Summary: <p>Letting go is one of the most powerful techniques we have to experiencing a life of peace and happiness. But how do you do that, and why does it work? There are many ways to let go but the reason it works is that your underlying nature, your true self is inherently beautiful and joyful and loving. You’ve just forgotten. You’ve moved your attention to other things. You’ve done that for so long that you now think that the body and the brain and the thoughts and feelings and memories they produce are who you are. But that isn’t true. That isn’t who you are any more than your car or your bedroom is who you are. To escape this illusion, most of us need more than hearing someone tells us this truth. We have to put in the regular meditation practice to train our mind to stabilize on the truth of who we are. So today, rather than telling you, let me show you what I mean, let me help you let go of your illusions and remember who you really are.</p><br><p>Note: This is a 30 minute version of the What's Left When You Let Go episode.</p><br><hr><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> See <a style="color: grey;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://acast.com/privacy">acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
