Navigating Liminal Spaces: Embracing Change & Rest


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore the concept of liminal space, a transitional phase in life where individuals experience change and uncertainty. We emphasize the importance of productive rest, particularly through practices like yoga nidra, which can help us all navigate these in-between moments. The discussion also touches on the Japanese concept of 'ma,' highlighting the significance of pauses and spaces in life. I encourage you all to embrace these liminal spaces as opportunities for growth and creativity rather than challenges to be overcome.
