Episode #22. Pleasures people chase to feel good

Human beings experience. This is a universal truth. But not only do we have experience, we need it, we thrive on it, and sometimes, we crave extreme ones. However, out of the whole plethora of human experience, there are certain things we definitely want to feel while there are others we are desperately trying to avoid feeling, and will go to extreme lengths to accomplish just that. In this episode Misha and Marina dive deep into this very provocative topic in order to find out why some people can be perfectly happy without masturbation, drugs, self-injury or certain sex practices , while others are throwing themselves head first into those extreme experiences. In this episode, you may find answers to the following questions: - Is actively seeking these experiences a way to escape certain difficult emotions, avoid other experiences, or just an attempt to live new, exciting things? - Do these practices really satisfy a human need or do they end up creating an even more intense lack of contentment? - How to deal with such “hunger”? - What changes our relationship with all the “shoulds” and “shouldn'ts” we live with? You may even be surprised by finding out how the second law of Newton can help you understand the reasons behind human behaviour.. The episode is really worth listening to.
