Understanding Your Reactive Patterns

Day 8: Discover how attachment, aversion, and ignorance operate unconsciously in everyday situations like watching the news, building identity, and navigating disagreement, learning to recognize these patterns as they create our personal reality maps.

The Wisdom Within Us brings together a curated selection of wisdom and practices from Lion’s Roar member workshops. If a teacher mentions other sessions in their video, they are referring to their complete workshop series, available to Lion’s Roar members.

Reflections

  • Where do you see attachment or aversion driving your choices?
