Buddhism; Happiness and Suffering, and The Joys of Cooking with Carter Orieux PARANOID IN MY PARADISE™

    • Mental Health

Hello Everyone! On this episode of Paranoid in My Paradise @saimfarooqui @brooklynletson @jeremyritchie18 @carterorieux converse on the joys of cooking and the cathartic release it brings. Cooking is more than a hobby, it is a passion that can create mindfulness, bonds, forms of nurturing and self-care. We touch on the Buddhist perspective of Happiness and Suffering, everything we see and experience is a result of action; action, in turn, relates to actions of the mind, and the mind is without beginning. Suffering has an end because it can be eliminated by cultivating positive counterforces. "Every day we go try to chase things that make us feel good, whether it be buying something new to satisfy ourselves, or going to the gym to get that good feeling. As soon as that ends you don't feel that anymore, the happiness it brought. They call these fleeting vibrations, fleeting as it does not stay very long, so what you are left with is either nothing or sadness. On the flip side, we are always trying to avoid negative things, we are always trying to push them away. Instead, Buddhism tells us to accept things for what they are" - Carter Orieux

Does happiness have a different meaning to every person? What does it mean to you? Do you think we can ever have true happiness? What are things that can boost a mood? Join us on today's episode for some deep insight.
