125 Let Your Light Shine
12/25/23 • 0 min
If we lived in a dark world that was without light we might try to cope and understand through philosophy, science, relationships, psychotherapy, thinking, emoting, talking, etc. Yet nothing would help us all as much as a single person lighting a candle.

These podcasts are here to support your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. I feel they are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last. Though they, also, all stand on their own. If anything does not resonate, please disregard it and follow your heart. All my podcasts and website are free. Enjoy!
Though I am a psychotherapist, and these podcasts are offered to be spiritually helpful, they are not psychotherapy. If psychotherapy is ever needed, please reach out to a psychotherapist.

What if wrestling with life and trying to control every aspect is precisely what's keeping you from the peace and happiness you seek? Join me as we unlock the ancient wisdom of Tibetan Dzogchen master, Longchampa, and explore his profound suggestion to 'leave it as it is.' This episode is a heartfelt invitation to let go of the exhausting grip we so often maintain on our lives. In this short 3-minute meditative talk, you can experience the art of allowing and surrender, illuminating how these concepts can help uncover the ever-present radiant bliss within us. Together, we'll navigate the idea of letting go, exploring how this act of surrender can reconnect us with our inner peace and happiness. Even on days when allowing seems too difficult, there’s no shame in embracing where you are. Let's relax, rest our weary hearts, and find solace in the present moment. Take a break from the relentless need to control and discover the peace that comes with simply being. I look forward to sharing more insights with you next time. Take care.
