Sun An, "Full World View"
Cognitive behavioral therapy doesn’t work. Mindfulness is the gluten-free diet for the brain. With every mental fad eventually revealed to be nothing more than a desperate delusion driven by the desire to find life less terrible than both experience and clarity reveal it to be, what are we to turn to next in our ongoing effort to kid ourselves into thinking things will actually be okay? I vote music. Shut down everything else you’ve got going on around you and take ten minutes to listen to this. At the end of it things will seem a little bit better. Of course that is only temporary, and, as with CBT and meditation and everything else, probably illusory, but at least this is free and you don’t have to go somewhere else and sit in a room with other people who are just as annoying as you are. Which has got to be worth something. Enjoy. [Via]
