What do you really need? It’s not what you may think! This week, I add to an idea inspired by Michael Singer’s lecture about Negating Nagging Needs. First, I cover why needs are actually an illness and how we will never find abundance or peace if we are coming from a place of lack or need. I’ll give some easy ways to start to neutralize your needs and even question what would happen if the “worst” was about to happen. You’ll learn why your mind keeps you busy with a never-ending list of needs and how getting energy from a person, job, or accomplishment isn’t the way to freedom.
