Ep. 97 - MATTIAS DESMET - The Psychology of Totalitarianism & Understanding Mass Formation

Mattias Desmet is recognised as the world’s leading expert on the theory of mass formation as it applies to the Covid-19 pandemic.   His new book, The Psychology of Totalitarianism offers us insight into how and why populations are so easily controlled, and how it somehow follows the same pattern with each new global or national challenge we face, from the witch hunts, to the Holocaust, to Covid and more.   In this episode we discuss how it happens, and our role as individuals to be able to stop history from repeating itself.   Buy the book here ​​https://amzn.to/3WjMb0C   ***   This season of Reconditioned is kindly sponsored by Sensate, the palm-sized, infrasonic device that will not only help reduce anxiety, but will also deepen your meditations.

Om Podcasten

Reconditioned was created by host Lauren Vaknine, as a hub for all things wellness and self-development, not just a niche collection of topics within that, so that people can integrate the healing of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of self, which, as Lauren found in her own journey, really is the only way to achieve complete, whole-person healing. After being diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis aged 2, Lauren was wheelchair-bound by 18. After more than a decade immersed in intensive self-study, learning everything there was to learn about the human body and mind, Lauren finally reconditioned herself back to wellness and is now a fully able-bodied business woman, leading holistic life coach, speaker, writer, podcast host and mum of 2, with a passion for helping others achieve the same levels of transformation in their own lives. Tune into Reconditioned to find what you’re seeking in community, support, and answers to all your burning wellbeing questions, from which type of magnesium you need to how to manage an energetic death, healing trauma, conscious parenting, inner child healing, spirituality and beyond!
