We spend our lives building elaborate systems to avoid feeling certain things. And we don't even realise we're doing it. We call it being organised, being responsible, being careful. We call it managing. But underneath all that managing is something much simpler — pain we decided a long time ago we couldn't afford to feel.
And it costs us everything. Our energy, our relationships, our sense of aliveness. We were not put here to protect ourselves from feeling. We were put here to live.
I re-read Michael Singer's The Untethered Soul this week, and I'm sharing one of the most powerful lessons that has stayed with me since I first encountered it. If something in you recognises what I just described — this episode is for you.
The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer is widely available wherever you buy books.
