About this episode

Dr. Elizabeth Cook discusses the myth of balance and how to find alignment in a constantly changing life.

What do you do when everything you love is in motion at once? Amidst the changes of life and watching my children all grow up at differing stages of life in one season, I have been thinking about when or if there will ever be a year where things seem to calm down. I realized that the concept of balance is a myth and that a blending or alignment of life is how to stay present and grounded when life is constantly changing around you. Because the truth is that life is not a fixed point but a changing, transforming system that requires a different approach. Today on the blog & podcast, I am debunking the balance myth and sharing how to stay grounded and find alignment when life is in constant motion.
