Episode #35: Do painful things always have to lead to suffering?
It is easy to say that pain is part of the being human and suffering is optional -but when you are in the middle of it, this can be difficult to hear. In this episode, we break down this concept- with a focus on mental pain. We discuss the mindfulness techniques and exploring awareness concepts that create some space between the painful situation and the reaction to it. We ask the ultimate questions- are you willing to give up your story to alleviate suffering and how does it feel to be connected to something that isn’t suffering? A guided meditation is provided so that you may find your own answers. Awareness just could be a generous gift you give to your suffering self this holiday season.
