In today\\u2019s episode, I talk about a familiar, but super important topic: The Beginner\'s Mind.

As you\\u2019ve heard me say plenty of times, with Presence, Acceptance, Compassion, and Curiosity, we can practice well being and positively impact our own experiences as well as positively impact those whose lives we touch every day.

In the episode today I discuss all four of these concepts, but I go into Curiosity the deepest.

In anything we can possibly know, there are three spheres of knowledge:

There is what we know.

There is what we know we don\\u2019t know.

And then there is the third sphere, which dwarfs the other two: What we don\\u2019t know we don\\u2019t know.

The Beginner\\u2019s Mind embraces that third sphere.

And when we approach every situation and circumstance in our lives with this quality of The Beginner\'s Mind: that there MUST be something we don\\u2019t know we don\\u2019t know about this thing, it shifts our entire view and promotes Presence, Acceptance, and Compassion.

And then, all of our stress and big, disruptive emotional reactions begin to change.

This is a skill. And like any other skill, it is trainable!
