Episode description
Our problems dissolve when we bring our attention and presence to them.
All problems are based in this one fact: We have become dissatisfied with our situation.
Once we are dissatisfied, we have two choices: 1) Try to bend the world to our will, or 2) surrender and accept the situation – bring presence to the situation.
Surrender is the same as bringing your attention back to the breath. It is very powerful, not weak.
Every time you are aware that you have a problem, bring your attention back to your breath.
