Attacking the Psychology

- In this video I talk about how you can attack the psyche or the psychology of a subject, via the suggestion (in a kinaesthetic sense) of the physical consequences of their possible demise! Even though in a physical sense it is highly probable that you will do no physical harm at all nor is any intended! A useful tool! Lee M

Now this is what TRUE self defence is about. The most interesting and highly informative video regarding the psychology of defence application seen yet.👍
Irrelevant side note: while the terms are often used interchangeably, psychopaths lack empathy for others, and do not necessarily lack self preservation instincts. This usually meams they are capable of inflicting great harm (for no apparent reason) on others, but it doesnt necessarily mean that they would have no consideration for their own well being.
A psychotic (someone experiencing psychosis) is a person who has lost touch with reality and may not respond or even acknowledge a threat to their own personal safety.
So in the context of self defence, a psychopath can (like the rest of us) respond to having their life/well being threatened, whereas a psychotic probably will not.
Great vid as usual UC 👍👍👍
"We will use visual aesthetics to instill psychically in the enemy a disincentive to attack. You relax your body and your voice. And you just rip out one of his eyes. Or you get a pen and you stab him in the neck, you create this... a fountain of blood, I mean a real fountain, get it squirting all over his buddies. That is a psychic disincentive, right there." -Lyn Cassady
Gold. Videos like this are treasure because most of fighting/confrontation is mental!
having tried various martial arts over the years when younger and never finding what i was looking for ,which was self protection and nothing else i sincerely wish i'd known a man such as you to train me in the art of real self protection!!
Love Lee his is probably one of the few real deal instructors for real life
Since discovering UC channel, this man tells it as it is as most dojangs/dojos failed to explain this to their students worldwide. Psychology is a vital part of martial arts and especially in urban combat settings that truly can make or break your assailant.
First off I love your presentation of this approach. I am of the opinion that pain is far to unpredictable to count on. I would like to add that attacks to the eye where you keep your figners in the eye-socket can product a very similar effect. Here the effect is control based on the opponent's fear of being blinded. I would offer the evidence in that I have used this approach in a real situation as a method to create compliance to my ceasing their immediate attack, manipulating their body postion, and pushing the fellow rearwards. Althoug they may capitualate, I teach this with an absiolute warning that the second you remove the threat the opponent will be immediately back in the game. This must be noted and accoutned for. In reality I have experienced both.
Lee Morrison , Terry O,Neil , Gary Speirs , The Original "A" Team 👍👍👍👍👍
A lot to learn from this gentleman.
Brilliant video. From Ireland ☘️
great Video 👏🏽👏🏽 Thank you Lee Morrison
Such great information lee hope you are doing ok bro
The real question is: Do I have the discipline to release??!! Once the switch is flipped - in case of the clear and present danger. Can you train for this? Mental strength NOT to take the force continuum from zero to 10. I love your channel for a perspective on violent v. violent topics.
Yes it is possible to train. The more emotional control you have and the more you train to rapidly switching between mindsets the easier it is.
A very easy start is to just train you eyes (which is part of your neurosystem) to focus at different distances, focus really hard on one single point and the "crush" your focus and concentrate on the periphiral vision. This might sound total bullshit but if you train your self to switch between ultra focused to totally unfocused and get a good control over that you start being able have finer control over other things. This due to the fact that you train your nerological system to quickly switch between different modes (even though it seems to be "just" fine montor skills for the muscles in your eyes, but it is also the brains perception of what you see).
If you then add training to swap between different types of breathing (hyperventilate and long calm breaths) you start to get another level of emotional control. The breath control is neurologically speaking directly linked with your fight or flight system and the easiets way to advert a panic attack for example is by controlling the breathing. So the easiest way to control your emotions is by breath control. This can be done do excercises so that you get winded and then try to control your breath and thereby your heartrate. Practioners of biathlon (crosscountry sking and the precision shooting with a rifle) are real experts of this.
The second easiest is by cotrolling your thought and using deliberate "counter thoughts" to balance impulsive thoughts. One way of training this is to do mindfullness excersises and/or meditations where the whole goal is to let your mind go off track and then retain the focus. Like in the gym; the more reps you do the stronger this ability becomes.
Another way of training this is to go from very a calm and still mind to imidate explosive action where your mental intention and focus is to kill those pads or punshing bag in a flurry of strikes - give it all and the some - and then suddenly stop and get back to a clam state again. Doing it on command to start can be good because the you need to listen to an outside que. Just train control and rappidly switching between mindsets. Just as the explosivness of you muscles are (mostly) neurologically based, so are rapid switching in your brain.
Some people even have the abillity to totally disassociate their thought process from their feelings in a fight where they are able to stay clear headed even under emence stress and feelings of fear and rage. It is at times described like a "wet blanket" over their feelings which get muted while their head/thoughts go full throttle focusing really hard trying to solve the situation. It is like the body shuts out the feelings to focus the resources on the problemsolving. The emtional backlash though can be brutal afterwards with the body reacting to the bottled up emtions without the mind/thought process really getting wtf are happening. This though is not really the same as emotional control and rapid switching between mindsets though, but it can help having control in the heat of the moment.
Wow, I am grateful and Blessed to have found you. Much love and many thanks. The work begins now.@@sirseigan
There was an incident in NYC on a subway where a homeless man was threatening the passengers if they didn’t give him money. A marine veteran put him in a chokehold and the homeless man died. The homeless man had a history of violence against defenseless elderly people. The marine veteran had no intention of killing the man. However, he didn’t know when it was safe to let him go. Can you watch the video and comment on that situation? Thank you.
I have been following your work for many years now and you have taught me very much. You make me harder to kill and in the long run the world a better place. Thank you
Great bloke
I want Lee on my side
Thanx You Muchly

Lee is right on the markand this isn't explained alot in martial arts
I'm always impressed with your knowledge from experience and the raw approach to reality. Thank you
The illusion of choice.
A lot people smile .. when facing fear I feel. It is not an absolute sign perhaps.. as some may be showing confidence or be amused you would consider fighting them. In other cases, the smile is to offer a false sense of security; or to lessen a loss of face; or a plea to calm an adversary. These are of course just my mere opinions.
Nicely put Lee. We must remember to work hard at developing the skills to be able to implement this strategy.
Great work
Really insightful!
Thanks !!
Epinephrine and adrenaline are two different names for the same substance. In the US they use Adrenalin and in Australia they use the term epinephrine in medical literature / hospital settings. It's the same thing. This is a fact.
Warm smile, cold heart…
What would you suggest to overcome a windmill, maybe with keys in hand.. a mate reckons a well spirited windmill is hard to beat.. cheers
