This episode continues the discussion of why politics matters to spirituality, by exploring the fascistic and racist roots of modern wellness culture, and how those roots are still expressed today. We look at how sovereignty connects with spiritual adulthood, how racism gets unconsciously expressed by those who want to be full of love, and the difficult questions we must ask of ourselves if we truly want to root out the “fascist in our heads”.

If we value peace, justice, equality, and respect for all life, and yet society doesn’t reflect those values, then if we want those values to be a reality we need to change society to better reflect them. This is, at its core, what “politics” really means. This episode explains why we need to understand how our values translate to the political spectrum, and where current candidates, parties and issues stand on that spectrum, if we want our spirituality to actually make the world a better place.

This episode explores all the nuances of the spiritual ideology of positivity, including the idea that we create our own reality, and where this ideology creates harm in its obsession with staying positive at all costs.
