Episode 16: Staying Open In A Challenging World With Marci Shimoff

How do you stay grounded when faced with the overwhelming realities of what’s going on in the world? In today’s solo episode, we’ll explore how to stay in the Miracle Zone amidst the world’s challenges without spiritual bypassing.

I’ll show you how to remain connected to your heart and humanity. And I’ll guide you through a breathing practice for connecting with your inner strength and anchoring your body, mind, and spirit in unconditional love and compassion.

A lot is going on in the world. It can feel challenging to stay rooted in loving awareness in the face of so much desensitizing cruelty and negativity. Many people feel pulled between ignoring the world’s challenges so they don’t disrupt their vibration or staying glued to social media and the news. But the news floods you with fear, anger, confusion, and adrenaline. So what do you do?

Well, there’s another way to stay anchored in possibilities and inspiration without turning away from the challenges happening in the world, and that is the Miracle Zone way.

The Miracle Zone way is remaining in and showing up in unconditional love despite the pervasive negativity in your environment. It’s a powerful expression of light that our world desperately needs right now. Everyone across the planet is witnessing significant atrocities happening in the Middle East and feeling the collective grief for the innocent caught in the crossfire.

And in the face of a monumental level of suffering and oppression, it’s natural to ask the question: What do we do? How do we hold space for the hurting and stay sane while moving through the darkness?

These are some of the questions we’ll begin answering as we explore the tools I have for you today to help you keep your heart open while living through challenging times. Living fully in the Miracle Zone is all about knowing that to shine your light and show up in unconditional love with compassion, unattached to any specific outcome other than liberation, takes courage.

In our courageousness, we can be blessed, and, in turn, be a blessing to others. Kindness still abounds and staying hopeful in humanity is the way forward.

Join me today for a heart-based guided meditation to anchor into a place of love and inner strength and step out of the loop of fear and adrenaline.
