I’m currently read the book “The Face of War” and it’s brought up some powerful realizations for me, specifically how an “I’m right and you’re wrong” mindset can rob us of our emotional well-being and personal power.
Two major mental health “sticking” points leapt out at me as I read the stories told about the atrocities of war - 1) When we see things from an “us vs. them” perspective, everyone loses and 2) We need to be discerning about what information we let in.
At it’s core, this episode is about allowing, allowing others to have their own perspective without feeling personally affronted by their point of view, and also being selective about what information we are allowing into our mental and emotional space, especially when we can’t take an action to affect change.
