Altering our perspective is a very difficult task. We have a lifetime of learned experience that dictates how we perceive life. For most of us, this includes some coping mechanisms that would not be described as healthy. This episode examines a few simple ways to reverse the cycle. As Yoda from Star Wars says, “You must unlearn what you have learned.

The last half of the episode is a creative experiment. Daniel shares how the movie “Legend of Baggar Vance” serves as an important reminder of how he wants to live. One of the themes of the movie is that life isn’t a game you either win or lose. It's a game that can only be played.

Being diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease is similar to being buried by consistent avalanches of bad news and worsening symptoms. It’s easy to forget what made living so important. This why reminders such as this are so important. Slip on some headphones and find a quiet place. You are invited to this creative process.
