Fraudulent Buddhists? Locals Questions Answered
"I’m visiting Thailand in April. As I am doing my research about the country and Buddhism, I have come across a practice that seems to me to be unjust and morally questionable.

Why You Attack Yourself! Listener Question
In this episode, I examine the complexities of social anxiety linked to internalized critical voices from parents. Using a metaphor of facing a bully, I discuss how self-attack emerges as a defense mechanism against childhood abuse. I emphasize the need for open conversations with parents and the importance of therapy in navigating these issues.
I also propose reframing inner critics as protective forces rather than adversaries, advocating a healthier self-relationship.
