About the Urbanmonks Thinktank
The two-minute version
We have millions of people emotionally struggling - anxiety, depression, loneliness. In many countries, suicides now outnumber murders two-to-one. In the United States alone, 30 million people are on medication for emotional issues.
Our approach is rather straight-forward: we try and fix the individual.
We try and fix the injured individual through therapy and medicine, and this is essential, life-saving work. We are diagnosing and trying to fix the individual, trying to change our human emotional needs.
But we are addressing only one side of the problem. And the one that is slow to change. What if we were to propose diagnosing the culture? We have been trying to fix the seed, but we must consider how to fix the soil in which we all grow and live.
