Dehumanizing a Sentient World

“If it makes you feel good and it works for you, you can’t care about what others think,” says our guest, Kaitlin Murphy, in our sequal episode on human intoxication. As humans, we find ourselves at bars, social gatherings, and spaces reaching for a glass of social lubrication.As we seek that interaction and connection with others around us, we use elements of the world around us to do so. We will discuss the world as we interact with it on this episode. This is part 2 of 2, we’ve opened up the mic to free expression and open conversation!Join me, Taty Santiago, this week on Food for No Thought.

As humans, we find ourselves at bars, social gatherings, and spaces reaching for a glass of “social lubrication” as our guest, Kaitlin Murphy, puts it. We enjoy drinking, smoking, and seek intoxaction as a means of connection. We will discuss the science and history of human intoxication. This is part 1 of 2, so look forward to another episode next week! Join me, Taty Santiago, this week on Food for No Thought.

Imagine this: You are in a field, there is a sweet, floral smell in the air; in this field, butterflies fly freely, trailing from flower to flower; the air is warm. Now, reflect on how that just felt for you. If it felt pleasant, why? What does it really take to feel good? And why do we like to feel good? There has to be some reason for craving good experiences, feelings, and ways of being. We may be closer to joy than we think… than we believe even. Join me, Taty Santiago, this week on Food for No Thought, where we reflect to connect.Native Quote: https://store.wnpa.org/products/soul-would-have-no-rainbow-if-the-eyes-had-no-tears-100019?srsltid=AfmBOopkP5_LG4r7UYj0p9Cv88plVaXaLKyyN8C88mWzqY9Z5JuJmWL5Fresh Beginning Quote: https://quotefancy.com/quote/1575203/Sarah-Chauncey-Woolsey-Every-day-is-a-fresh-beginning-Listen-my-soul-to-the-glad-refrainInside Out Scenes (Sadness & Joy):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0f2L9qoRFUMusic by kaveesha Senanayake from Pixabay

For ages, living creatures have thrived on discipline. While we may express ourselves fully in artistic and abstract endeavors, to have discipline means to have results and stability. Have you ever explored your curiosities of what it takes to feel disciplined? What routines and lifestyle do you uphold to make discipline your norm? In this week’s episode, we explore what the art of discipline looks like, how philosophers and psychologists view discipline… And even a bit about how we can implement this for ourselves.

Ever wonder what philosophers said? In this episode, we'll explore famous quotes said by OG philosophers. It's fun and fresh, so join me!https://www.brainyquote.com/profession/quotes-by-philosophers

In many cultures, multigenerational family households are common. They make sense, they benefit the family unit, so why don't we participate in this more? How can the modern day "nuclear" family move toward communal living? I have so many questions this episode because I am so curious!!! Let's get to it, listen in and let's explore this curiosity.

Do you ever procrastinate? Me too, it's totally normal! In this episode we'll be talking about the presence of intentionality. We don't want to overload ourselves with tasks and ideas. So, how can we be more intentional with our words and actions? Let's talk about it!

As we continue our journey into Spring, much of our social lives will start to amplify their activity. It is so important in this time to maintain awareness of our batteries (social, physical, mental, emotional, etc.). We will be using some of our batteries more than others, and this usage can be taxing. In this episode, we discuss how to recharge ourselves and our emotions.

Welcome to Season 2! Thank you for joining me again for a new season, and if you are new, welcome to the Food for No Thought podcast. Today we will reflect on last season, discuss the tight boundaries we sometimes set for ourselves, and we will release our old thoughts about fear and embrace change. We all know what it's like to feel afraid before a huge leap in life, let's take that leap together!

Welcome to this week’s episode. Today’s topic is based on a quote delivered to my ol’ brain: “If you just want bodies, I’ll take you to the morgue.” This exploration is based on how society, in general, maximizes production and minimizes the living of humanity. Why live this life if we only invest in advantageous pursuits? Join me, let’s get curious.
