Episode notes
Awakening Opens The Heart And Reveals More
- Beth Miller describes awakening as a profound opening of the heart and clarity about what truly matters.
- She still experienced surprise and felt there was always 'more' beyond initial awakening.
Long COVID Became A Gateway To Deeper Healing
- Beth endured three and a half miserable years of long COVID that ultimately became a spiritual gift.
- The illness forced deep presence, surrender, and a visceral clearing she couldn't have accessed otherwise.
Body Takes Time To Integrate Awakening
- Awakening doesn't erase bodily trauma or nervous-system anxiety; the body may 'not get the good news' immediately.
- Staying present with bodily symptoms allows them to dissipate and integrate over time.
