Awakening Together, Relaxing into Happiness with William Cooper, Master of Theology, Licensed Professional Counselor

This is a recording of a Live Q & A which has been edited for clarity, length, and helpfulness.

We discuss how to identify your core essence, engage with stillness, and embrace the simplicity of being happy while letting go of life's troubles.

Enjoying who you truly are involves peeling back layers of distractions to reveal the light within. Discovering the light within that shines like the sun—unclouded and constant. By connecting with the lives of enlightened beings like Ramana Maharshi and Buddha, we unravel the essence of our pure selves through chakras, love, silence, and joy. Explore the art of letting go, freeing ourselves from distractions and troubles that dim our inner radiance, and learn how this practice can transform our life experience.
Inner peace and fulfillment are within reach. With personal stories and insights, we connect with the simplicity of life, much like the serene existence of gentle sheep. Reflect on the trust and peace conveyed in the 23rd Psalm and discover the power of poetry, especially the works of Rumi, as a gateway to tuning into our true nature. Through meditation, we unravel the subtle awareness behind our thoughts, transcending beyond the realm of right and wrong, and understanding our deepest self.
Embrace the journey of personal growth and healing as we explore how releasing repressed emotions can be a painful yet liberating path to joy. Personal anecdotes and cosmic phenomena remind us of the importance of clearing suffering to reveal our true selves. Discover how personal clarity enhances relationships, even the challenging ones, and learn the significance of kindness in transforming perceptions. we discuss how to identify your core essence, engage with stillness, and embrace the simplicity of being happy while letting go of life's troubles.

These podcasts are here to support your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. I feel they are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last. Though they, also, all stand on their own. If anything does not resonate, please disregard it and follow your heart. All my podcasts and website are free. Enjoy!
Though I am a psychotherapist, and these podcasts are offered to be spiritually helpful, they are not psychotherapy. If psychotherapy is ever needed, please reach out to a psychotherapist.
