10 MINUTES TO LESS SUFFERING

If We Try To Control It, It Will Control Us


Listen Later

Do you ever feel like letting go of control isn't enough, like something is still weighing on you? This podcast explores a powerful idea: it's not just about releasing control. It's about recognizing that what you can't control doesn't get to control you either.

Through real-life stories about family stress, work anxiety, relationships, and parenting, this episode breaks down how this two-sided shift creates true freedom, peace, and detachment from suffering. Learn how to stop letting outcomes, people, and uncertainty dictate your mood and start making decisions rooted in your highest wisdom instead.

In this episode you'll discover:

- Why letting go of control is only half the equation - How to break free from anxiety around relationships, work, and parenting - The difference between making a decision and needing to control an outcome - How uncertainty is where your dreams and possibilities actually live

This is an encore episode, and one that is very much needed today.
