Ep 93: Lessons in Loosening: Juneteenth, Summer, and Shmita

As we celebrate Juneteenth, enter the summer and welcome the concluding months of the Shmita year, we think about all the lessons we can learn from this season. There are internal and external insights to be gained from the confluence of these holidays and this season. We can work to balance the desire to control different aspects of our lives with the benefits and need for loosening in our lives, as we work to expand and feel into joy and liberation this summer.
