Adam & Eve, Carl Jung, The Subconscious Shadow, Genetics...

Discussing a variety of topics starting with the story of Adam & Eve. I was brought up in Christian communities but was never baptized. The story of Adam & Eve always intrigued me and about 7 years ago I finally understood it as hide & seek. Hiding from ourselves, so that we can uncover, or discover ourselves again.

Carl Jung was a psychologist contemporary with Sigmund Freud. Jung saw that we are a product of our surroundings and that we cannot separate the dual halves of ourselves as much as we might try. Jung stated that the undesired attributes of oneself form a ''Shadow'' which is comprised of all the subconscious negative aspects one does not want to see in themselves. The more the Shadow goes unacknowledged, the more the individual allows is to grow subconsciously until it takes over their behaviours and actions without them being able to notice nor control it.

Genetics is widely used as an excuse for those not to change themselves or to not take responsibility for their health. It is imaginary, the field of epigenetics states that genetic predispositions do not matter at all, and ultimately that ''genetics'' as we think of it does not exist in the way that allows us to give up responsibility for our health through the lifestyles we lead. Genetics can be thought of as a predisposition where one is brought up within a family or by guardians that pass of their foods, their living habits, exercise habits, use of chemically toxic products... which leads to an individual only having access to these things as well and so their health is affected by this material inheritance.
