The Masks We Wear Conversations and Meditations

    • Philosophy

In this episode, Virgil goes into the idea of wearing masks to hide our real feelings and our true selves. In this discussion, we will investigate the concept of masks and why we choose to wear them. Masks can hurt our relationships and, ultimately, our lives. Masking our emotions is a coping mechanism that stops us from genuinely processing them and integrating them into our character. People who wear masks are driven by trauma, and we all experience different types of trauma in our lives. A mask covers up wounds and doesn’t allow those wounds to heal. It hides the pain. In this episode, you'll learn how to take off the mask and better regulate and manage negative emotions and a negative self-image. If you want to be honest with others, you first have to be honest with yourself. Wounds need air to heal. Its time to take your mask off, will you join me?
