In this podcast, Mayim Bialik chats with Michael Singer, the author of *The Untethered Soul*. They delve into Singer's idea of spiritual awakening, which he views not as a one-time event but as a gradual journey toward recognizing the distinction between ourselves and our thoughts. Singer points out that when we identify too closely with our thoughts and past experiences, we hinder our awakening. However, by observing these thoughts from a distance, we can let go of negativity and discover inner peace and joy. The conversation also touches on how to apply this understanding in everyday life—covering topics like relationships, parenting, and careers—while emphasizing the significance of surrendering and releasing self-created anxieties.
