When we let go of what doesn't serve us, we remove weight that holds us down. On today's show we turn to Zen Buddhism for wisdom on letting go of anxiety about the future, grudges, stuff, dead relationships, and more.
Here's a preview:
[4:00] Insanely anxious about the future? (Me too!) Don't spend your energy worrying; do this instead
[12:00] Think of decluttering not as throwing stuff away; think of it instead as setting your stuff (and yourself!) free
[19:00] How to let go of lost friendships and relationships, straight from the mouths of Buddhist monks
[26:00] Holding a grudge requires vast amounts of energy so become skilled at forgetting
[34:00] You're going to get to where you're meant to go, so there's no need to second-guess your choices
