We aren’t our moods, bodies, accomplishments or past. We contain these elements but we’re much more expansive. When we view our life from this grander point of view, it’s easier to tolerate unwanted fluctuations in mood and circumstance. Holding ‘what is’ in this larger container gives us an intrinsic stability that doesn’t depend on external circumstances. We still experience tumultuous transitions, heartache, disappointment and grief, we just live through it with…
Greater equanimity.
