    Humidity: Living With Uncertainty Without Collapsing

    Many people today aren’t experiencing collapse, but they are living with a steady, exhausting weight of uncertainty.

    In this episode of Soul Conversations with Don Ajené, Dr. Don Ajené explores what he calls “humidity”: the emotional, cognitive, and spiritual strain that accumulates when uncertainty becomes constant rather than temporary.

    This conversation invites listeners to slow down and reflect on the difference between situational uncertainty, which usually resolves, and existential uncertainty, which raises deeper questions about meaning, trust, and how to live well when familiar ground feels less stable.

    Drawing from psychology, embodied awareness, and lived experience, Dr. Don Ajené names why uncertainty feels heavier now: cognitive overload, decision fatigue, continuous ambiguity, and nervous systems stretched without sufficient recovery.

    Rather than offering solutions or quick reassurance, this episode creates space for discernment. It includes moments of guided breath and body-based reflection, inviting listeners to notice where uncertainty lives in the body, and how listening can be a form of wisdom rather than weakness.

    Key themes include emotional fatigue, ambiguity tolerance, existential questions of meaning, nervous system strain, and the importance of moving at humane rhythms.

    If you’re feeling worn down by questions that don’t have clear answers about direction, purpose, or what it means to live well in uncertain times, this episode offers companionship rather than instruction.

    You don’t need to resolve anything.

    You don’t need to hurry.

    You’re not alone in this weather.
