If we know we need solitude and want to practice it, why do we have so much resistance to it? In this episode, we'll explore the common obstacles to solitude, such as daily distractions and the avoidance of confronting personal thoughts and emotions. We're also sharing more about the REALIFE Practice Membership launching in January, along with an invitation to join us for a free live call this week! We hope this episode helps you take small steps towards incorporating more silence and stillness into your everyday life.
