info_outlineDiscover how exchanging self-doubt for a positive attitude can open the paths to greater wellbeing in life. Tune in for a funny and compelling story that will empower you to silence your inner critic and embark on a journey toward a brighter, more fulfilling future.
In this episode we make reference to the Heyoka, a character used in ancient civilizations that is a sacred clown. It represents the illusion and distracts from what is real. We all have a Heyoka inside which is our ego: our fear, judgment, pride, etc. It consumes our energy and grows the more that we feed it, leaving us drained. Curiously, it also presents to us the greatest opportunity to grow and gain personal power (in a humble and beautiful way, by the hand of the great spirit) in the manner in which we do not feed it and save our energy in the favor of our purpose.
