Metal therapist reacts: SOAD, Korn, Slipknot

Therapist reacts to System of a Down's "Aerials" and "B.Y.O.B"
(HeartSupport - Talk About Your Mental Health) March 4th, 2024: Imagine a therapist who uses metal lyrics to discuss the importance of shifting our perspective and releasing control. Most people think the path to a better life involves controlling every possible aspect of our life.

What are these singers singing about?
But the truth is there is so much we will never be able to control. So the best path to a free life is by shifting our perspective to a larger "aerial" overview. This SOAD song calls us to release control and trust that in the big picture everything makes sense.

We are all connected yet many of us live in a state of blissful ignorance until we suddenly realize something isn't right.

Maybe it's politically, maybe it's in our personal life. But once we realize that something isn't right, we have the opportunity to courageously confront that thing to try to enact change.

Taylor reacts to Slipknot's "People=Shit" on Feb. 13, 2024: People often adopt this belief as a way to protect themselves from the pain of loss or disappointment. This belief also prevents us from the power of connection. The song calls us to FIGHT against this belief and take responsibility for creating a better life for ourselves and those around us. #slipknot #coreytaylor #therapist.
