacher said. And when I chose to gaze at my navel or the tip of my nose or the palm of my hand, with intention but with gentleness too, there it was - Concentration, dharana. I was given the tool to create capacity of experiencing the shape, not just executing it. This tool is Drishti दृष्टि.

Come and practice with me online and offline - schedule in bio 🤍
