Your Untapped Potential 28:29

According to the kabbalists, the purpose of life is to align with one’s soul by transforming the ego’s selfish tendencies into a heart that naturally loves and cares for others, making love a second nature that connects effortlessly with the good in others—an essential goal of spiritual transformation. By trusting in the Creator and approaching rel…

What is “it”? Self-love and self-acceptance. Both are crucial for spiritual growth and personal transformation. While it might seem that there is a contradiction between self-improvement (I have attributes to heal and transform) with self-acceptance (I am perfect just the way I am), true self-love allows for healing and transformation.

True commitment is essential for overcoming limitations and achieving real transformation. So why is commitment an issue for so many of us? We often commit out of FOMO or ego-driven pursuits - accomplishment, praise and accumulation.

Whether we are aware of it or not, we allow external factors to control us, to dictate our moods and attitudes, and even to determine life altering decisions. This is the week to reflect on what internal freedom me…
