Overcoming Glāni and Becoming Comfortable with Uncertainty
from Abundant Yoga Teacher Podcast · host Amy McDonald
Glāni (depression, lethargy, inertia, apathy, cynical pessimism and ‘What’s-the-fcking-point'-ness) can easily arise when we are made uncomfortable with uncertainty. But here’s the thing: none of us ever know what is going to happen next. When we surrender and open to not knowing, anything is possible.
