And your actions double down on your prediction to make it a reality. It’s kind of a vicious cycle.” Cleveland Clinic - Self-help concepts and ideas often provide explanations to life’s mysterious and unknowable workings. - These concepts can be soothing and helpful yet very often can become restricting. In his episode we are exploring some common concepts we may learn in our path of seeking and reflecting on their usefulness at different points in our path and the potential for liberation of our need to explain and being in the awe of the mystery.
