Welcome to the show! I am on a solo jam today, talking about what it can mean to experience struggle and surrender, and where we can find the medicine in both. I am doing things a little differently today: I am taking a three parted intention to first discuss a challenge, then tell stories about how this challenge can look and feel using personal narrative, and then I am offering medicine to help move through the challenge. Today, I am presenting the challenge of the struggle--those times when we feel so myopically focused on something that we get a sort of tunnel vision that blocks the rest of life. I use the word "obsessed" to mean that energy that completely sucks all of our cognitive, emotional, physical and spiritual energy into one desire. We have been so trained to hustle hard and focus on our dreams that we forget to take the pedal off of the metaphorical vehicle we are driving so intensely towards whatever it is that we want. I give several examples of times in my life where I repeat the pattern of myopically focusing and struggling to get the desired outcome. The medicine, I offer, is that we must learn to step away for a moment. Learn to play and find joy in other things in life. Bring a freshness and a more wide angle lens to life again. And many of us may be finding ourselves in this position right now, I know I certainly feel this very much calling me right now. Maybe it is time to stop hustling and starting trusting. To walk away to go play and let the desire and dream have its alone time. When we are ready, that surrender energy will sweep us right into the flow of our desired result, and we will be pleasantly surprised at how quickly, beautifully and readily it takes its form. A'ho. Blessings to you as you move through struggle and into surrender. Much love, Kristi
