Kissing Tanha As It Flies (Episode 81)

Not giving into the craving, but simply observing it until it fades, allows us to heal in that we grow out of a strategy that seeks happiness in very limited ways (seeking pleasant sights, sounds, feelings, sensations, etc.) and starts to taste a happiness and well-being that is intrinsic to being, itself - when we aren't hooked by the seductive messaging of craving or tanha.
