Connecting to Communities for Genuine Wellbeing
Ondy Willson · 116 minutes · recorded May 4, 2023
Ondy Willson asks whether our trouble with anxiety and depression is partly a symptom of isolation, and answers by working outwards from the self to the communities around it. She sets out what Freud, Jung and Thich Nhat Hanh made of the self, then how conditioning hardens into habit and tendency, and which constructive emotions serve as antidotes. The rest is the effort connection takes, and what headphones, video calls and social media quietly cost us. Three guided practices run through.
An online workshop with Ondy Willson on the topic of strengthening genuine wellbeing by connecting to ourselves, something sacred, and our communities. Hosted by the Contemplative Consciousness Network (CCN) on April 30, 2023.
