I see Maslow's hierarchy is based on emotional needs. Under all the things I mentioned, they affect our emotions in some way our other, especially in bad times. Yes our inner spirits also have to be nourished.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Maslow claimed that until the physiological needs (such as air, water, food) are met, we consider them the most important ones. Once the physiological needs are met, until safety the needs are met (protection from physical harm by other people or animals), they become the most important for us. This continues until the top of the pyramid.
But, as you said, every met or unmet need affects our emotions. That's one of the main cons of his theory actually, he was very exclusive, while in the reality everything is more interconnected.
Cheers! : )
I love it when people put in their penny's worth. Yes, there is a lot more to life than the basic norms. That's what I love about life. There is always another angle to a fact. And that is what I like using in my blogs. It gets people thinking and exploring beyond what is and what people expect.
