Do you have experience with other process oriented change work techniques? Be it alternative frameworks or CBT?


I think it's very hard to reason about concepts like beliefs. We have a naive understanding of what the word means but there are a bunch of interlinked mental modules that don't really correspond to naive language. Unfortunately they are also not easy to study apart from each other.

Having reference experiences of various corner cases seems to me to be required to get to grips with concepts.

Not sure to what extent these count, but I've done various CFAR techniques, mindfulness meditation, and Non-Violent Communication (which I've noticed is useful not only for improving your communication, but also dissolving your own annoyances and frustrations even in private).

Do you think that resolving an emotion frustration via NVC is done via reinforcement learning?

No.
