This is one part in a series of episodes on "The Untethered Soul".
Part 11: Don’t Resist
Resistance creates stress
Life is just an eternal sequence of events happening one after another. That’s the reality of life. It’s a gift of a flow of events that are presented in front of you
Resistance stops you from noticing this sequence; stops you from living life
Will power makes the body move, makes things happen.
You have control, the power to affect things
yet resistance to reality is resisting things that already took place; can't change those
only resists energy from passing through -- simple terms. Hold a grudge
Will power drains when struggling to resist
You waste energy b/c what happened already passed
You are only struggling w/yourself
When you have fear/stress/anxiety over things that haven’t happened yet
you’re throwing energy away b/c the chances of happening are slim
It uses energy that could be used to deal with current awareness events & affects clarity
No reason to stress or burn out when you don’t let willpower resist or build up negative energy
Sometimes these things you resist aren’t even big, just build up big over time bc you didn’t let go soon enough
Let it through you, view with objectivity
Why did you decide to resist this one? Dig deep on preconceived notions & core issues
Being present makes events clearer to see, less likely to get blocked
Relax and release
