In the New Psychology of DREVO, a person is viewed as a holistic, living, self-developing system, capable of self-awareness, making free choices, creating new things, and bearing responsibility for the consequences of their actions.
- A human being is not only a biological organism.
- He is not only the bearer of the psyche.
- It is not limited to consciousness, intelligence or social roles.
A person is a unity of many interconnected levels, each of which performs its own function in the development of personality.
This system includes:
- the body is the material basis of life;
- subconscious - accumulated experience and automatic adaptation mechanisms;
- psyche - the system of perception, thinking, emotions and memory;
- consciousness is the ability to be aware and choose;
- will - the ability to control oneself and implement conscious choices;
- superconsciousness is a space of creativity, inspiration and the search for new opportunities;
- soul - the inner core of the personality, its values and authenticity (in the philosophical sense);
- spirit - the direction of development, meaning and desire for creation (in the philosophical sense);
- values and meaning are the inner compass of life;
- social connections are a space for joint development;
- interaction with nature, society and technology - the environment in which a person lives and which he himself transforms.
Man is constantly evolving.
He is able to change himself through learning, experience, awareness, work, relationships and creativity.
- At the same time, a person does not exist in isolation.
- He is part of the family.
- Part of the family.
- Part of the community.
- Part of society.
- Part of nature.
- And part of human history.
Every decision he makes has an impact not only on himself, but also on the people around him, society, and future generations.
Therefore, human development cannot be separated from the development of the environment in which he lives.
The main feature of a person
The main characteristic of a person is the ability not only to adapt to the world, but also to consciously change oneself and the surrounding reality.
It is the ability to be aware, to make free choices, to cooperate and to create that distinguishes a person as an individual.
Definition
A person is a holistic, self-developing biopsychosocial system with the capacity for awareness, free choice, learning, cooperation, and creativity. The DREVO philosophical model of New Psychology also views human development through the concepts of soul, spirit, values, and meaning as levels that define the individual's inner direction.
The main goal of a person is not only to preserve his own life.
The main goal is to realize one's potential, make a creative contribution to the lives of others, and leave behind a world healthier, fairer, wiser, and more harmonious than it was before one came.
Below is a chapter that could become a central model.New Psychology DREVO.
Ten levels of man
Man as a multi-level system
In the New Psychology DREVO, a person is viewed as a holistic living system consisting of ten interconnected levels.
Each level performs its own function.
None of them exist separately.
Personal development occurs when all levels are in a state of harmony and support each other.
I. Body
Function:life and interaction with the material world.
The body is the foundation of a person.
It provides movement, metabolism, perception of the environment, restoration and biological existence.
The main question:
"How to preserve and strengthen life?"
II. Subconscious
Function:automatic life management.
The subconscious is a deep system of biological and acquired programs.
It includes innate mechanisms, habits, automatic reactions, bodily memory, adaptation and accumulated experience.
The main question:
"What experiences are already guiding my reactions?"
III. Psyche
Function:perception and processing of information.
The psyche unites emotions, memory, thinking, imagination, attention and learning.
It helps a person understand what is happening and adapt to the surrounding world.
The main question:
"What is happening around me and inside me?"
IV. Consciousness
Function:awareness and choice.
Consciousness allows a person to observe himself, analyze what is happening and make informed decisions.
- It is consciousness that makes a person the author of his own life.
- The main question:
- "What do I choose?"
V. Will
Function:self-management.
Willpower is the ability to control oneself and make conscious choices.
It connects intention with action, helping people follow their values even when it takes effort.
The main question:
"Am I able to implement my choice?"
VI. Soul
Function:the inner core of personality.
In the DREVO philosophical model, the soul is the source of authenticity, love, conscience, beauty and deep values.
- She is responsible for the internal integrity of a person.
- The main question:
- "Who am I?"
VII. Spirit
Function:direction of development.
The spirit determines the vector of a person’s life.
It is associated with purpose, courage, responsibility and the desire to create.
The main question:
"What do I live for?"
VIII. Values and Meaning
Function:internal compass.
Values help us distinguish between what is important and what is unimportant.
Meaning unites all levels of personality into a single direction of life.
The main question:
"Why this particular path?"
IX. Social Connections
- Function:joint development.
- A person reveals himself through relationships.
- Family.
- Genus.
- Community.
- Society.
It is through cooperation that a person realizes a significant part of his potential.
The main question:
"Who am I growing with and what am I creating with others?"
X. Interaction with the environment
Function:the unity of man and the world.
Humans constantly interact with nature, society, culture and technology.
He not only receives the influence of the environment, but also changes it himself with his decisions and actions.
The main question:
“What world shapes me and what world do I create?”
Unity of levels
- All ten levels form a single system.
- The body creates the basis of life.
- The subconscious stores experience.
- The psyche perceives the world.
- Consciousness makes a choice.
- Will turns choice into action.
- The soul retains its inner authenticity.
- The spirit determines the direction of development.
- Values give meaning to life.
- Social connections allow a person to develop together with others.
- The environment creates conditions in which human potential is revealed.
- Violation of harmony at one level gradually affects the entire system.
Therefore, the goal of the New Psychology DREVO is not to develop a single ability, but to harmoniously develop all ten levels of a person.
The main principle
A person becomes truly mature when all ten levels of his personality work in harmony, and his knowledge, values, and actions are aimed at the development of life, society, and future generations.
Laws of personality development
Introduction
In the New Psychology DREVO, personal development is viewed as a natural process of revealing human potential.
Just as a tree develops according to the laws of nature, a person develops according to certain psychological patterns.
These laws are not physical laws of nature. They represent principles describing the most general conditions for the harmonious development of the individual.
Understanding these laws helps a person consciously build their life, develop their abilities and create conditions for the development of other people.
The First Law is the Law of Life
Life strives for development.
Every living organism has an innate ability to grow, adapt, and improve the way it interacts with its environment.
Development is a natural state of man.
When development stops, the loss of acquired abilities gradually begins.
The Second Law is the Law of Integrity
- Everything is interconnected.
- The body influences the psyche.
- The psyche influences consciousness.
- Consciousness influences the will.
- Will influences actions.
- Actions change relationships.
- Relationships change society.
- Society influences a person.
Therefore, development must occur harmoniously, and not only in one area of life.
The Third Law is the Law of Awareness
A person can change only what he can understand.
Mindfulness allows you to see your own thoughts, emotions, habits and beliefs.
Without awareness, a person acts automatically.
Awareness turns reaction into choice.
The Fourth Law is the Law of Choice
- Every person constantly makes choices.
- Even refusing to make a decision is a choice.
- Each choice gradually shapes the direction of life.
Human freedom is not manifested in the absence of restrictions, but in the ability to choose one's attitude and actions in existing circumstances.
The Fifth Law is the Law of Will
- Choice becomes reality only through action.
- Will connects intention with action.
- Every promise fulfilled strengthens the will.
Every refusal of one's own decision weakens the ability to control oneself.
The Sixth Law is the Law of Habit
- Repeated actions become part of the personality.
- Thoughts turn into solutions.
- Decisions turn into actions.
- Actions become habits.
- Habits gradually shape character.
- Therefore, personality develops through daily practice.
