Relaxation Function Block of EJ Types (Si-Ni)

These types seek a harmonious state, aiming to prevent any external factors from causing discomfort. They achieve relaxation in the absence of negative states or sensations.

They dislike discussions about dangers. They believe one should always view the future positively and focus on imagining favorable scenarios. They feel people should focus on doing pleasant things for one another and avoid being pressured or nagged.

Their method for achieving this harmonious state may involve a tendency to embellish their current circumstances (Ni) and their own emotional state (Si).

For example, they might tell others that their family life is perfectly wonderful, even though the spouses haven't been sexually intimate for six months, barely communicate, and their interactions frequently devolve into arguments and conflicts.

For some individuals within this group, sexual intimacy is one of the primary means of relaxation and rejuvenation.
