Letting Go Of The Struggle: A Path To Ease And Freedom

With Kiran Patel

We are sold the idea of struggle as an inevitable part of life. We all encounter ups and downs but there is a way of accessing wisdom that exists for us all to guide us in our lives that exists beyond our every day thinking and the struggles that those thoughts create.

Lesson 1

Have You Been Sold Struggle?

We are all sold the idea of struggle but we are never spoken to about ease and how we can include more of it into our lives. Living in a constant state of struggle can leave us feeling like we are living with a clenched fist rather than an open palm. In this lesson we look at how we may feel overwhelmed by our lives and where that feeling is coming from.

Lesson 2

What Are You Thinking?

Because our thoughts can seem so close to us we are not always aware of what it is that we are thinking. Yet those thoughts are affecting our feelings and in turn our actions. Where there is overthinking there is struggle and where there is space, wisdom can come through.

Lesson 3

You Are Not Your Thoughts

Lesson 4

What Are Your Habitual Thoughts?

Do you know what your habitual thoughts are? They can accompany us around like a soundtrack playing in the background. Yet, no thought has a power of its own. It requires our attention, it needs us to add meaning to it for it to come alive within us.
