In this episode we get personal... We read through the beautiful poem called "True Love" by David Whyte and talk about the struggle that humans have with overcoming both our desires (what we are drawn to) and aversions (what we are repelled from.)

We talk about how literal meditation can help us to see our aversions and desires more clearly and detach from them. We also go through the history of Aurelmas, which is the ancient stoic holiday that predates Christmas... that we invented and will be celebrating on March 16th 2024, details in the episode.
