Ep. 34 | ​​​​When Your Body Says Stop: Learning to Surrender to What Is

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm talking about what happens when your nervous system calls the shots and your only job is to surrender.  I share the story of coming home from a retreat, planning a productive day, and realizing that my body was in a dorsal state and needed something completely different.  We'll explore surrender as a spiritual practice, how to honor your body's truth, and why rest is sometimes the highest form of wisdom. Question to carry into your day: Where are you resisting what is true in your body or your life, and what might open if you surrendered to it?
