This week, we are digging a little deeper into why and how the mind uses us, and how we can gently turn the tables and experience more peace in our minds and in our life—because it seems to have struck a chord with so many last week! In a world filled with diverse mystical traditions and spiritual practices, there seems to be a common thread that unites them all. They all point us towards our true Self, and away from the ego, or our sense of separation from our Source and from each other. Recognizing the nature of our Self, and of the mind and ego brings about more peace and joy in our lives. ________________________________________________
