Everyday Trance IV: The Magic of Emotions - Kundalini, Sartre, Buddhism
In this episode, I examine the deeper mechanisms of everyday trance and how unconscious emotions influence our perception and decisions. Based on my therapeutic experiences and inspired by Jean-Paul Sartre's concepts of emotion and reality as well as Buddhist teachings, I describe how identifying with unconscious emotions narrows our consciousness and makes it difficult for us to take responsibility for our lives. Find out why the simple concept of "self-hypnosis" and "positive thinking" is often not enough and how we can develop a differentiated view of our inner processes.
