Embrace Life's Messiness: Garrett Avery on Finding Beauty in Imperfection

And so, just the same way, when we're wearing noise cancelling headphones, we get into a car that's been engineered for Years to keep the noise in the cabin as quiet as possible. You know we go into sterilized office buildings with sterilized, you know bathrooms with air conditioning on and you know we have everything where it's just smoothing out the experience. And don't get me wrong, I respect it, I love it, you know for the innovation and the efficiency and the creation that went into it. But what are you left with?
Imagine a world where every corner is spotless, every surface sanitized to a gleaming finish. While that might sound ideal for a hospital, it's not the best approach for living a fulfilling life. In this episode of 'E4C: Mindfulness for Millennials', Garrett Avery dives into the cultural obsession with over-sterilizing our lives and why it's crucial to let some messiness in.

He poses thought-provoking questions like 'What can I learn from this situation?' and 'How can I improve next time?', encouraging listeners to see setbacks as stepping stones. This episode isn't just about mindfulness; it's a call to live more authentically by accepting the messiness that comes with being human.
