In this episode, we explore Wise Intention and what it means to gently point our lives in the direction of greater peace, compassion, and wellbeing. We look at the intentions underneath our everyday choices—especially the ways we respond when life is difficult—and how we can learn to meet those moments without creating more suffering for ourselves or others. Through some personal reflection and practical questions, we explore renunciation, goodwill, and non-harming not as rules to follow, but as invitations to practice. Ultimately, this is what we’re trying to do together in our live’s practice - keep showing up, practicing together, and helping one another move toward a little more peace, ease, and a higher happiness.
