Points clés
The Forgotten Art of Collective Joy
Dancing in the streets, ecstatic festivals, and communal celebrations were once central to human existence. For millennia, these weren't peripheral activities but the beating heart of community life. Today, we've largely forgotten this heritage, dismissing collective ecstasy as primitive or dangerous. Yet this amnesia comes at a steep cost. As we've systematically suppressed our capacity for communal joy, rates of depression and social isolation have skyrocketed. What if our modern malaise stems partly from losing touch with something fundamentally human-the transcendent experience of moving together in rhythm? What if the path to healing includes reclaiming these ancient practices of collective joy?
