In this episode, Michelle and Lenéa Sims discuss cultural relativism and its implications for understanding spirituality, mental health, and different ways of knowing. They explore how cultural lenses shape our perspectives and how colonialism has imposed Western views onto other cultures. Lenéa Sims shares insights from her studies in indigenous and decolonial psychologies. Tune in to learn how embracing a more spiritual perspective and cultural humility can help us better understand both others and ourselves. Key Takeaways: Our clothing choices can shape how we perceive ourselves and how others perceive us, affecting our confidence and interactions. Cultural relativism asserts that cultures are best comprehended when examined within their own unique contexts, rather than being assessed through the lens of external cultural norms. Spirituality and evidence-based approaches can each offer valid ways of comprehending experiences, depending on the cultural context. Holding space for multiple perspectives and uncertainties is vital for understanding various worldviews. Labels and diagnoses can sometimes be less useful for understanding ourselves than noticing our natural ebbs and flows. Finding the balance between obligations and allowing oneself to move at a natural pace is challenging but important. 📚 Resources and Links: Enclothed Cognition study in the Journal of Experimental Psychology Hear all of this and more every Tuesday morning by subscribing here Sign up here for your weekly wink from the Universe and receive curated links to tickle your brain and coax out your intuition⁠! 📩 Connect with host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Michelle Pellizzon-Lipsitz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠team Holisticism⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe and support the podcast on Spotify here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe and support the podcast on Apple Podcasts here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our free Holisticism Hub community of intuitives and creators here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ This podcast is edited by Softer Sounds Studios --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/twelfthhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/twelfthhouse/support
