There are really three currencies in life: time, energy, and money. Most people would probably guess time and money, but energy may not be an obvious answer. Compared to time and money, energy might be the hardest currency to track.

When I heard Frigga say this quote to Thor, I sat up a little taller in my seat—she had my attention. I...
This morning, my friends and I did a breathwork session, which has become something we do each year we make the trip. Before we started, our guide was talking to us and said something that stood out to me: “We should love people for who they are, not just accept them for who they are, because that brings acceptance, which implies judgment. We should just love them for who they are.” I’ve never really thought about how acceptance, which we take to be a positive thing, still implies some sort...
