You can cultivate being fascinated in your emotional reactions without believing or disbelieving them, but being curious about where it's coming from." – Ram Dev (Dale Borglum)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Can we use boring sensation to take us directly to that place?" – Ram Dev (Dale Borglum)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
