February 5
18 mins

Episode Description

Hard days happen. You can’t always control your first thought or reaction, but you can create space to respond with more calm and self-compassion. Every moment is new, and even small pauses can help loosen the mental and emotional knots that keep us stuck. You are allowed to feel discomfort without making it a problem.
