Summary
This epic is a deep-dive, fluid, real conversation with one of my best friends Rosie Acosta just about everything happening right now. We speak about feeling the overwhelm from the array of perspectives out there, the Social Dilemma documentary, pro’s and con’s about fact-checking vs censorship, conspiracy theory rabbit holes, feeling like you don’t know who to believe.. And how to come back to your breath + body to find balance within it all. I put this conversation out because I know so many of us feel confused and overwhelmed with everything happening in the media and wanted to show you that you aren’t alone and let you hear two other sisters voice their ideas, concerns and musings throughout this unusual time.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Dima, I'm Shreyshankara. |
| 0:06.0 | I'm part of a deep, deep, Dima, I'm Shreyshankara. |
| 0:12.0 | Namaste, it's Sahara Rose, and welcome back to the highest self-podcast. |
| 0:16.0 | A place where you discuss what makes you your soul's highest involvement. |
| 0:20.0 | If it's your first time listening, this episode is going to be very different than my other ones |
| 0:26.0 | because it's just a deep dive conversation with one of my best friends about just everything happening in the world. |
| 0:35.0 | We're going through a time of a lot of chaos, whether you're on a spiritual journey or not, we are all feeling it. |
| 0:42.0 | And this year has really been unlike any other with the series of events that our souls in some way chose to experience, though challenging and confronting and often painful. |
| 0:55.0 | And this year ain't over and it can feel like things are just getting more chaotic. |
| 1:03.0 | So in this episode, I wanted to discuss just friend to friend the types of conversations that I'm having with my community about navigating what information and documentaries and all these things that we are seeing in the world |
| 1:20.0 | and how to find balance amidst all of this craziness. |
| 1:25.0 | And I think it's fine to admit that we all feel overwhelmed. |
| 1:29.0 | I myself do as well, and I think that's why it's more important than ever that we can speak about whatever it is that we're feeling in my last solo cast. |
| 1:39.0 | I spoke about, well, two solo castes ago, I spoke about why it's so important to actually speak about the fears and the uncertainties that you're experiencing |
| 1:49.0 | rather than just bypass over them because it's only through going into those fears that we're able to see whether there is a potential or unmet need underneath it and bring about healing. |
| 2:02.0 | So though it may seem easier to kind of pretend that the world around us isn't happening. |
| 2:08.0 | The truth is it is. |
| 2:10.0 | And the only way we're going to find peace through it is to have these conversations and feel like we've been able to explore different concerns that we may have, different belief systems that we may have been shown or told and finer our own way through it. |
| 2:30.0 | So this is a conversation. It's not here to really tell you what to think. It's just us looking at, for example, the social dilemma being a big documentary that came out about social media and the algorithm and how a lot of these social media companies are kind of selling our information to other people or big brands to share ads with us. |
| 2:56.0 | And also what's on the other side of that, you know, going back to just having six channels on mainstream media and all of the different theories that we hear and how sometimes going into some of the theories can actually bring us to an even more fear based state. |
| 3:12.0 | But the other side of that is to not question the world that we're told we live in. So nothing is one sided. Everything has dualistic views. And that's what I shared in my last soul cast as well that things just aren't so black and white. |
| 3:28.0 | So this conversation is really an exploration about the different viewpoints and conversations that people are having right now and then despite it all how to find balance, how to find sovereignty and how to find peace. |
