It is easy to get trapped into a cycle of striving, working hard for goals that are always just out of reach, and then continually criticising and driving yourself even harder.

Many clients come to us exhausted and unhappy and because they want to step-off this relentless hamster-wheel of striving.

But when they begin to understand they are already good enough and that they don’t need to strive for perfection, they can often lose their sense of purpose and motivation and get bored with life.

So what’s going on here? Is it possible to stop striving, accept we are already enough AND be truly fulfilled in life?

In this teaching, your hosts, husband and wife team, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher and therapist), and Alexandra Lees (wellbeing coach and feng shui consultant), answer your questions.

Episode highlights:

• Is striving to be a better person a natural and authentic pursuit?
• Why our inner child always wants us to chase perfection.
• Why we can become bored or disillusioned when we stop striving.
• How to be satisfied with life NOW, and create intentions and goals that are healthy and balanced.
