Next Episode: #275 | MM - Does Farting Mean That I'm Unhealthy

What the heck are "social norms" and where do they come from!?

How has society come to collectively agree upon follow so many weird things, and why do some feel so much pressure to follow suit when feeling so icky inside!?

As Jiddu Krishnamurti put it... “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”

That is of course not to say that everything society does is unhealthy, but can't we be free to let go of the social norms that no longer serve us???

In this episode, we explore the topic of escaping social norms as Dr. Susanna shares some insights.

Some highlights from today's WW episode...

Social Norms (AKA Social Constructs) are created from collectively agreed thoughts - that’s it!When we remember that thoughts are just formless energy we see how little power social norms haveYou are always free to choose how you respond to life circumstances, even if that means going against social normsFollowing social norms is not always in an individual's highest or healthiest interest“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society”
-Jiddu Krishnamurti
