"I spent years apologizing for who I was until I realized I'd forgotten who that even was. Today's dive into reclaiming your basic human rights 🎧✨"

How we learned to distrust our own inner wisdom—and why reclaiming it might be the most radical act of our time

There's a particular kind of violence that happens in broad daylight, witnessed by everyone, perpetrated by no one in particular. It's the slow, steady erosion of a person's trust in their own inner knowing. It happens in classrooms where creativity is deemed "too unconventional." It happens in families where disappointing expectations feels like a moral failing. It happens in workplaces where fitting in matters more than authentic contribution.

This violence is so normalized, so woven into the fabric of what we call civilization, that we barely notice it anymore. But Ulrich Schaefer noticed. And in his Book of Rights, he's mapped out something that feels both revolutionary and ancient: a reminder of what we've given away without even realizing we had it to lose.

Book of Rights: Taking charge of your life  

by  Ulrich Schaffer 

This is Heliox: Where Evidence Meets Empathy

Independent, moderated, timely, deep, gentle, clinical, global, and community conversations about things that matter.  Breathe Easy, we go deep and lightly surface the big ideas.

Thanks for listening today!

Four recurring narratives underlie every episode: boundary dissolution, adaptive complexity, embodied knowledge, and quantum-like uncertainty. These aren’t just philosophical musings but frameworks for understanding our modern world.
