Words That Look Back, What's Yours?
About this episode
There’s a quiet miracle in discovering that not every mood needs to run its course. That we can feel the tug of emotion, recognize it… and choose not to be swept away.
In this podcast episode, we explore how a simple mantra became a steady companion on the path from reactivity to presence. It’s not a dramatic journey—but a subtle, consistent one. One that leads, eventually, to the center.
Orin and Mira reflect on the practice of invoking presence in the middle of emotional weather, and what happens when the story of the mood no longer defines the moment.
“But what happens in the center, you might ask?
Nothing… and everything.
Just stillness. A place from which to choose.”
