Listen Again: When You’re Caught Between Hope and Fear

The Tao Te Ching says, “Hope is as hollow as fear. Whether you go up the ladder or down, your position is shaky.” In this “Listen Again” episode of The Gathering Room, I talk about how easy it is to get stuck in the awful place between hope and fear when important things are on the line. I share my definitions of mindfulness and equanimity, and how these two practices can help you step off that shaky ladder, ground yourself in the present moment, and mother yourself through difficult times.
