“Be prepared to stop.”

This is serious life advice, Martha says, because no matter what we’re doing (or how much we want to continue doing it), at some point we’re going to get interrupted by life.

Whenever we have to stop something we thought was going to continue indefinitely—like a job, for example, or a marriage—it can really hurt.

In this episode of The Gathering Pod: When Stopping Is the Way to Go, Martha talks about how we can make peace with inevitable interruptions by embracing another perspective:

“In the flow of time in this earthly existence, stopping and starting are the same thing—every time we stop doing something, we start doing something different.”

Tune in to participate in a guided meditation with Martha and learn how you loosening your attachments can ease the pain of stopping, so you can start observing the delicious flow of life.
