In Our Nature
Absolutely everything is interconnected in astonishing dynamic ways that we are only beginning to understand, including our mental and planetary wellbeing.
The In Our Nature explores these connections, along with the unseen but profoundly influential currents, systems, cycles, patterns, stories, and constructs that shape both our inner lives and the world around us.
Why are we the way we are? Why are we treating the world and each other in the ways we do? Why do we feel so rubbish? Is this in our nature? What's going on?
Join me, Siobhán Friel, your host and fellow wanderer, as we curiously fondle the places where environmental, societal, historical, ecological and mythological contexts meet and mingle.
The In Our Nature pod wants to shed light on the hidden connections and deeper patterns that are shaping this extraordinary time we are in, helping us see more clearly as we make our way forth. Come and join me.
In Our Nature
You Are Not Your Thoughts...So Who Are You Then? (Part 1)
Do you take your thoughts seriously? Do you think you create them? Do you think your thoughts are advising you of important information about you, the future, the past or what other people think of you?
Yep. All part of being human. What a riot, huh?
But we're told through influences, culture and messaging that our thoughts ARE important and we DO need to pay attention.
But your thoughts are nothing to do with you.
Come and explore:
- Why - of course! - we think our thoughts are important, personal and to be paid attention to
- How this simply can't be true if you poke at it a bit
- The impact that seeing through this illusion can have on our relationship with anxiety, overthinking, insecurity and all the things
- And if we aren't our thoughts and our thoughts aren't ours....well....who the hell ARE WE then?
- Actually, that last bit will be in part two, coming next week. But I'll leave it in anyway
And:
- Gasp! No Anxious Alice this week. I missed her
