But it's keeping that perspective about what it is in the grand picture and not making it worse by projecting all sorts of things onto it. That it's not.
What if you could stay calm, no matter what life throws at you? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer shares a timeless Taoist parable that might just hold the key. The story of the farmer and the horse teaches us about equanimity – the art of staying balanced through life's ups and downs.
Eric dives into how this ancient wisdom can help us embrace change with an open mind and find meaning even in tough times. Drawing from Buddhist perspectives, he explores how equanimity can guide us to focus on opportunities that come from adversity. Eric also offers practical advice on navigating those dark moments when one door has closed, and another hasn't yet opened.
By staying present and not letting our fears take over, we can make the most of life's unpredictable journey. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to cultivate a sense of inner peace and resilience.
