  • Summary

  • Today’s episode takes a holistic deep dive into why change feels dangerous. Across all human cultures over many millennia, some risk has always been inherent in the venture of change. Change in one’s social circumstances, environment, societal norms, and the shifting of seasons have always brought with them a certain threat of uncertainty. But today, hundreds of thousands of years after the programmed responses to risk began to form in the human mind, the consequences of change are altogether less dire than they ever have been, while the threat feels larger than ever.

    We explore what this means for humans living in modern times, why it is important to strive to override and outgrow our responses as they perceived and provoked by the primitive centers of the mind, the psychospiritual implications of change, how our associations with risk developed in ancient times, how the loss of healthy culture contributes to our inability to respond appropriately to risk, and much, much more.
