Ep 141 - Surrendering to the Sweetness of Life: A Journey to What Matters Most

“Its human for us to fluctuate, the more we practice awareness, consciousness and, meditation, our response time begins to become quicker” - Leslieann Hobayan

Savor the moment. How many of us run around trying to get to the next thing before we’ve even completed the thing we’re doing? How many of us are trying to desperately to check off the to-do list that we miss the moments of sweetness in our lives? We spend too much time trying to check things off a list, believing that once we “get it done” *then* we’ll be able to enjoy our lives. Here’s a little secret: you’ll never get it all done. Once you check off one thing, there’s always something else that slides int to take its place. So why not pause, take a breath, and surrender to the sweetness of life?

You’ve heard about surrendering –usually in the context of difficulties– but this one is about the delightful things, the ones we usually think are “too good to be true”. Listen in to find out why it’s important surrender to ALL things and how!
