Cultivating Patience with Insights on Self Criticism, Comparison and Control
We've all heard the adage, "patience is a virtue", but I think of patience as an integral aspect of resilience.
In this episode, I share personal reflections on recent challenges involving summer illnesses, rescheduling, and navigating the transitions between Pitta and Vata seasons.
Drawing parallels between my gardening experiences and broader life processes, I discuss the importance of patience and the pitfalls of hyper-criticism.
I delve into how I manage to zoom out and see the bigger picture, recognizing my progress amidst self-criticism.
I also explore the concept of patience through personal anecdotes, definitions, and Ayurvedic principles, offering practical advice on embodying patience.
Cultivating patience can actually be a pathway to more peace and ease in your body and your life.
