Lately, I've been wondering about meditation as a potential hack for social anxiety. If non-proliferation of unwanted thought patterns is desirable, that is.
I also wonder how much serenity is too much when interacting socially. Confidence and a degree of unflappability are useful, but a zombie trance is unnerving and putoffish.
There's a wide range of serenity that would merely be considered "laid-back", which is generally considered a positive characteristic.
