What do you think would have happened if Arjuna had set some boundaries with his cousins a lot earlier? Well, his inability to set them gave us the Geeta so we won’t judge him too much but YOU, dear listener have the power to prevent a war! As we learned from Arjuna, the more you procrastinate expressing your boundaries, the more people will expect that you don’t have them. In this episode, we go over a few listener questions to illustrate how to do your duty by standing up for yourself and building strong boundaries.

In this podcast, we continue the conversation about boundaries. Where and when do we draw that line? Your first clue is whenever you feel agitated  (a direct quote from Krishna!). Madonna said it best when she sang about the challenges of crossing Borderlines— “feels like I’m going to lose my mind”.  When you get that feeling, it’s time to draw that strict boundary. And as she also said, “Nobody should keep on pushing your love over the borderline”. We discuss this and other situations where you should draw the line and create a boundary.

You set them. Some people respect them. Others ignore them. A few push them. We are talking about boundaries.  We know we need them but sometimes they are hard to make and even harder to maintain.

In this new season, we will focus on establishing and maintaining boundaries in all areas of our lives– family, work, friends, and with ourselves. In this podcast, we discuss what the Geeta says about why we need boundaries and how to establish them. Remember that creating boundaries means creating space for you to thrive.

Do your best and leave the rest. Live each day with a feeling of equanimity. Meditate. We know all the things we need to do but how do we start? And what if we start but one day we don’t quite do our best (and definitely don’t leave the rest). How do we push through the frustration of not getting it perfect each day? First off, stop being so hard on yourself!  Change is not linear and we all take a stumble or two (or ten) backwards on our journey of growth. In this episode, we share tips from the Geeta on how to start incorporating good habits in your life and how to get back on that path when you veer off.

It can be a do-over, a second chance. It’s a mystery. An incentive to do better. It can make you fearful or hopeful. It can bring a sense of peace. In this podcast, we discuss reincarnation. Does our behavior in this lifetime impact the next? Do our souls reunite with the souls of loved ones in our next life? Join us as we discuss this cycle of birth and death.

I deserve it! We have all had that thought before. I worked hard therefore I deserve the promotion. I studied hard so I deserve to get into that college. Maybe you thought, I messed up, so I deserve the punishment. But what do we really deserve? In the Geeta, Krishna reminds us that we only have a right to the effort and no right to the result. No one deserves anything – not the good fortune or the bad. The only thing you have a “right” to is the effort itself and not the outcome. If you can't impact the outcome, you may wonder why bother trying? Krishna says that no effort is ever wasted. No matter the outcome, you always learn, grow, and evolve from doing your best. And you deserve that.

Listen to this episode and then tell Anger who’s boss.

A good part of Chapter 1 in the Bhagavad Geeta is Arjun making excuses for why he doesn’t want to engage in battle with his ne’er-do-well cousins. He makes excuse after excuse for why he can’t do what he knows he has to do. Will it really do any good? They are my family- I can’t stand up to them! It will be bad for my karma if I do something! Sound familiar?

In this podcast, we break down all the excuses we make to not do our duty. We discuss how we can stop making excuses and just do the right thing. Arjun had to take on his battles, and so do we.
