When I think about all the conversations I've had in therapeutic contexts, both as a client and as a clinician, I realize that the majority of the work has been about getting comfortable being human. We are both deeply flawed and brilliantly fabulous beings, and we don't come with instruction manuals.
What we do have is a tradition of connecting with sources of wisdom via teachers, elders, philosophers, and others who've committed to making their own journey from wounded to liberated — taking notes and creating field guides for those who follow. The variables and wisdom containers (e.g., yoga, religion, psychology, evolutionary biology, etc.) may change, but the basic axioms and truths stay the same. To be human is to make mistakes, to be at the mercy of our hormones, social structures, egos, and our deep longing to move though life with ease and abundance. Our lives have periods of learning, growing, loving, maturing, and sharing what we've observed with others. Sooner or later, we leave our physical bodies — none of us gets out of this alive. Getting comfortable being human and cultivating an awareness of the arc of our whole journey is critical to having a more enjoyable ride through life. There are a lot of tools and approaches we can use to get comfortable being human, and I've launched a podcast to explore them. You can find the first episode here on the Anchor.FM platform and wherever else you get your podcast listen on. I'll post new episodes every other Friday starting January 3, 2020. If you have questions or reflections, I'd love to hear them. You can send me an email or leave me a voice message at Anchor.FM. I look forward to all of us getting more comfortable being human together.
