*1-1 Mentorship Information: Price & Structure (Maximum Capacity = 20 Clients Per Year)* It's an absolute pleasure to film these KZfaq videos, and I feel fortunate to receive an abundance of meaningful messages every week, but I am unfortunately faced with the disappointing reality of turning away the vast majority of people who want to work together. I have significantly limited availability and can only support twenty people per year because I do not offer one-off calls or drop-in consulting sessions. Twenty individuals might not sound like maximum capacity, but the last few years of teaching have taught me the importance of maintaining tight energetic boundaries if I want to keep uploading these free videos in addition to serving my current clients to the best of my ability in 2024. To minimise confusion and enhance transparency, I've spent several hours writing this ridiculously long comment to help you decide if my Inner Work Mentorship is the right choice for your development & what you could reasonably expect from working closely together. Please take the time to read this service description before contacting me on Instagram… or feel free to stop reading right now if you’re not interested in my fees, session structure, client expectations, etc. ... *READ BEFORE SCROLLING FURTHER:* I'm interested in long-term change and structural transformation, which is why I've never offered one-off sessions. Complex issues cannot be resolved in a few hours, but we likewise need to define an upper limit for containment and collaboration. I've learned that deep and enduring self-integration requires at least four months of immersive effort. Why four months? It's enough weekly contact for us to work through multiple complex issues and developmental possibilities, but short enough to mitigate against unconscious co-dependency and motivational stagnation. I'm currently accepting a maximum of two new clients per month - message me after reading the following section to check my availability. ... *HOW I WORK & WHO I WORK WITH* Unlike other coaches and teachers who take an understandably more relaxed approach to healing and integration, my mentorships are characteristically intense. This is a highly-demanding, high-investment process which requires our consistent combined effort over a period of four months. If we were to start working together, I would reasonably expect you to be excited to show up for a minimum of 10+ hours of self-motivated transformative practice per week (daily reading, fitness routine, creative exercises, spiritual reflection, etc.) while also maintaining full-sobriety (no drink, no drugs, no cigarettes, no vapes). These strict standards of discipline and sobriety are plainly unsuitable for most people in most situations - even genuinely motivated individuals who resonate with my KZfaq videos may not be the right match for four months of structured mentorship. If you want to get deeper, I've noticed that there's a certain type of ‘temperament' & 'timing’ to get the most out of me. I'm interested in alert, creative and purpose-driven individuals who aspire to exceptional standards of self-maturation and would enjoy the feeling of going through week-on-week of progressively stacked transformative experiences for a third of a year: my ideal client is somebody who is willing to bring forward their internal complexity with a sense of courage and transparency with the intention of nothing less than full-spectrum transformation & rapid acceleration on their personal path. I am yet to discover another supportive figure who offers something comparable to this mentorship: a four-month, structured yet flexible 1-1 container which is simultaneously therapeutic, academic and action-oriented; with primary focus placed on tangible improvements in your felt sense of self-knowledge and self-integration; in addition to making consistent and meaningful progress towards your unique goals and mentorship aspirations. I prioritise contact, compassion and accountability, which means that your work never really 'ends' at the end of your session. You can reasonably expect to be fed dozens of customised reading suggestions and follow-on perspectives outside of the formal sessions via friendly and informal messenger contact, where I am active and available four days per week to cultivate an intimate personal connection while likewise enhancing your positive momentum via accountability check-ins and additional support as required. By way of conclusion for what feels like an extraordinarily long comment and service description, I feel compelled to once more emphasise that working directly with me is unrealistic for most people in most situations. I often support people who are accustomed to wrestling with the emotional challenges associated with working through complex wounds in previous therapeutic relationships before we begin our coaching work together. Even individuals without 'hard trauma' can expect moments of pressurised darkness and heaviness during periods of shadow contact as you begin to restructure your personal unconscious. We will be exploring your psyche and soma at scale and depth, and it will be your responsibility to keep me informed about the emotional texture of your internal reality, especially if you encounter negatively charged experiences, and I will of course do everything in my power to support you through the hard times as we integrate the darkness and move forwards together. KZfaq is a wonderful place for me to share free research resources and offer accessible inner work invitations; my private mentorships, however, are the place for collaborative partnership and emotional security as we identify, navigate and restructure oftentimes confronting and challenging conscious and unconscious physical, emotional and mental material. Ultimately, this is a highly-demanding but highly-rewarding process which requires the best of our shared intentions. ... *SESSION STRUCTURE & FEES:* The total fee for an Inner Work Mentorship (including 12 x 2 hr sessions) is £7,400 GBP or approximately $9,400 USD. This is my only coaching programme, and my mentorship pricing is liable to adjustment over time. Each private session lasts two hours, and is facilitated via Telegram video call at an ideal time for both of us. Your mentorship extends over a linear four-month period, with a total of twenty-four hours of structured session time, in addition to four days per week of unlimited messenger availability for accountability updates, voice note exchanges and informal calls upon occasion. I do not work on Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays, but I am fully-available across all timezones for regular calls and messenger contact on Thursday - Sunday. If you’ve scrolled this far, and resonate with what I’m offering, I invite you to message me on Instagram. It would be my pleasure to start exploring your goals and intentions in real-time. IMPORTANT: I am an intentionally independent coach, and not a licensed therapist or associated with any professional bodies or coaching institutions, and therefore enjoy the freedom to collaborate with my clients across all areas of life in an intimate, direct and highly involved coaching style. I work with no more than twenty people per year, and am currently accepting a maximum of two new clients per month. I also manage my own inbox and do not use automated systems or employ people to pretend to be me on Instagram, which means that it usually takes four to six weeks for me to respond to new messages and begin the interview process. Although my approach takes time, I hope you ultimately appreciate my personal emphasis on authentic and confidential communication from the very beginning of our relationship. I once again encourage you to message me immediately if you want to start working together within the next two months - bump yourself to the top of my inbox, and I’ll send you some voice notes to get our conversation started.

