How to Surf the Waves of Uncertainty, Part 1: Cultivating Steadiness, with Jonathan Foust

This talk explores how you might cultivate greater steadiness in turbulent times.

One more strategy: Stop watching the news. I had stopped for about 6 years but got sucked back in when 45 was elected. - Bad move. - I mean does it help to "stay informed" about things I have absolutely not control over? No. It actually hurts me. My ignorance is bliss. I vote and donate, which is 100% more effective than bitching and ruminating. And then focus on the beauty of life. Works for me...

Love the last photo of you flying off the sand on the beach - in celebration of being alive.
Some of what you taught today, to me, Is easier said than done. Looking at our reactive aspects, even though we know we are not our thoughts but in a sense we are when we react internally or externally... and to unravel that, I feel, at least in my situation, I need courage to look at the convoluted reactivity that happens within me and makes me feel like I am in hell. BUT when I just be and look and allow courageously and move through that storm, I feel like a huge accomplishment. Work in progress. I even recently, about 3 months ago, I got in touch with my hatred. These are the dark emotions. I became aware that anyone who makes me suffer, I hate. BUT seeing it and being aware was a great revelation. So some of us have challenging work to do to unravel the stuff - the programming. I am work in progress. Appreciate listening and will for sure register. Thank you so very much! 🌺🙏💖🌱 glad you are feeling better... wow!! 🕊☮
