Attachments create pain for us because it creates the need to control the world. We’re always trying to reduce our attachments.

Where does anxiety come from? Do we create it out of nowhere? Is it random? Is it a cover for another emotion? In polyvagal theory we can understand how body states can turn into emotions.

It can be really painful needing things from people. It’s difficult to get our needs met, and it’s painful that we can’t control the outside world. Sometimes we become overly self-reliant in trying to not need anything. Unfortunately, you cannot un-need anything. In this pursuit, you end up abandoning yourself. Today, may we be able to own our needs so we can confront the fear of not getting them met.

No matter how much we work with ourselves on our trauma, shortcomings, or quirks we’d rather not have, we will always be dealing with the ego. Today, instead of listening to the ego, we may detach and know that what it says isn’t the ultimate truth.

The entire range of human emotions are valid and meant to be felt in their fullness. Instead of pushing down negative emotions and accept positive emotions, we are called to feel all emotions with the same fullness. Today, may we accept our emotions so we don’t have to store them away.

We are here to learn. We receive our learning in a number of ways and to hear the messages we must be in contact with our higher source. We come to new realizations that feel like they are coming from somewhere outside ourselves. All human beings have the equipment to receive spiritual guidance but we must perfect our skill. If we are unaware of our spiritual guidance our learning must come to us in physical ways. Over time, the messages will get more intense and more stark. Today, may we be in tune with our spiritual guidance so it does not have to scream at us.

There are a few ways that spiritual wisdom treats feelings. There is to transcend feelings and do actions despite how we feel, and then there is inviting feelings in as though they were good friends. There are certainly some feelings we feel that we treat with more respect than others. Today, may we be balanced about our feelings. May we not react to them, but also respect them as a guest in our home.

Learning to be yourself is the most important thing we ever learn to do. Beneath all the layers of uneasiness and fear, there is discord. There is a constant sense within the body that something needs to be corrected. Underneath it all, there is wanting to be known and loved for exactly who we are. Today, we can cultivate unconditional worthiness within ourselves. To learn to be ourselves and we with ourselves, that is the greatest gift we can gain.

Addictions can manifest in our life in many different forms. It doesn’t have to be about a substance, it could be to a person or to a particular behavior. An addiction is characterized by an unnatural attraction to something that has an obcessive and compulsive nature. An addiction can never be satisfied, and so no matter how many times we come back to that thing we cannot experience satiation. When we’re in addiction we are always trying to medicate something within our being that needs healing. Through the addiction we can temporarily fix our problem, but only through soul work can we heal the problem long term.

Considering the deepest love you have ever experienced. The Universe, Source, Spirit, or God, whatever name you have for a higher power, has an even greater love for us than that strongest love we can imagine. The second greatest love we can ever experience is the love we have for ourselves. The love between two people is always imperfect, but the love between out own self and our soul can be perfect. No one on this earth can love you as perfectly as you can.

There are those days when spirituality just can’t penetrate our being. We can’t always be in touch with God or do great meditation. On days when we can’t find our positivity or our spirituality, we can get through it. Getting through it is spiritual even if we don’t feel it at the time. Just feeling whatever you’re feeling is exactly where you should be. We do our best to be where we’re at and not to create too much wreckage along the way.

WHO, WHY, WHAT, WHERE, HOW are we? What’s the purpose? Are we supposed to stock pile money, have a safety net so that we can retire, then die? Are we supposed to solve the future so that we can always be ok? If we’re struggling with taking our life situation incredibly seriously that may be a sign we’re in fear. Today, remember to play, remember to be in the moment, and get in touch with the meaning contained in every minute.

There are stories we tell about our identity, our life, our experiences, that serve to create pain in our life. This is called victomhood or martyrdom. We carry pain stories that become apart of our identity. Indeed, we view and interpret the world through our pain at times. There may be no other way for us to express our pain except through victimhood. Today, we honor our pain without needing to tell a story about it. We can feel it, instead of telling stories about it.

There are times we deny things we know. We pretend that we don’t know what we know, so that we don’t have to confront reality. Denial is a practice in insanity: what could be more insane than knowing reality and denying what’s happening. No one can be forced out of their denial. We must arrive there ourselves.

Emotions have a really cool spiritual purpose. They act as sacred messengers to us, energizers, or ways to get us to act in a particular way. We have ideas in this world about what we’re supposed to be doing or being. This controlling of emotions is a destructive way of being. May we learn to allow all emotions today.

This is the idea that we’re always trying to remove and resolve problems for our life so we can reach a promised land of happiness. Once I get that done I will be happy! If I can just get on the other side of this week I will be happy. Today, we can understand that life is about having problems. Solving our difficulties is the fruit of life, may we enjoy each moment instead of trying to clear and resolve constantly.

This episode is a little life hack you can use to help get motivated. On the really good days AND the really bad days we can truly work with our perspective. “Bad” days will have us in a very reactive state. We will feel we are not receiving from others, a state of needing, or a state of wanting. Proactive is much different. It says what am I doing or giving, it’s not about what I am receiving or wanting. We can use this “trick” to always turn a tough day into a good day.

Every single person has a particular thing that will make them absolutely crumble: a person, a sentence, a word. For me, that sentence is “you are not enough.” What is it for you? Most of the work that we are doing in a spiritual practice is pointed in the direction of our sore spots. Today we may become more aware of our wounded places.

If we could have unconditional faith in a higher power we would be truly free. Often our faith in God isn’t unconditional, but we do actually have practice with this concept. We have unconditional faith in our perspective and thought formations. What you make in your own mind is what you put your faith into, just to prove to yourself what you believe is correct.

Notes on distructiveness. When we’re not in spiritual alignment we may be like a tornado going from town to town wrecking everything in our path. There are many human pains and sufferings caused by people’s spiritual misalignment. In the moment, when we are distructive, we will have a sense that we are only hurting ourselves. That may not be true. May we heal our self distructive and outwardly distructive patterns today.

We live in quite a pent up and nonconfrontational society. Passive aggression is very common and many people have piles of anger inside. That is not spiritual! The experience and expression of anger is part of the normal range of human emotions. May you find your path to expressing it in a healthy way. Today, you’ve got to start with anger before you can get to acceptance.

We have wounds that others touch with their words. When we’ve had an extreme reaction that doesn’t seem to fit the situation, we’re probably reacting to an old wound! The more wounds you have, the more people will be able to bother you.

Giving help can be a messy thing! Sometimes we may feel taken advantage of, or we have trouble navigating boundaries, or we may find that we don’t have any at all. For some of us, this was the reason we avoided giving help altogether. Luckily, there are ways of giving help that be both spiritual and practical, and can work for us.

Asking for help is one of the most difficult things in this life. It’s also a very silly and unnecessary way we humans create pain in our lives. We try and be so independent and strong, and ultimately it’s self-defeating and destructive to not ask for help. May we all learn to ask for more help, that the universe may bring that to us.

You can’t solve a feeling, you just have to feel it. Wise words said by a wise lady I knew. In life we have the attitude that it would be better if we could just feel all the good stuff and none of the bad stuff, but would it, really? This episode is about engaging with your feelings and getting to know them wholeheartedly.
