Beings Club

I had this long post written out about channels but did a full 180 by the time I got to the end.

Here’s how I’d like to imagine navigating FC, though. I like knowing cozy corners exist even if I don’t use them often.

Beings Club is that place in-between the places where you bump into someone random and have the most interesting and serendipitous conversations.

it seems to me most of the emotional regulation / nervous system attunement / embodied presence stuff is just a repackaging of what has already been understood by the contemplative wisdom traditions for those who find it hard to trust things that aren't explained in technical and scientific language

am i wrong?

i think one day we'll be free from screens

how it feels when i see you in my notifications:

It has been six months since /beings-club began.

It is what Tom Morgan refers to as a 'Walled Garden' and 'Incubator for your next Identity' in this episode of DialecticPod.

Here are four principles we've worked with so far:

Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

I interviewed Tom Morgan about why your curiosity is smarter than you.

Tom is a writer, community builder, explorer, and former Wall Street mind who surfaces modern and historical ideas about consciousness, emergence, and intelligence greater than ourselves.

This conversation straddles practical frameworks for living authentically and ideas that lean more “woo”—like the notion of a force that counters entropy, pushing the universe toward complexity.

Highlights:

- Why the world is wildly over rotated toward left brain precision and abstraction, rather than right brain intuition and connectedness

- what following your energy actually means

- how to think about life pivots when you have a mortgage

- why openness correlates so highly with wisdom

- Joseph Campbell's "follow your bliss" and why stories point at truth

- "minimum viable woo" and Tom's rational, but humble approach to crazy ideas

Skeptical yet? I hope so—and I hope this convo makes you more curious.

where growth happens naturally

you eat food

and then at some point later you shit it out

the in-between process just happens via natural intelligence

that's that trust shit they been talking about

trust life

it's when i realise that i've been searching for something to make me feel complete that i feel complete 😂

social media is funnier if you think of it as a physical townsquare

I spoke to Tom as I was setting up Beings Club. He was super helpful and encouraging, and I was literally thinking of reaching out to him yesterday, so for this to appear in my inbox via Substack was a joy.

In this episode with @jackson he very briefly mentions 'Walled Gardens' as spaces that act as an 'Incubator for your next identity'.

/beings-club is one such Walled Garden, so if you feel at all called to investigate Beings Club, this podcast will probably also float your boat.

Another great podcast, @jackson, please don't stop!

It's frustrating that so many research papers are gate kept from the public.

When I was at university I could read anything I liked with my university email. 

Does anyone know a way around this?
