EP 560: When we're not 100%, acceptance is our best friend!

Let’s face it. Life doesn’t always cooperate with us and our plans. Right? Today, for me, is a great example. Last night, through no fault of my own or anyone else, I wound up sleeping less than four hours, far less than the seven hours my body requires. So today I am a walking wreck. And it would be easy for me to give in to the irritability and even anger I might experience today. But instead, I choose to hold my physical sensation in my awareness, forgive myself, and allow myself to take it slowly and be flexible with people and circumstances. It’s not how I want things to be. But by accepting things in this way, I can avoid further suffering. In today’s episode, I talk about this.
