Hello, and welcome back to Practicing Human, the podcast where every day we're getting a little better at life.

I'm your host, Cory Muscarra, and before going into today's episode,

just want to let you know that this weekend is my next online retreat. The theme is going to be inner peace,

settling the agitation.

As always, these online retreats are two and a half-day

immersions. They're fully recorded, so you don't need to attend all the sessions live or any sessions live.

So if you're interested in the theme, you can sign up and add the program to your learning library and then just review it

at a time when it's convenient if you can't make the session live.

All the details are at the link in the show notes, Cory Muscarra.com forward slash retreat.

And we're just going to be exploring, doing a deep dive into how to settle all the different forms of agitation and the mind,

looking at things like regret or holding grudges, the inability to forgive, working with pain, confusion,

the things that create a stirring in the mind,

essentially how to create an inner home that feels deeply peaceful to live within,

which, in my opinion, is the greatest gift we can give ourselves in this lifetime and is our biggest work.

So if you'd like to join me for that, again, the link is in the show notes and directly at Cory Muscarra.com forward slash retreat,

the dates are April 1st through 3rd.

Okay, well, in this episode, we are going to talk about an aspect of inner peace.

More to come on that in a moment.

First, let's settle in together with the sound of the bells.

Okay, so the theme of inner peace is a big one and it's multifaceted and there are a lot of things we work on

and explore being with and help shape internally in the pursuit of cultivating true deep inner peace.

One of the deepest forms, though of peace, that I have found is living in integrity.
