Mental Freedom

Mental Freedom

We all run our lives according to social conventions. Some are obvious - like the expectation to have a job, a steady income, and a community where you fit in. Others less so - the expectation to live with a purpose, have a circle of friends, and maintain an upbeat attitude toward life. The hard thing about social conventions is that we don't know where they stop and where our self begins. As a result, we often don't have a sense of mental freedom - what it means to think, feel, and believe in a free way. In this Philosophy Salon, we will start addressing and explaining mental prisons, conventions, and the way a human being can be bound - and freed.
