Idiot Mystic

Idiot Mystic is where the podcast, the blog, and the rabbit holes meet. Strange skies, stranger company.
Maybe you’re here because your brain won’t shut up.
Maybe you’re chasing questions that don’t have easy answers.
Or maybe you just want a corner of the internet that isn’t afraid to get weird, mix research with wonder, and laugh at the mess along the way. That’s Idiot Mystic...part podcast, part blog, part late-night rabbit hole.
In this reflection, we explore what mystic writer Mirabai Starr calls holy longing — the deep ache that comes from remembering something infinite while living in a finite world.
It’s the ache of being full of love in a world that doesn’t always know what to do with it.
We go directly into the matrix and talk about one of its primary mechanisms, doomscrolling .
I tried to talk about how it hooks your brain and impacts your soul . There's even a little ( or a lot depending on who you ask ) science behind your scrolling habits, why your brain loves those quick dopamine hits, and how neuroplasticity is making those endless social media sessions harder to break.