I've been avoiding this video. I wish I couldn't relate to every single part of it. I'm so far behind where I should be in my own healing journey considering how long I've been aware it needed to happen, but then again only last month did I decide that any crutch (weed stuck around longer than the rest) still meant I wasn't actually confronting the depths of pain still lurking inside. They call it ☂ fibromyalgia-I say I'm just fucked up. Sometimes we need to admit when people a lot smarter than ourselves can help us. Is there another way to contact you other than instagram to find out more about one to one sessions? As always thank you for sharing and making it easier to understand and listen to 💙

a dissociated person will begin to feel alive again when the time comes that they agree that their life now matters and is important.. this moment in time is sometimes predetermined at the time of dissassociation

Yes, I agree to some degree - although would push back against any arguments of 'pre-determinism' when supporting dissociative individuals... potential slippery slope territory towards fantastical-wishful-thinking which can sometimes inhibit us from taking the practical steps to everyday grounding and self-care. I know what you're saying though!

@@jordanthornton I think we mean the same in terms of predeterminism not being a thing. I was referring to a person predetermining when they will start to take an action, NOT predeterminism as in the future is predetermined. An example of this would be when a person (at the time of disassociating) subconciously decides "my life will matter at a future point in time OR after X happens etc.".. This subconcious decision to disassociate only usually becomes coscious once the person has sufficently grounded.. The more I say, the more we will likely come to understand/misunderstand but this video really hit a deep part of me so thank you for creating content that resonates where not much else has..

wow. I still feel myself going in and out of this. it's fascinating. i moved back home with my parents and am at rock bottom. and i have moments of "i can do this. i can heal. i'm worthy and valuable.' and then "fuck it, it's not worth it. i'm too broken." which is the defense mechanism and dissociative tendencies. what a trip. the tug of war between the part that wants to heal and the strong defense patterns that want to seek safety with addictions and external phenomena.

@@the.kai.eros.experience Please let me share something I have realised and found extremely helpful to raise my self above the cycle of dissociative thought patterns more effectively than in the past (hopefully it can help you too!): The first state I found myself in around: Dissociative thought patterns due to subconscious (repressed memories which surfaced) and conscious childhood trauma which had both left a residual and insidious/false thought patterns and beliefs about myself leading to dissociation. What I realised: First phase A.) My body/nervous system is actually habituated/conditioned to go through the cycle of dissociation as it was how my brain was wired through my maladaptive response to trauma throughout my adolescent period (a period of intense neuronal growth/pruning). It doesn't matter how much my life was in order or how extremely fortunate I became, my body still goes through the cycle of dissociation which is associated with thoughts that are demotivating/self sabotaging etc. Second phase B.) Realising that my mind/body are wired to dissociate (subject to plasticity/time) I came up with a strategy to diffuse negative thought patterns and become more present in the moment and minimise/eradicate dissociating/negative thoughts. This happened organically without much conscious planning (I more realised afterwards what I had done after it occured). Third phase - here is the trick! C.) We all have a good/pure intention in our heart of hearts (whether we have discovered it or not) we also have "positive thoughts/feelings/pure intentions" that can challenge our dissociating thoughts/feelings/patterns of behaviour etc.. The trick is to: 1.) Start dissociating using these "positive thoughts/feelings/pure intentions". Escape reality into these positive things inside ourselves! 2.) Realise that any thought (including positive thoughts) that take you away from the moment are in fact you dissociating/negative in that aspect. 3.) When you start rejecting your most positive thoughts (which are actually dissociating thoughts) to live in the moment, the dissociating cycle becomes a lot easier to break and harder to fall in to. 4.) When a positive thought pattern becomes the worst thing (dissociating) you can think of, you will eventually become someone who is constantly living in the moment! This has helped me so much, I hope it helps you too, I'm still not perfect at it but getting much better and am filled with hope for the future..

