Inspiration from The Untethered Soul

The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer is a potent heavy read. And one of my go-to’s. I often find myself reading a paragraph and then having to put the book down to ponder the depth and meaning for a day or two.

I will share my favorite passage from this book. It’s about learning to keep the heart open no matter what. This will save you a few weeks of getting there if you ever decide to read the book.

You’re welcome 🤗

“How you stay open is up to you. The ultimate trick is to not close. If you don’t close, you will have learned to stay open. Do not let anything that happens in your life be important enough that you’re willing to close your heart over it. When your heart starts to close, just say, “No. I’m not going to close. I’m going to relax. I’m going to let this situation take place and be there with it.”

Honor and respect the situation, and deal with it. By all means deal with it. Do the best you can. But deal with it with openness. Deal with it with excitement and enthusiasm. No matter what it is, just let it be the sport of the day. In time, you will find that you forget how to close.”
