Life will shoot us with the first arrow - these are real injuries, setbacks, losses and pain.
But the greater cause of our suffering comes form ‘the second arrow’ - the fear, anxieties, ruminations, and other internal mechanisations that we dwell upon.
In this episode I discuss the concept of the second arrow, as well as how we can use it to eliminate significant amounts of excess (and useless) suffering.

Unchecked fear can make us irrational, take away our functionality and impair our judgement. This impact is compounded when those around us are just as afraid as we are.

We are afraid, and rightly so. But do we need to be this afraid to remain safe? I doubt it.

These skills will help you to maintain a sense of normality in a world that feels increasingly confusing and scary.
