I am always impressed with how Eni can take something incredibly layered and complex and break it down into do-able components. Following her lessons has flowed/generalized into other aspects of life. If a situation in my life feels overwhelming, I know I can manage it if I slow down and really look at it. I am confident if I do that, I’ll see a pattern or thread emerge that will offer up the possibility of a solution and with a bit of concentration I can follow that thread along to where ever I need to be.
