How to Embrace Challenges & Live Life to Your Fullest
Discover how to get Through the Tough Times, Find the Deeper Meaning in the Challenges, & Fully Live & Embrace Life!
Listen to the podcast below!
SHOW DESCRIPTION:
But there’s a simpler way too, if we can open up our hearts and learn from others.
And that’s what we talk about–how to embrace life fully, to overcome fear and to dive in, head-on and heart-on.
Key Topics:
- why you can’t block fear, you can only let it through, like wind through a tree
- radical acceptance
- letting go of your hopes, dreams and goals in order to open up
- how letting go is the kindling of your aliveness
- pay attention to what brings you alive and follow that
- how to reframe and have trust in the middle of something difficult
- to be broken is no reason to see all things as broken
- even if you fall down, you’re on solid ground–build from wherever you’re at, even if it’s a square inch.
- alcoholism vs. make-aholism
- best way to honor someone we love is to be the best switch we can
- the teaching power of trees–we must be rooted, and we must sway or be flexible
- how a miracle is a process, not an event
- how to follow your heart
- how practicing mindfulness–being in the present moment brings you closer to everything that ever lived
- whatever is opened in you in more important than what opens to you

Ultimately, he explores with others how to live wholeheartedly, so we can inhabit the gifts we are born with and find the language of our own wisdom.
