395: How To Love Your Life (Even When It...

HAL ELROD
About this episode

Can you remember that indescribable feeling of first falling in love with someone? What if that peak state could be activated within you, at any given time? 

We often associate the word love with a romantic relationship. And when we fall in love with someone, we give all the credit for those feelings to that person. But the other person is really just the stimulus for achieving that state of being. The truth is, that state is always available to us, and some would argue, it's our default spiritual state. 

We've been talking a lot lately about how to harness your ability to choose how you experience each moment of your life, regardless of your outer circumstances. Today, we're going to dive deeper into that theme from a different angle, specifically discussing how you can choose to make love your default way of experiencing life, even when life is difficult (aka sucks).

Key Takeaways

  • Why love in our society is misunderstood and almost always thought of in terms of romantic love—and why love is our fundamental state.
  • How COVID has helped me live in a state of love and joy, even as I've faced setbacks and challenges.
  • How approaching meditation in a different way can help you get into an optimal state.
  • Why living intentionally and consciously accepting life as it is can help you stop emotions from getting the best of you.
