  • videos: Daniel Schmachtenberger l An introduction to the Metacrisis l Stockholm Impact/Week 2023

    my intent with video posts: on videos

    i rewatch this video every few months. it is an absolute gutpunch i feel like everyone should experience. it feels like a cold splash of water to the face and then an impending depression episode or anxiety attack depending on which flavor you lean into.

    “what is the point of people inducing depressive episodes?”

    in the close of the video he answers the question (im going off memory its not verbatim): “how do people deal with this information and not become depressed”?

    he answers to the effect of this – the depression is a signal your body sends you, that something is deeply wrong. it is wrong, you should feel like its wrong, it is a legitimate response. lean into it, and trust it. what society should not be encouraging right now is more complacency in the face of crisis.

    i intake a ton of content thru video format. it wont necessarily be thru the video portion itself, i use youtube like a podcast service most of the time. but a lot of my beliefs are forged in thought listening to lots of other people. i hope to share some of my favorite, most meaningful videos that impacted me in hopes that they can trigger some thought in you.

    i expect the pages for specific videos to update over time. new thoughts at different timestamps. ill try and honor keeping my original thoughts in place while updating where my thought it later on.
