The Art of Giving Up & The Joy of Letting Go

from Wild Heart Meditation Center · host Andrew Chapman

What is taking up unnecessary space in our lives? What types of behaviors and what particular patterns of thoughts no longer serve us any more? One way to look at renunciation is the practice of "not needing anything extra". Through mindfulness and the ethical trainings in Buddhist practice, we can learn to bring awareness to the aspects of our life that are taking up space and causing ourselves and others distress and come to liberate ourselves from unnecessary patterns of suffering. We call this the Joy of Renunciation. Because, counter to our cultural messages, it is by letting go of our attachment to things that we learn to truly find peace and ease in our lives.
