The True Source of Toxicity

About this episode

We're often told that we live in a world full of toxic behaviour, but is it the world that's toxic or is it our view of it that gives it a toxic flavor?   In this episode, Thom explores the true source of toxicity: the stress we carry that makes us sensitive to the inputs from the outside world.   As always Thom has a solution that allows us to remove those stresses and develop the resilience we need to be less disturbed by the forms and phenomena we come into contact with on a day-to-day basis.   Listen to or watch this episode for a grounded Vedic perspective on toxicity, stress reactivity, and the invincible integrity of the inner Self.   Episode Highlights [00:45] What Makes Something Toxic?
