In a recent session with my counselor, Eleanor, the themes of acceptance, surrender, and embracing powerlessness came up once again. These things are both very important and incredibly challenging for me and so many of us. On this episode, I talk about why each of these are essential, especially right now, and also why they can be difficult for us to embody. I also share a specific technique for how we can more deeply and effectively make peace with anything and everything we’re facing these days.
