About this listen

 ✨ Episode Summary: Ever have one of those days where it feels like everyone is out to test your patience? In this classic replay, Cheri Flake dives deep into what’s really going on when the world feels extra annoying—and (spoiler!) the answer might not be them. With wisdom from retreats, a powerful teaching by Pema Chödrön, and reminders from A Course in Miracles, Cheri unpacks the empowering truth of owning your inner landscape. This episode includes a deeply grounding "Train Station OM" meditation to help you return to your center and choose peace over reactivity. 🔑 3 Key Learning Points:
  • It’s not them, it’s you: When everyone is getting on your nerves, it's time to look inward, not outward.
  • Replace the loop: Stop affirming negative states (like saying "I’m tired")—your brain listens and responds accordingly.
  • You get to choose: Every moment is an invitation to respond consciously rather than react unconsciously.
