In this episode, we explore and address the distorted Western conceptions of mental health, within the context of communalism and collectivity. Drawing from insights and understandings gathered from roots in the Black church, experiential self-knowledge, self-studying of Ancient and indigenous civilizations, including the perspective of African psychology, and amplified by an African self-consciousness, I hope this intimate reflection will help you draw parallels, become inspired, and develop a sense of curiosity.
A quote for deep and intense reflection: “When the human spirit is well, whole, and healthy, the human being is characterized by confidence, competence, and a sense of full responsibility and unlimited potentiality” —Dr. Wade Nobles
