Episode Synopsis

It’s only natural that we like to be in control of things in our lives, to be on top of things and to know how things will pan out. However, the idea that control equals certainty is a misconception. Equally, there is a misconception that surrender equals giving up, but this is not the case. Surrendering means to stop fighting, to stop resisting and pushing against reality. When we surrender we allow the energy and flow of life to work through us and we accept what is in the faith that all will be well without our input. “You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway”. Steve Maraboli.
