"Welcome back to Equanimity: Letting Go of Attachments. I'm your host, Master Rinda."
Through my own experiences with loss, uncertainty, and unexpected change, I've learned that grief is not only about losing someone—it is about losing moments, dreams, seasons, and versions of ourselves.
Today, we will gently explore grief, change, and acceptance, and how equanimity can help you stay steady while your heart moves through difficult transitions.
I'm grateful you're here. This is a space to breathe, to soften, and to feel without judgment.
Grief shows up in many forms. The loss of a relationship. The end of a chapter. The shifting of identity. The disappointment of an unmet hope. Even positive changes can carry grief, because part of you is letting go of what was.
Equanimity teaches us that grief is not a problem to solve—it is a process to experience.
Understanding grief as part of life helps soften the fear around it. It reminds you that nothing is wrong with you. You are not broken. You are human.
Impermanence teaches us that everything changes—emotions, circumstances, people, and even our own beliefs.
Acceptance does not mean you approve of what happened. Acceptance means you stop fighting reality long enough to take a breath.
Allowing emotions without resistance is one of the most compassionate things you can offer yourself.
You can cry. You can feel lost. You can sit in stillness. You can take your time.
Grief moves differently for everyone. Some days feel heavier. Some feel lighter. Some feel confusing. This doesn't mean you're going backward. It means you're healing.
When you allow grief to move through you—not rushed, not forced—you create space for peace to return.
Acceptance is not a finish line. It is a softening. A gentle shift. A quiet moment when you realize you can breathe again.
If you're moving through grief or change, take a slow breath. You don't have to be okay. You don't have to understand everything. You simply need to stay present with yourself.
Thank you for sharing this time with me.
