You Can Handle More Than You Think

The feelings you’re afraid will overwhelm you aren’t the problem — believing you can’t handle them is. Ryan uses the image of a rock dropped into a small bowl versus a vast lake to explore what happens when fear, worry, and other difficult emotions enter our lives. Rather than resisting those feelings and turning pain into suffering, the practice is to expand our sense of who we are and discover how much we can actually hold. A guided meditation follows, inviting you to become the lake: expansive, undisturbed, and capable of allowing every ripple and wave to pass through.
