Laugh When The Abyss Stares Back At You (Mere Mortals Episode #99 - Musings)

There is the Nietzsche quote "when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you", but what is the optimal response to this? In this episode of 'Musings' Juan and Kyrin discuss: techniques for maintaining sanity when under large amounts of pressure/stress, correcting unhelpful attitudes and checking oneself, the use of mantras and TM in everyday life and some wisdom nuggets on being an optimist and constantly learning. As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
