Summary

Have you ever felt completely overwhelmed by everything happening in the world and wondered why your mind can’t seem to relax anymore? In this episode, I break down the psychology of being “too aware,” why our brains were never designed to process this much information, and how constant consumption of negativity can quietly drain your energy, increase anxiety, and disconnect you from yourself. I want to help you stop carrying the weight of the entire world, become more intentional about what you consume, and focus on becoming the most grounded, healed version of yourself instead.

0:31.7	routine based on science. So if you want that, once again, it's free at the perfect morning
0:36.0	routine.com. Today, we're going to be talking about
0:38.7	the psychology of people who are too aware. Because if I'm being honest, you were never supposed
0:45.7	to know this much. And I don't mean like in a philosophical type of way. I mean like a neurological,
0:52.3	biological, human type of way. You were not designed
0:57.0	to wake up in the morning and within five minutes know what bad is happening across the world,
1:03.0	what tragedy just hit another country, what somebody else on the internet is doing or what
1:09.0	they just bought or how much money they're making
1:10.9	or what just some random strangers doing with their life or how you happen to be behind quote unquote
1:16.8	compared to everyone else that you've never met that happens to be on the internet and still try
1:21.9	to then feel okay for the rest of that day and so in's episode, it's not about being ignorant to the world

1:41.2	your brain and you understand who you are as a human, your brain was built for a tribe, not the entire planet.
1:48.2	And in a tribe, you're talking 50, 100, maybe 150 people.
1:53.5	And for most of human history, that's what we were aware of, which is our family, our village, the immediate environment that we were in. That's it.
2:03.3	Nothing else. So if something that happened that we knew about, we were close enough to be able to
2:09.4	help, or we were close enough for us to know we need to run and get away. And this is really,
