From Cocoon to Flight: Transformation, Stillness & The Gift of Becoming“What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls a butterfly.” – Richard BachEvery journey has a moment where everything feels like it’s falling apart—where dreams collapse, relationships dissolve, or the path ahead disappears into silence.It’s tempting to call it the end. But what if it’s not the end at all?What if it’s the cocoon—the sacred space where what you were must dissolve, so you can become what you were always meant to be?This video is a meditation on transformation, stillness, and the courage to let go.Drawing on Stoicism, Taoism, and Zen, we’ll explore how the hardest moments of undoing are not punishments, but invitations:✨ To release the weight of the past✨ To accept what you cannot control✨ To flow with the Way of life, even when it feels dark✨ To discover that stillness precedes flightMetamorphosis is not destruction—it is becoming.If you are walking through loss, endings, or uncertainty, let these words remind you: the cocoon is not the grave. It is the birthplace of your wings.🌱 Courses & ProgramsFREE COURSE – Beyond Meditation: Living a Transcendent Life👉 https://www.raphaelreiter.com/free-course30-Day Transcendence Program (20% OFF)👉 https://courses.raphaelreiter.com/30-days-full-transcendence-course?coupon=PRE-RELEASE-SPECIAL-OFFERPersonal Coaching with Raphael – Transcendence Training👉 https://www.raphaelreiter.com/cdcba188-eaac-4f89-9f14-ff9d3a6be49cPersonalised Guided Meditation👉 https://www.raphaelreiter.com/personalised-guided-meditation-details💌 Daily Writings & CommunityHard Truths With Love – Daily Wisdom Letters👉 https://raphaelreiter.substack.comFree Discord Community👉 https://discord.gg/FUTXTpct🌿 Supplements I RecommendIM-8 Health (clean, science-backed support for focus, energy, and recovery)🎁 Use code RAPHAEL for 10% OFF👉 https://im8health.com/discount/RAPHAEL☕ Support Raphael’s WorkPatreon → https://www.patreon.com/raphaelreiterStripe Tip Jar → https://donate.stripe.com/6oE16w3iUaJ01oc5kmBuy Me a Coffee → https://www.buymeacoffee.com/raph📲 Social & PodcastInstagram (Main) → https://www.instagram.com/raphael.reiterInstagram (Fitness Journey) → https://www.instagram.com/crossfitraphYouTube → https://www.youtube.com/raphaelreiterSpotify Podcast → https://open.spotify.com/show/6ZKxEM3XJjhdZXoevmKNmiApple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/fr/podcast/meditation-with-raphael/id1478546413

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
