Episode notes
Personal Recovery Through Understanding Thought
- Dr. Jeanne Catherine-Gray described her long struggle with complex PTSD and numerous therapies before the Three Principles changed her life.
- She credits an understanding of how thought works with freeing her from an abusive relationship and becoming her own ally.
Measure The Mechanism, Not The Label
- Critics said the Three Principles were spiritual and unmeasurable, but Jeanne argued that if a source exists in everyone it should be measurable.
- This motivated developing research tools to quantify the mechanism behind reported changes.
Ask Mechanism-Focused Questions
- Design survey questions to probe underlying mechanisms, not program language or rituals.
- Ask about resilience, anxiety, depression and perceptions to capture psychological change reliably.
