In today’s episode, Reggie discusses the loss of control we feel when facing the uncertainty of life through the practice of meditation. Chaos, he says, is a sign that reality is trying to get through to us. When we heed the call and surrender our grasp, our lives flow open and free, and experience becomes our most trusted guide on the journey.
