The way our current comfort system crisis has been built is in a way that will soothe you immediately the wrong way before you can think about finding actual solutions that can change your current circumstances. I believe that’s why a lot of us can’t get out of our loops. Because we have lost the ability to sit with our emotions and feel them without any distraction like doom scrolling, binge eating, binge watching, ordering Uber eats each day, staying up all night, alcohol, drugs, and etc.
We stay in the same place that is hurting us almost all our lives. We just sit there and soothe and self sabotage our whole life.
But are we doomed to stay in that cycle all our lives? I don't think so! I think there are measures we can take to combat this situation. I talked about the solution in more depth in this episode!
