But what we may not realize is that each one of these agreements represents an attachment, a limiting filter on who we think we are, and what the future could hold. This is according to Lisa’s guest today, Don Miguel Ruiz, Jr. He has written a new book entitled The Five Levels of Attachment: Toltec Wisdom for a Modern World. Join him and his father, don Miguel Ruiz, Sr., both Toltec masters, as they talk about this guide to understanding how we have developed our belief structures and how to go about re-evaluating—or even severing—these harmful attachments.
