Pay Attention to:
Some of the most important moments of our lives often occur when we are alone.
Through the split mind of our egoic defense system, our human journey demands we create our sense of self worth through external roles, relationships, and various stimuli. We put this defense system in place to protect ourselves within the landscape of belief of separation — from nature, from God, from one another. In an effort to feel complete through these external roles and relationships, coupled with our desire to measure our value for the needs we fulfill in others around us, we create an insatiable state of being, a profound loneliness and disconnection at a deep level.
So many of us spend our days in service to family, friends, kids, jobs, chores, and bills. How much time does that leave for ourselves? Far too often, we underserve our full potential because we keep so busy and distracted from who we are. We train ourselves to immediately fill the silent moments with distractions to fill the foreign blank space.
We let these distractions and pursuits assuage our sense of emptiness, our insecurity, and our lack of self-worth. We distract ourselves in any quiet moments between the roles and duties as a means to avoid asking the deeper questions: Who am I? What am I here to express? What is my highest expression of self? Am I valuable in my naked alone state with source?
For a lack of tender self-inquiry, we fail to see our own beauty. We become an amalgamation of opinions and reactions to our external stimuli and relationships. We then develop a deep distrust in ourselves because we have never listened in long enough to discover our innate wisdom and knowingness. Our intuition is shut down, and we reach a state of pain that necessitates a constant effort to distract or numb it with addictions to social media, food, relationships, drugs, and activities.
It’s the silent moments that we need to start to pay attention to. We may think we are so busy, but these moments are more abundant than we think. Become mindful of these quiet moments throughout your day, and instead of immediately trying to fill them with what you can do next — pause, take a beat, and realize this moment is precious. It is between the words, activities, and stimuli that will allow us to find our own inherent resonance. A frequency of truth. Your truth.
At the tipping point of all things, may be the most important thing we can do right now is be silent, hold still, and begin this surrender experiment. Let’s be in silent gratitude for the fact that we're alive right now and we can create a new future.

I don't look for Podcasts but this one came to me and I like it. Hope
some here appreciate it.
Since no more politics here, how about some spirituality???
