Sikolohiya at Diwa

Kapwa

This episode is a particularly special one, because it is perhaps my earliest attempt to give a full discussion on the concept of Kapwa. I recorded this lecture back when I was just starting on Sikodiwa. It was initially released on January 6, 2023. I’m sharing it with you now as an interesting reflection on how far my own way of thinking has reached. I would also recommend listening to a more recent lecture to see the difference in my approach to talking about these important matters.

Wellbeing

This episode is one of the first public talks I gave on the political and socioeconomic factors influencing individual mental health. This is a Tagalog-language lecture that was given on February 9, 2024, at NO Community-Run Space at 45 Matimtiman Street, Quezon City. This was for Cindy Aquino's exhibit entitled "At the End of the Day." I’d like to acknowledge Khalil Verzosa and NO Community-run Space for providing this recording.

Religion (with Bernz O. Caasi)

In this episode, I enter into the difficult topics of religious trauma, folk spirituality, and indigenized faith. I am joined by Bernz Caasi, a former anti-Catholic who now advocates for open dialogue as an approach to healing spiritual divides. I want to make it clear that I am not a pastor. Bernz is also not a Catholic priest. We approach this discussion with openness and respect for each other’s differences. This was first released as a three-part series, in March 2024.

Community

This episode is an excerpt of a longer workshop I did for KERI, a group dedicated to the wellbeing of social justice advocates. In this discussion, I offer some frameworks based on concepts within Philippine folk psychology, that can help us see how individual, personal experience is rooted in the shared experience of many. This is from March 18, 2024.

Returning to Kapwa

In this episode, I talk about how the system of modern society, which focuses on production and consumption, tends to push us into self-isolation. We will look at the antidote to separation, which is a return to community and belongingness. This is the last episode. For more content, visit linktr.ee/sikodiwa.

A Meditation on Hininga (breath)

Hininga is the breath of life—when a person passes away, we say their breath was taken away from them. Here we meditate on how that applies to your present experience. Then, we will do some grounding visualization. Using the elements of air and earth, we remind ourselves of our place in the world. Follow @sikodiwa on Instagram for more.

Beyond the Filipino Psyche

In this episode, I talk about the mind that goes beyond the limits of the body, and how the Filipino spirit world and cultural values are manifestations of this transpersonal mind. Here we explore the spiritual aspects of Philippine psychology. Follow @sikodiwa on Instagram for more.
