Jack Panda Speaks

Do you flow between highs and lows or maintain more of a constant equilibrium? In today's episode I talk about the feeling of being let down, depending on external circumstances for self worth, showing up unconditionally without expectations, the idea of "creating your own reality", the conscious experience happening within the unconscious, and seeing the wonder in simply being alive. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message