I started sobbing in the first minute. But, I knew I was going to cry already. I worked up to this. I just found you, and thank you so much for having the bravery to talk about. I often hated my dissociating. It made us/me weird, and stuff. Anyway, I've found so much gratitude to my soul for what it did. Our heart, we- my soul, we survived because of that. A lot of people say dissociating is sooo bad. But it's extreme, and it did exactly what it was supposed to do. I didn't become "them."

Good day Jordan, I have experienced dissociation/depersonalization and split personality to escape from my trauma that occurred while serving in the Canadian Forces. Now with some intense inner work and lots of practice, this so called defensive mechanism has become my biggest gift. Today I am able to safely and with full control dissociate when stressful even occurs, but back then I was not able to control my body, now I use it to be the observer of myself and the situation. This has helped me tremendously to not be reactive. TY for your videos, I have found my new platform. ❤️

Thank you for sharing that and congratulations on the progress you’ve made! The more I hear others stories the more I reflect on my own in the knowing of just how protected I was to a certain degree. I wish channels like yours had more subs to seriously help people as most are drawn to the more entertaining and not necessarily informative channels on the subject, but at least they start somewhere. Our society as with most things we experience seems to be flipped upside down as in the fact of fixing things on the back end instead of preventing them. Of course none of us are perfect and most are just barely existing day in and day out seeing no end in sight. We see this in our Relationships, our Governments, our Health Industry and in our Faith, as things will get better once we’re on the other-side. Many have gotten themselves in situations of distractions that make the healing process far more difficult as the more moving parts involved the more you have to factor into the process. Sometimes we have to remember we are not alone in this healing process especially if we’ve brought responsibilities into this world and our lives who have now become a factor as well as possible an unknown victim of our trauma. Sometimes we seek to help others as a distraction for helping ourselves and in the process we don’t realize we’re just making the hole for ourselves deeper while we pile more dirt on ourselves in the process of doing this good deed we can often be change while dealing with someone else’s trauma and not realize it. I got lucky that when I began the work I had no distractions based on responsibility and was able to connect with my true self to do most of the heavy lifting and although most in my life would not ever know what it entailed I was able to keep a sense of so called normalcy due to my chameleon Jungian type which I’ve turned into a blessing as most as this type thinks it’s a curse. Of course I always get carried away in the comment section and I can’t wait to get into the next video for most do not realize that this topic is of great value yet has been demonized by the generalized public because that’s what they’ve been taught. Open our eyes and show us what’s truly behind the curtain for those who dare to seek with unbiased eyes and ears for only in that way can true knowledge be attained! You are much appreciated! 🙏❤️🙏

“Hell is other people” (Sartre) I agree in general with your recommendations for more groundedness. But human interaction, unless with someone spiritually and psychologically healthy( almost Guru like) is not advised since most social groups today promote dissociation. Better to follow the tried and tested solitude method before venturing into human, usually flawed human relationships which mostly these days are co-dependent traps. Another issue is that being in the body is actually getting us back n touch with mundane awareness, away from the mind-body complex ironically, this takes us back into “ spirit” being, spaciousness.

Although I agree with what you're saying about human interactions in some ways, I believe we don't need other's to be almost 'guru-like' to receive the benefits of healthy bonding and relationship. Sure, there are lots of psychological issues in society, but there are also plenty of increasingly healthy people worth befriending or collaborating with. Appreciate your comment!

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. It takes a lot of courage. Can you could provide insight into climate anxiety and the feeling of doom and anticipatory grief that the situation triggers? Many are searching for a way to cope. When I looked squarely at the aggregate of peer reviewed scientific literature re: abrupt exponential climate change, it shattered me. It set off a grief that is unlike any grief I have ever processed. It's one thing to grapple with and accept one's own death. It's another thing to contemplate the collapse of civilization and the quite possible extinction of the human race.

