#101 - LA MENTE MIENTE: De la Cárcel Real a la Mental | Vicenç Alujas en Roca Project

Did you know that our minds lie to us? Vicenç Alujas has spent decades working in a psychiatric prison, observing and analyzing some of the most disturbed minds: psychopaths, narcissists, people who have committed atrocious acts. From all of this, he concluded that the mind lies, interprets, anticipates dangers, and can end up becoming a prison harder to escape than a real jail. In this episode of Roca Project, Alujas, a psychologist, criminologist, and sociologist, opens the doors to criminal psychology from the inside: what disorders prisoners commonly suffer from, why psychopaths in prison are not considered mentally ill, and what it means that a large percentage of prisoners today take psychotropic medication. Behind almost every admission, he says, there is a common thread: power, money, and fame. But who can truly be rehabilitated, and who cannot? One of the episode's most profound themes revolves around offering a path to inner freedom. Vicenç explains how to observe thoughts without identifying with them, how to stop overthinking, how to manage negative thoughts without giving them power, and how to calm the mind through antidotes such as meditation, gratitude, self-observation, and determination. If you have ever felt controlled by your thoughts, trapped in mental and emotional prisons, or simply want to learn to live more calmly, this episode is a roadmap to escape the prison we all carry within us: the one our own minds build. ► *advertisement This episode is presented in collaboration with Holded, more info at https://www.holded.com/es ► NEW EPISODE EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 7:30 PM.
