As someone who has been depressed and anxious and confused and lost…when I do not engage in my spiritual practices regularly, on a good day, I’m unaffected. But when I hit a low, everything falls […]

You’re either the rat inside the maze being shocked, or the mind inside the rat observing the rat inside the maze being shocked. Awareness is key.
