Episode 139: Embracing Our Limitations
from Virtual Pause Hosted by Angie Winn
February 3rd, 2025 When we hide, grasp, push, shove, dominate, escape, or demonstrate other un-grounded behaviors, we are more than likely acting out of a place of self-protection, pushing down a weakness or limitation we have that we can’t bear for the world, or ourselves, to see. This limitation can create a shadow side in us, and the work we do to cover it up and protect an image of ourselves can be exhausting and destructive. In today’s Pause, we will identify a limitation in ourselves, see how we have acted to protect it, embrace it with compassion, and let it get untangled from our grip. From that place we will be able to be vulnerable, open, and at rest, live transformed, and be guided on how to move into the world. “Our creations come not when we’re out in the world, gathering impressions, but when we’re sitting still, turning those impressions into sentences. Our job, you could say, is to turn, through stillness, a life of movement into art.” The Art of Stillness, Pico Iyer Photo by Andrey Grinkevich on Unsplash
