The Nobody Guide to Life: Personal Growth and Spirituality Tips and Tools You Can Use Right Now

In E13, we talked about four steps to mindful meditation when you can't stop thinking. In that spirit, I've added another small (formal) meditation to my day, and I'm finding that extra practice is really helping me to notice my thoughts instead of wrestling with them. It's a small step, yes, but it's a step. How is your practice going?

“If I give up something I think I love, it draws my attention closer to what I really love.” Can you really fill up by letting something go? When was the last time you gave up something you loved - no matter how small - in order to make room for something larger? 

In this episode, we discuss how giving something up (something we already know how to do, by the way) can be a powerful, transformative tool that we can use right now to reach our personal and spiritual goals. We look at fasting and other forms of perceived limitation in a broader context of spiritual discipline and moderation to see what these ideas can offer us on the journey. As it turns out, it's a lot!
