Episode Summary

If even the thought of being bored makes your head hurt… you’re not alone.

It is highly likely that your brain senses boredom as something to be avoided at all costs.

But your unwillingness to allow yourself to BE bored is having more of a negative impact than you may realize.

This episode reveals the benefits of boredom, why you may be avoiding it and how to shift from seeing it as a “problem to be solved” to a valuable way to allow space in your life as a pathway to imagination, innovation and peace.

Why is that in a world where “information is king,” and readily accessible to all, living with peace is more of a joke than a reality?

As people are “consumed with consuming more,” we are producing a society of individuals who exhibit high agency like never before but that sits right next to high anxiety like never before.

This episode suggests six tips to help yourself and others (particularly those in Gen Z) to engage in different ways that ease the anxiety and produce better results for all concerned.
