In this week’s episode, Barb and Michelle discuss the topic of belonging, and the basic human instincts we all feel to fit in. Both share personal stories and anecdotes as well as poignant insights on how we all can learn to belong, starting from the inside, out. Follow us @MichelleMaros and @Peaceful_Barb and share your experiences with us @BarbKnowsBestPod or at  www.michellemaros.com/podcast. 

Episode Notes:

Feeling like you don’t belong is painful and it’s lonely. This is a natural feeling and it’s important to have awareness of this feeling. Name it. Don’t be ashamed. 

Barb’s Pain Meditation 

I am aware of this pain

I care about this pain 

May this pain release.

When ending the sitting session

May I be safe

May I be deeply happy

May I be healthy 

May I live with ease