I don't remember that much of my childhood. Just bits and pieces. I am 56 and still dissociate almost every day when I need to. I only found out I was emotionally abuse as a kid at 51, It was my first Spiritual Awakening good morning I would have told you I was never abused when my father died it's my mother became a raging alcoholic leaving her a six kids and a very busy Supper Club. My parents were wealthy and my dad was well known for being a chef and a restaurant owner back in the 60s and 70s. After my father died when I was 7 my brother took his life a couple years later andmy sister followed a couple years after that. I've been with sociopaths my whole life never knowing what the hell was wrong with them. That day i read the 10 traits of a narcissist well he was laying next to me on his laptop I didn't know not to say anything and I read him the nine the 10 traits and said you're not a narcissist are you I'll never forget to look on his face and his black eyes and he said I believe I am that was the craziest 24 hours of my life. I didn't know what spirituality it was I didn't believe in God anymore I didn't know I was abused and every things in my life was a lie remember the movie Mommy Dearest that was my mother to the tea raging alcoholic well-known the stars all came to my parents supper club. Pictures all over the walls in the waiting room with them. I was born 25 years later then my siblings. My mother was way to old to have another baby. Sorry got carried away. Anyway I just saw one of your videos for the first time the other day and knew you were the one I needed to listen to. Thank you so much for helping us . Lov

Nice thing we can look back at experiences like that and still find a hopeful take on them. I have been throughout the video with a question in my mind though: what about the lack of memories? I'm certain this is a sideways direction I'm taking the conversation, but I can't help but chew on this. I couldn't situate myself relative to many things yet in my life, this being one of them, despite my natural inclination to go after self-awareness. Very dissociative as a kid and on, but can remember very little of my childhood to be able to know where it stems from. Quite a conundrum, eh?

My current best understanding of memory repression is that the way to 'unlock' the material is via the body - specifically, the pre-verbal emotions. It's the essence of the cathartic therapies, and I've seen signs that the visual and narrative elements tend to re-emerge in their own timing (as the body opens up space / unthaws)

Hi Jordan, stuck 5 years on fight or flight and trauma goes beyond limitations in the subconscious. It's my soul from mother abuse that's making wanting my mum because I kept pretending I was also asleep when she entered my room. She didn't had harmful intentions but I was terrified of her...I don't know how to heal my soul I am more terrified with myself than any other person on earth. When trauma comes up every 2-3 hours my soul practically is been taken out of my body. I am very violent while asking for my mum. I am shouting that she doesn't want me..Jesus how can end this...this thing wants to take my soul..😢

I tried to disassociate trauma from the soul. Instead, I say that trauma hits the body, the biological self. By distancing my soul from the body, it allows me to attain a level of peace. The body is a temporary state. I guess this is the point of enlightenment in a spiritual sense. To preserve the soul by bypassing the body.

Or perhaps, I'm trying to find more effective coping mechanisms after studying psychoanalysis and Jung for 20 years. On the other hand, I feel that as a collective consciousness we continue to dwell in a primitive, primordial, state. But this too may be my coping mechanism. Aristotle once said, trauma nourishes the soul. It's paradoxes such as these that throw me into perplexity.

Just a thought on the “get some exercise” idea: What if your discociated little boy in that bedroom took the advice and went for a little jog around the block…and his body started feeling kind of safe (because it wasn’t stationary and therefore not trapped !) and then the rhythmic impact of his feet hitting the pavement switched on the same endogenous opiate system , that rewarded ancient man for running down prey for hours at a time (that possibly allowed him to get hold of the meat-protein he used to grow himself this complex little brain that gives us all so much trouble now…). So now our little boy is being rewarded for running with some of the most powerful drugs our bodies can produce: He’s feeling kind of elated because the body is feeding his system candy in the form of dopamine and serotonin and he is pain free, because of home made opiates (and cortisol). Sweet! He might add to the experience by listening to some nice music…and hey! He doesn’t even have to deal with people (so he is on a holiday from constantly scanning their every move for danger)…at this stage the kid realises he can created the “mother of all dissociative environments”. He can literally leave his body to chug along on its own…and then sort of rendezvous with it at the end of a run to collect the praise and admiration he will no doubt receive from others when he gets home (rampant drug abuse is still very much frowned upon by this society…exercise-not so much) . ..My point being that exercise is obviously great…but the intention behind the activity is what makes it either a medicine OR a poison. Great Chanel though! I am enjoying it.

