Season 2 Episode 05: Idleness
Why is idleness so looked down upon in our culture?
In a society that prioritizes doing, this episode we revel in the joys of idleness, "just" being.
“If we could be idle, how much more in tune might we be with our natural systems? Maybe we wouldn’t be in all these ecological crises that we’ve created as humans, if we could just stop and be and pay attention to what’s around us?”
“When you allow yourself to slow down and stop, all of the things you’re running from can catch up. And if you’ve been running from a lot of things, being idle is a terrifying possibility.”
“Infinite Growth happens inside of us and between each other, not in the market.”
