The Mindful Dance of Life: Embracing Failure and Intuition

This episode is a hybrid one of sorts, as host Anne Mühlethaler presents a new podcast launching soon: the companion to her newsletter, The Mettā View. 

For The Mettā View Anne regularly writes personal essays coloured with a mindful lens. In this episode she shares the audio version of her last newsletter essay of 2024, all about her end-of-year thoughts on letting go and trusting the flow. 

Anne reflects that 2024 has been a journey of embracing failure, trusting her intuition and learning to dance with life’s unexpected turns. Join her as she reflects on the lessons learnt, the wisdom gained and the importance of letting go of the need to control (which is tough but important). 

Inspired by the teachings of mindfulness mentor David Cabrera, this episode explores the power of “allowing the dharma to happen” and finding encouragement in discouragement. And, above all, dancing with life.
