PART 1 on our discussion of boredom!
Boredom boredom boredom, listening to Tyler the Creator while watching Netflix, while doing a puzzle, while painting your toenails- we've all been there.
And quite frankly some of you are probably right there now, and to let you in on a little secret, I painted my toes too while editing this ep xx.
Is boredom something that we should be villainising, or is it just a little warning signal from our body to re-prioritise our attention and our meaning?
Todays episode is a little more 'woo woo' and by woo woo I mean based in the science of psychology which relies on slightly more interpretable data aka that being peoples opinions, perceptions, interactions. This doesn’t make it any less rooted in fact or in science, and in fact it probably is more robust because of the scrutiny that this type of science is often subjected to.
Please enjoy our discussions and philosophising and let us know if you too think that boredom is a natural, and while maybe not celebrated, a more neutral emotion than everyone would lead us to believe. And maybe If we allowed ourselves to fully feel bored we would gain monumental insight into our own motivations and desires and this could lead us towards a more meaningful and intention life. But who knows that’s just my hypothesis on the matter...
Stay hot science xx
