Question Everything, Especially Yourself

Join us for an insightful episode of Words With Myself, where we explore the importance of not just questioning external information, but also our internal beliefs. Wrapped in a continuous effort to decipher your truth, the episode emphasizes how our beliefs are subtly shaped by a lifetime of curated data from society, the internet, and the government. We delve into the challenge of questioning deeply held beliefs and the emotional discomfort that comes along with it. It asserts that the defensiveness and agitation we experience when our beliefs are challenged, usually point towards beliefs we haven't truly internalized. We discuss the painful yet transformative experience of questioning those views, which might be rooting us in negativity or detrimental patterns. In this episode, we illustrate this point with an intimate look at the struggle with depression. We confront the popular belief that it is an insurmountable, inborn affliction and explore an alternative viewpoint of depression as stuck trauma. It's a viewpoint that if realized much earlier, it could have spared much suffering. By the end, we arrive at a ground-breaking insight. Not only do you often hold baseless beliefs, but questioning and investigating these beliefs, can lead to a profound change in your life. So, tune in as we unlock the door to wisdom, by daring to unspool the threads of our belief system, questioning everything, especially ourselves.
