S3Ep4: The Art of Autobiography

An Unqualified Guide to the Good Life

In this episode we discuss the extent to which we think in words rather than other mediums (be they sensory, emotional, or other) and why it is that we have a voice in our heads that needs to vocalise thought even when there's no one beside ourselves to talk to. Some consideration is also given to the notion of 'self-narrating' our lives, and the tools that can be used effectively to mould (honestly!!) self-image, with a prominent focus on journaling as a complimentary yet entirely distinct skill to meditation in this particular context. There's some mention of psychedelic trees (allegedly!) and unorthodox gospels, and the introduction grows more rambling and unformatted by the episode, (pretty soon we'll just be barking at each other for the first 5 minutes - there was in fact some barking in this episode, but it does not originate with either of the hosts).
