transcending the self: the importance of gaining a higher perspective in your recovery journey

A voicemail from Thiago in Brazil and a direct message from Noura in Egypt reminded me why I started this podcast in the first place and why so many of us resonate with the concept of feeling starved at a spiritual level – constantly grappling with feelings of brokenness and perpetual emptiness. There’s only one way out of the pits of hell caused by this thinking: zooming the f*ck out. If you want to learn more about zooming out and considering higher/broader perspectives, I’ve included a few places to start below. (Don’t forget, this is YOUR journey – you need to follow your OWN spiritual breadcrumbs.) RESOURCES: “How Do We Break the Habit of Excessive Thinking?” with Eckhart Tolle“How to re-frame a challenging moment and feel empowered?” with Gabor Maté MD“Let your relationships become a vehicle for freedom” with Ram Dass“The principal of not forcing” with Alan Watts“Holding the tension of the opposites” with Marion Woodman Enjoyed this episode?
