Bodies of Knowledge

By Bo Forbes

Exploring the science, psychology, social context, and practice of embodiment

Bo is a talented writer, and the theme of embodiment is fascinating. I love learning about "unconventional" ways to facilitate my own well-being, and this Substack explores one of them. Give it a read!

Tangentially Speaking with Chris Ryan

Small-batch, hand-crafted, artisanal. From bestselling author and OG podcaster Chris Ryan.

Chris Ryan's writings have made a huge impact on my life, much like those of Erich Fromm. They overlap with Fromm's in a beautiful way. What Ryan shares about how we lived before the onset of agriculture is more proof that society is sick, and looking at his writings side-by-side with Fromm's is a fascinating thing to do. Oh, and, Civilized to Death is a must read.

Therapy for Social Change

By Rebecca Hyman

Tools and strategies to heal the self and join with others to free the world from systemic violence and oppression

I love that this newsletter highlights a blindspot in traditional therapy. This Substack has brought a new awareness of the institutionalized ways we overlook so much of the population.

Foreword to Civilization

By Scott Santens

Stuff from Scott Santens that's not necessarily about the idea of unconditional basic income (UBI), but is still about creating a better world for all of humanity through evidence-based non-zero-sum systemic thinking.

Erich Fromm was a strong proponent of Universal Basic Income (UBI), having suggested it in ways we might move forward in his book "The Sane Society." Scott is one of the leading thinkers, researchers and proponents of Universal Basic Income today. Here, he writes about UBI on occasion, but mostly shares some of the other interesting ideas swirling around in that wonderful brain of his. You can find more of his writings on UBI at ScottSantens.com
