Join Michael and Chaka Khan TODAY, December 19th @ 12 PM ET, for World Meditation Day sponsored by the United Nations and The Chaka Khan Foundation! Learn more at https://chakakhanfoundation.org/meditate/. Begin 2026 guided by spiritual clarity and energized by possibility! Join Michael for a powerful virtual New Year's Day Meditation, Visioning & Activation, livestreamed from Costa Rica! Sign up at https://events.agapelive.com/begin-again/. Today, our first letter comes from Candice, who has lived in fight-or-flight mode for decades—tight shoulders, shallow breathing, constant tension. However, when she's on the tennis court she feels peaceful and free. She's heard about "divine breathing" as a solution, and wants to know how to bring that ease into everyday life. Our next letter comes from Sandra. Sandra stopped comparing herself to others, but now she's comparing herself to her future "expanded self" through Life Visioning—and it's starting to feel heavy. She asks how to stay inspired, not pressured, and serve with joyful lightness. Finally, Michael leads a meditation on having an inner realization that the good you seek is already here. ✍️Love Take Back Your Mind? This podcast grows through your support.
