Let’s talk about a specific modern reality that most of the time hinders our best self. Yes, I’m talking about the one and only star of capitalism (right after money): performance productivity! The one which is often the root cause of depression, anxiety, imposter syndrome, self-sabotage, and many more mental and physical health issues. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being busy but here I’m talking about the kind of busi-ness that becomes extremely unhealthy yet the kind that is praised by our society. The one that not only gets you stuck in the rat race but also deters your mental health. Why is productivity even a core value we have as a society? Who truly does benefit from it? When men function on a 24-H cycle, and women 28-Day cycle.
Glorified performance productivity is what I want to talk about today.
Why as humans, especially the millennial generation, are we crippled with fears that lead us to incarnate a version of ourselves that is far from the reality we want to create and which messes with our mental health?
Listen up to this gem,
Namaste listeners!
