About Ways of Being

Today's systems create conditions that exploit our nature and challenge our well-being. Businesses prioritize shareholder interests with a relentless "move fast and break things" mentality, favouring quantity over quality and contributing to overconsumption that harms the health of individuals, communities and our environment. Technologies accelerate to digitize our lives, reshaping culture and identity, while the real-world human state struggles to keep up. "For-pleasure" algorithms in advertising, social media and addictive apps introduce significant harms, including social perfectionism, demand for instant gratification and rising levels of stress and anxiety. Our very nature is being challenged by these systems, leading to feelings of constant disconnection, distress, doubt, and dissatisfaction—what we call the “D state.” At Ways of Being, we believe that in the absence of constant disruption, people can flourish in the “C state,”– feeling connected, calm, confident, and content. Our mission is to make existing models obsolete with the primary goal of cultivating well-being, using the “C state” as our North Star.
