Episode 26 - How Do You Want It To Feel Wake The F*ck Up Podcast

    • Science

Often we devote so much energy, conscious and unconscious, to anticipating the outcomes of experience. How is something going to go? What do we want the outcome to be? What outcomes are we afraid of? We become anxious with the reality that the outcome, no matter how much we prepare, is unknown until we find ourselves alive in it as it unfolds.
This episode explores the idea that WHAT we have been focusing on in the hopes of preparing and easing our suffering is actually the wrong thing. If the outcome is largely out of control, what would it be like to focus on how we want to FEEL regardless of how things play out?
