Bio: When Daniel Tabakman was younger he was often able to watch his experiences happen from the inside. This confused and delighted him personally but found it very difficult to relay and connect with others in that regard.
Using his insight into the human experience and conducting various psychological experiments on himself, he went through Orthodox Judaism, post orthodox Judaism, the kink community, the rational community, Effective Altruism, the post rational community, and TPOT to name a few.
During that time he help run events in the kink space, host large dinners in the jewish space, start community meet ups in both the Ottawa and Toronto rational scenes, start a not for profit in the Effective Altruism Toronto called ThinkBetter, and ran the first Jews for EA dinner ever, and it secretly had post rationalist vibes.
Daniel when he is not taking care of his two little boys started a YouTube channel called Psychotechnologies Live with Elliot Red and created his own Toronto based community the Vibe Explorers of Toronto A.K.A VibeX. He is also attempting to bring a new psychological measure for addiction into mainstream acceptance.
Ask me about: My area of interest is Psychotechnologies and I love watching people developing in real time. When someone attempts to do something that is just beyond their reach, the struggle changes them, and that change is the most interesting thing in the entire world.
Psychotechnology is a deliberate construction by people designed to affect the mind or psyche. Some of the ones I have experience with are:
- Intention setting, ethics around affecting other people’s wants and perceptions, finding and effecting preconceptions, consciousness per say, meaning making, predetermining parameters for personal and group psyche exploration, Objective vs Subjective Differentiation, Beginners Mindset, self directed agentic growth.
- Developmental levels such as Integral/spiral dynamics, Kegan levels.
- Various types of meditation, like Jhanas, stages of insights, fetters, hindrances, states, mask differentials, creating meditations as needed.
- Therapeutic modalities like IFS, Gottman, CBT
- Authentic relating style container creation and parameter setting, such as circling and its variance.
If you don’t know what any of that was and you are interested in talking to me don’t worry. Just try and be honest, share what’s happening while it’s happening and remember being human is being flawed in awkward and embarrassing ways, and I enjoy being part of that process.
I am taking on new clients 1 on 1, in group sessions, or in more liminal ways. Find a time here https://calendly.com/danielszev/30min
