Non-Attachment

<p>We're so inconsistent with the podcast and it would be super easy to just feel bad about it and beat ourselves up. But no - we will just keep swimming :). We tend to attach emotions to things and we end up stressed out because of it. It's not that we want to detach - that can be just as bad. Instead, let's work on the art of "non-attachment," including to our inconsistent podcast recording. </p><p>For homework, try to notice the moments when you find yourself attaching to something you see, hear, read, etc.  Or perhaps avoidance/detachment is your thing? Either way, try and notice when it's happening and instead of reacting, take a deep breath. See what happens.</p> <br/><br/>Get full access to Magda at <a href="https://magdamakesit.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&#38;utm_campaign=CTA_4">magdamakesit.substack.com/subscribe</a>

(Dis)comfort

<p>We're all creatures of comfort. But is that pursuit of things that make us comfortable actually hurting us and leading to more discomfort in the end? Magda and Tracy explore their relationship with their habits, such as drinking alcohol. At what point does it go from being delicious and satisfying to harmful and overindulgent? Why don't we stick to doing things that are in our best interest and instead treat ourselves - and our bodies - poorly in the name of "comfort?" </p><p><strong>Some food for thought for our listeners: </strong></p><p>When it comes to things that you do "to give you comfort," what are your intentions? What is the goal? What are the boundaries you're willing to put on those experiences? For example, if it's wine that gives you comfort, at what point is that achieved? How many glasses serves you well vs how many are to your detriment? </p><p>Whatever is the thing you do / eat / drink, etc., would you do this to your best friend? If not, what is driving you to cross your own boundaries? </p><p><strong>What do you think? </strong></p><p>Please rate and review us.
