Join the tribe here: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/Do you wake up in the morning with that dreadful feeling of "productivity debt"? For many years I did and I realised that I could be labelled - in psychological terms- as an "insecure overachiever". Inspired by the author Oliver Burkeman and his book "Meditations for Mortals" I decided to make a pondering video about this feeling and share 4 things we can do to combat it. If its true that AI will eventually take most of our jobs, then maybe this is an opportunity for all humans to find other ways to feel self-worth beyond just productivity.
Join my school here: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/After my last pondering episode, someone from the Resilient Roots community got in touch asking how we can stay informed with whats going on in the world without losing our inner peace and becoming hopeless. So I pondered about it for a while and found some useful ideas from looking at the origin of the word "media" as well as Buddhist philosophy.if you want to support my work in general then consider becoming a Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/TomFandabidozi#InnerPeace #StayInformed #TheMediumIsTheMessage#StillnessInTheStorm #FandabiDeepdive #ResilientRoots
Join my Survival School here: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/Last week I saw some of the latest examples of AI created video making our already confusing and divided world even more confusing. While in a bit of a depression about it all, I pulled out some positivity and thought of 4 action points that we can all implement as individuals to help us stay grounded in this age of illusion. Let me know in the comments if you have any ideas on how we can stay connected and sane too?If you'd like to support my work, consider becoming a Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/TomFandabidoziYou can watch the video version of this ponder here: https://youtu.be/mjOuFxhzCF0

Join the tribe: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/In this weeks pondering I share some ideas from the recent Resilient Roots gathering, where we lived for a few days around the basic foundations of life: Attention, Breathing & Circulation (ABC). This included creating barriers to habitual smartphone checking which some people said was the highlight of the whole weekend.

Join the tribe here: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/Watch the video version of this here: https://youtu.be/vKSxtOENXic?si=MKiwkV3KmpkyHiSvIn this weeks pondering I am reflecting on the recent Resilient Roots gathering. On the last night of the gathering we had an old school Highland Ceilidh, which is simply a sharing of creative expressions (music, stories, songs, poems, jokes etc). A common response to this is people feel very nervous about sharing anything, which I think is a real shame and is partly due to our culture of "talent- shows" which I fell have put the feel into people sharing their creative expression. But in a world increasingly dominated by AI, perhaps expression of genuine lived experience will be the future currency, the very thing that separates us from machines is our imperfect- perfection. So don't be scared to share whats in your soul!

In this "Pondering" episode I ask whether humans are parasites or partners to the forest? I share a bit of my 4 year journey managing a woodland in the Scottish Highlands and the effects i've seen on biodiversity. I walk through real examples of things I have done and reflect on shifting the mindset from “human = problem” to “right relationship.”The VIDEO VERSION for these can also be found on my 2nd channel here: https://youtu.be/IjyAHEedMyY?si=Myv4tJCL_vhtY-8H

What are we losing as we humans become more "domesticated"?In this video, I share a story about a fiercely aggressive Chihuahua that made me rethink what it means to be human — and what happens when we tame our wild side too much. From the psychology of our primal "shadow" to the cost of modern comfort, let's explore how we can find balance in the process of Human domestication.If you're curious about deepening this journey, check out Resilient Roots Survival School — an online learning community where we explore survival skills, rewilding, and the mindset needed to live closer to nature.: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/Watch video version here: https://www.youtube.com/@FandabiDeepdive
