You Don’t Read Because of Guilt (Not Lack of Time)

You Don’t Read Because of Guilt (Not Lack of Time)1 may24 min

If you think you don’t read because you “don’t have time,” this video won’t help you organize your schedule; it will make you uncomfortable.

Because the problem isn’t time; it’s what shows up the moment you finally could stop.

That feeling of guilt.

That voice telling you that you should be doing something useful.

Or being available for others.

In this video, we explore what is really happening when you try to read and can’t sustain it:

— The conflict between caring and producing

— The tension between two deep psychological structures

— And why reading becomes an act of withdrawal

Through analytical psychology and Gothic symbolism, this is not just about reading; it’s about something more uncomfortable: your permission to exist without being available.
