Ep18 | Surrender- How to Let Go of Attachments and Stop Resisting Life
It is safe to say the word ‘surrender’ can carry a few negative connotations with its meaning; thoughts like defeat, failure, or giving up. People often believe that surrendering is something that we need to force ourselves to do. This is false. Being able to surrender means being able to let go and allow!
How does surrendering look in your life? Are there areas of your career, relationships, or personal growth that you are always trying to control? There is an aspect of pride we all must overcome in order to successfully surrender each day. Recognizing this is the first step.
In this podcast, we talk about different areas that are difficult to fully surrender in. Experiencing the power of letting go can be very restoring in your life. Be challenged to find the areas of your life that need surrendering. We hope you enjoy!
We mentioned the movie, “Doing Time, Doing Vipassana,” which is about how a 10-minute silent meditation retreat transformed prisoner’s lives in India. Here is the link in case you wanted to watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkxSyv5R1sg
