integrating healthy spiral

5 posts in this topic

I was wondering that i know thinking on level of spiral is different to action on level of the sprial. However, is it healthy to actively reject things that are lower than my thinking on the spiral through sheer will power. I.e not invention something on orange or pick up at  very reddish levels because of my turquoise nature (thinking-wise) is this an unhealthy and unbalanced growth? 

i have long contemplated and so thats how my thinking reach turquoise but there seems to be a bridge between my actions levels, but working through turqioise helps to weed things out. I.e not going bed late, meditating etc, not hunting for fame or glory?

If you are not at a high level on the spiral in any aspect of life, such as relationships (pickup), then you need to move up the spiral.

Each stage has a lesson, by rejecting the stage you will not get the lesson. Having not gotten the lessons you will be very toxic at high levels in that area. You are much better off indulging in the stage fully, whilst being aware of the fact that there are limits and a higher stage to it.

Turquoise/Yellow thinking is fine, it's helped you see how underdeveloped other areas of your life are. Now get some stage red and embody it in your actions.

@Bluebird Thank you, it makes sense that it is unhealthy this is why i had to ask 

another problem i have is my life purpose is ventured on helping out other people and the job i will be starting soon. However, my lowest stage is red

i would say my rainbow colours are

(unindulged) - 10-20% red

(unindulged)- 10-20% blue 

(unindulged)- 20-30% orange

(semi-indulged) - 30-40% green 

(semi- indulged) - 30-40% yellow 

(completely induged)- 50% turquoise 

a swirling mixture of all these put together, as you can see my thought psychology is yellow/ turquouise, however  i believe my base actions levels and impulse rely in red. i lived in purple for a majority of my life. i only progressed to red only a year and a half ago, this is where i had an awakening. i was pretty immature and childish and due to childhood i stayed in a purple presence instead of moving up. that made my thinking on levels of red/blue/orange. after progressing to orange and working on my shadow work , my thinking has gone to green/yellow/turquoise. 

i believe its the problem behind alot of my undiscipline habits aswell and my need to become self-actualised to feel well rounded (not complete because i am complete already, just well rounded) really fast and skipping out steps, because my brain and my actions are working out on different levels. 

@Leo Gura would be great if you could give some advice on your knowledge of spiral dynamics or anyone.

Just create some integration actions for each stage and start working on the lower red and blue stages.

Maybe pick up or marital arts or self discipline or business or whatever it is. Start sorting out your life.

Don't even worry too much about the spiral. It isn't helpful for everything. Just start doing the work in areas you have neglected. 

For me at the moment that is relationships.
