This episode explores the paradox that life is both benevolent and brutal. From lions suffocating prey, wasps laying eggs in living hosts, and dolphins killing for play, to the deep grief of a mother losing her child, we see that nature’s intelligence is not sentimental. It destroys and renews in the same motion. Through these reflections, I look at how the mind resists this truth by grasping for control, trying to manage what was never ours to manage. Trusting life is not passivity; it’s remembering that life has always taken care of itself. The same force that moves the planets moves your breath. The invitation is to relax—in body, in mind—and see that what remains is presence. Life takes care of life. Always has. Always will. And none of it is your business.
