The 1981 movie "Stripes," starring Bill Murray and John Candy as enlistees in the Army, features a scene with a tough-guy character who says his name is Francis but everyone calls him "Psycho." And if you call him Francis, he'll kill you. And if you touch his stuff, he'll kill you. And if you touch him, he'll kill you.
He gives this whole speech about how he's going to kill everyone, and when he's done, the drill sergeant says, "Lighten up, Francis."
And that's some advice we all could use!
It's easy to take ourselves super seriously, but that generally takes us away from the inner peace we crave.
This episode is about how we can lighten up, Francis, and the many benefits for doing so.
