I'm going solo this time, and inspired by the imminent shift in seasons from summer to autumn, the subject of this podcast is CHANGE. And my question to you is: what is your relationship with change? Do you resist change or can you "go with the flow"?
There have been some recent developments that have made me pause and reflect on how I feel about change, whether it's uncomfortable or comfortable. The reality is that change is happening all the time, it is the nature of the manifest world in which we live. Our environment is changing - think of the seasons, climate change etc. Our bodies are in continuous flux as we age.
So it's interesting that we think we can influence the evolving nature and consequence of time! Our egoic mind distracts us with thoughts of past and future, we come up with concepts such as "anti-ageing", or wanting to "go back to the way things were". This mindset simply keeps us in the fear, in the non-acceptance. And leads to regret, which is an unhappy place.
According to the yogic scriptures, this is a path of suffering. Because we can only ever be in the present moment! So, listen in and check in with yourself - can you indeed go with the flow?

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
