I didn’t start severance season 2 yet and this cast isn’t about the show (so no spoilers!), but more so the concept.

I would never sever different parts of my consciousness but innies and outies got me thinking about eastern philosophies and the general concept of detachment (which comes up a lot in Buddhism)

Over the years and through various practices (including childbirth and yoga) I’ve learned how to separate mental pain from physical pain. 

Something like labor can be brutally painful, but you can train your mind to detach. The physical sensation remains, but the suffering does not.  The pain is still there but it doesn’t hurt in the same way. 

Once you learn detachment you can draw on it during challenging times to reduce suffering.

It’s like severance except it’s temporary and you’re in control. 

Might sound woo woo, and I’m not saying it necessarily comes easily, but it’s a really good life skill to practice. 

Namaste 🧘

I don’t start season one yet.  Recommended?

Whatever your decentralized, borderless, neutral, censorship-resistant open blockchain question is, the answer is YES… to Crypto!

Definitely.  I was surprised how much I enjoyed the first season- very different than all the formulaic no-risk slop that Netflix has become
