Emotions are a big part of our day-to-day life. They affect our happiness, health, and productivity; accepting our emotions is a key component of our happiness and well-being.

In this wonderful and power-packed episode, Kristel shares her insight on the laws of the universe. There will always be low moments and high, exciting moments in life. Accepting the existence of both moments enables one to have a serene calm life without giving energy to things you have no control over. Kristel shares a story about her current situation in marriage and what she is learning from the situation.

Understanding how to handle our different emotions and recognizing why they occur is paramount to enhancing a healthy, calm life. Meditation plays a significant role in helping us manage our emotions by helping us focus on the present moment. Additionally, finding gratitude in all life situations enables one to live life in abundance.

[36:19] Quote #3 I am washing my face before bed while a country is on fire. It feels dumb to wash my face and dumb not to, it has never been this way, and it has always been this way.

The fact that suffering, mundanity, and beauty coincide is unbearable and remarkable
