In memory of Roye Fraser – A Hero’s Journey, a Hero’s Life.

My colleague Jeff Leiken posted this on the MythoSelf Yahoo Group early this morning. Roye’s legacy continues, through Joseph and through Charles Moore who this weekend is presenting his Mythogenic Self training near London, we’ll be thinking of Roye and the blessing he has given us through Joseph, that we are continuing to extend out [...]

FREE Jargon FREE jargon FREE

Using the MythoSelf process is conversational AND jargon free. This does not seem to be the case with NLP, though I get that’s a big generalisation. Because I work from the positive bias, I’m asking people about what works. And I’m interested in if they’ve done any personal development type stuff. What I notice about [...]

The Tiger that thought it was a goat story

I love this story from Reflections on the Art of Living – A Joseph Campbell Companion, Selected and edited by Diane K. Osbon: … (Heinrich) Zimmer loved to recount an amusing animal-fable from India.

And if you’ve ever been thrown by a really good martial [...]

It [...]

the MythoSelf Process and Frank Herbert’s Dune

Joseph has drawn influences from a variety of sources as any true innovator does. I’d point out that Joseph explicitly gives credit to where he draws his influences from, this is in contrast to a lot of other teachers who either claim credit for others peoples work or just ‘forget’ to attribute the source of [...]

Dune questions

Rather than the MythoSelf process being outlined in the Dune books, the Dune books inform the MythoSelf process. You’ll note that Joseph is both the architect and the designer of the MythoSelf process… Regarding artistic license, you need to understand that what you believe is true limits what is possible for you. When an author [...]
