Dr. Risk’s Thoughts
I enjoyed this conversation. As we discussed in the interview, I think it’s hard for us to recognized that we are on a journey and it is endless. Whether it’s our physical health, or our mental health, this is always ongoing. There are promises that things can be perfect, but they never are. You can have a perfect meditation, and feel great, and then still get triggered by road rage. The bottom line is you are human, and I feel, that it is an important first step for us to recognize that. We cannot be without challenges. But, as Jason’s book talks about, we can make things easier by consistently working on ourselves and our reactions.
