Trying To Get Off The Roller Coaster Increases Overwhelm

Trying to get off the roller coaster of life increases that overwhelmed feeling. Have you noticed that? It can seem like that is something to attain... A life free from ups and downs. I have noticed this recently in my client conversations. The 'if only' of feeling calm all the time. The idea that life could be a straight line. But the truth about the human experience... It's untidy. It's messy. It has highs and lows We can accept this or feel the uncomfortable resistance to it.

Thanks Clare. I so needed to hear that the uncomfortable feeling is resistance. Acceptance is the way out. Another great talk!

You gave me so much to think about with the phrase, "Accept yourself" . It was for me the aha!. du-uh!, hammer to the head moment .
