    The Root Cause of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

    Does Nature really need us to organize forest floors? And do we all suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) to some extent?   We often think of OCD as being a personal affliction, but as Thom explains in this episode, it's much broader than that, reflecting a general lack of trust in Nature's organizing power.   Thom explores OCD through the lenses of entropy, control, addiction, and inner order, and how we can collectively display OCD-like traits.    Thom explains how Vedic Meditation can complement existing treatments by helping the brain settle into a more orderly state., and he also shares a simple coming-to-your-senses technique that can help quiet obsessive momentum in the moment. Listen or watch to learn how a deeper experience of inner order can change the way we relate to the world around us.   Episode Highlights[00:45] The Search for Order [04:32] Heat Reveals Perceived Disorder [09:24] Nature Orders the Forest [12:50] When Order Turns Dysfunctional [16:22] Meditation Restores Inner Order [20:21] Q - What quiets obsessive compulsive thoughts?
