In this episode, we look at what’s happening in G@za, specifically through the lens of social media, and the forces that want to keep us skewing towards nervous system collapse and disassociation. Spoiler alert: it’s whiteness! It’s the ‘soothing’ lull of consumerism and capitalism! It’s the unconscious practice of abdicating personal power! It's compulsive information guzzling as a proxy for participation! It’s a habit of helplessness and prioritizing comfort in the face of inconceivable human suffering! 

This episode will be of interest to you if:

• you are vacillating between taking in too much information and not enough information, and are trying to find a balance of staying informed and giving space to your grief
