Opening The Door

What is spiritual psychosis? How can we help ourselves avoid it and recognize it in ourselves? Those are the questions we'll be discussing today with Victoria! Victoria brings a grounded and educated approach to spirituality and the topic of spiritual psychosis. We discuss how conspiracy theories and spirituality overlap, establishing a healthy baseline for ourselves, and recognizing when we've dug ourselves too deep into our own spiritual points of views.
