The Inner Work of Greater Peace

How can we protect our mental and emotional well-being in an environment that is becoming increasingly toxic?

Are we all at the mercy of our circumstances and our environment? Or can we control our emotional state to reduce our suffering and the suffering in the world?

Join me for this episode as I explore, the inner work of greater peace.

Did you launch another personal improvement project this year?

I have to ask, now that we’re nearing the end of the month, how’s that working out for you? Is your motivation crumbling? Did your 30-day challenge not make it past day three?

Or worse, are you reading this while sitting in a stupor, eating storm chips, and binging on Netflix? Don’t despair.

You're not alone. It's not too late. There's a better way.