I totally see what you're saying and appreciate you taking the time to describe this situation with so much care and detail. Exercise addiction is certainly an issue worth talking about, and yet I would not hesitate the ''devils bargain' to snap my fingers and substitute all dissociative screen-addictions for daily movement 'addictions'. Problems at every level, but a mass shift to exercise compulsion would be an improvement over screen compulsion.

@@persephone4846 I agree with what you’re saying here about unresolved core pain, and have studied these things too. It’s all ultimately symptoms-swapping - and that doesn’t ‘work’. And yet I have to disagree that the ‘pain stays the same’ when it comes to the specific example of physically strengthening and vitalising the body. Compulsive or not, movement is naturally curative for dissociative individuals to a tangible degree, even if there is chronic traumatic compulsion behind their exercise. Tricky topic to explore, and I wouldn’t want to be seen as black-and-white on this either. Very interesting conversation, certainly worth exploring more in the future!

Interesting. I never considered it before, but I wonder now if the phenomenon known as an Out of Body Experience might relate to such dissociative behavior/consciousness as you speak of. I had an Out of Body Experience when I was about 7. It lasted perhaps 3-4 minutes before I became "aware" that *I* was looking at *me*, (from the corner up near the ceiling, actually) and it was extremely vivid/visceral, and a bit scary to me at the time. Not having any reference for such experience, and since kids switch gears pretty quick, I quite forgot about it until much later, about age 12-13 when I read about the phenomenon, and recalled the strange experience. It has not occurred again, but I believed it to be an authentic experience, as at that age, I had no knowledge of such things upon which to base a 'fantasy' or 'lucid dream' experience. Now I must reckon whether it was "just" a physiological response. Escapism at a high level. ha. Talk about an "external locus of identity", haha. I can laugh now, but only because I paid for the buffet. The "Hypervigilance" to the point of possibly "reading into energies before anything happens" ....um. Yes. THAT thing. I'm rather at a loss for words here, and must simply say: Dude, you make me feel so not weird. haha. Turns out to have all been with good purpose, however excruciating it may have been to 'develop' this peculiar "skillset", for it serves me and others well, today. I -however it has come to pass, have ended up 'working' with a couple much-too-young suicidal boys. (One of whom also recently related a similar type Out of Body awareness or experience to me) Also, distinctly dismissive avoidant/non-conversant personality types, and cannot help but think these behaviors too, falls under the same spectrum of dissociative defense mechanisms. Fortunately at this time, none of them are at a "crisis stage" any longer. We are 'maintaining', and we are improving, and growing together. Your Work is quickly becoming a Source of not only encouragement, but almost an affirmation that I am doing precisely as needs be, ...nevermind that it isn't what I would have elected, nor planned, when I started playing online Video Games. A greater Design has me right where It wanted me. Lives are at stake, Mr. Jordan, as you indubitably well know. I appreciate the support.

I came across your videos when I was looking to delve a little deeper into Jungian psychology. I have to say that I'm not sure how I feel about some of the content. It feels quite inaccessible and elitist, and I wonder what the actual impact you're trying to make is? Because a lot of what I've seen has been a bit like inspiration porn, trauma flaunting and a lot of pseudo-science. I think it's a bit dangerous to say what you're saying with so much authority. Your heart very well may be in the right place here, but I'd recommend taking a long hard look at yourself and being as honest with yourself as you preach to be. Is this an ego-trip that will just make people think you're great, and smart and interesting without actually having to do the real work? I would say looking at the demographic of people who seem responsive, it comes off as a bit of a "circle jerk", if you will. Just maybe be a bit mindful of that if what you're trying to do is actually bring about change rather than recreate the wheel.

I appreciate your comment and understand your concerns, Rach. There is an increasing amount of shallowness and pseudo-scientific teachings out there. I see that. Jungian circles are particularly circular, and the comments section on any video will usually only be comprised of 'top-engagement' - not the vast majority who fall in the middle. To directly respond to your questions: I've spent the last two years facilitating this work with clients privately as my full-time occupation. It's not something I take lightly, and have supported many people as they patiently work through horrific traumas. I likewise make every attempt in this series to be as holistically grounded in my research and conclusions as possible. Always attempting to highlight that I indeed don't have 'all the answers', and also do my best to draw the viewers attention directly to the resources that I have likewise benefitted from. I trust that adults can make their own decisions, especially in subjective spaces. Hope this answers your question, appreciate your concern and wishing you well.
