About this episode

Conscious texting with CB on +1310-361-5485 available to seekers in the USA and Canada only. 

In this episode, Chandresh shares the idea of love from a different perspective. Rather than receiving love without conditions, we often take it for granted and put our terms and conditions onto it. We also chase it in other people and impose our idea of what love should be onto one another. As a result, love becomes an anxious and exhausting experience for everyone involved. In this episode, we invite the listeners to reflect deeper into how you experience love, and if you are able to receive and honor the presence of love as a guest in your life.
