Mental health and spiritual growth


For some time I’m thinking about how people can express feelings, share with others and establish links with them in a better way.  The occidental paradigm talks about how rationality is the best recipe for all our questioning but, in my own experience, that advice made me take bad decisions when I used the rationality and ignore my feelings.
Maybe, Now I don’t know what spiritual development is or how it works and I know this speech has been co-opted for capitalist discourse too (like many other things), but I don’t think that this fact can destroy the importance of growing up and feeling great. I think that it is important to discover how to do real relationships in a so individualist world, and do that with organization and rebellion that can be a revolution, not the only one, of course.
I don´t want to sound hippie, but these ideas should be important especially when we live in a country with so many problems about mental health, bullying, anxiety, anguish, are examples of problems that affect to the most of people in Chile. This weekend I heard a person commits suicide every 42 ours.  
I would like that in the future, kids can be educated in schools that pay attention to their emotional education I they can live their lives with less pressure and anxiety, and they could be a generation that knows how to do when others feeling like this.
