Is your patience about as thin as a piece of dental floss these days?

Do you ever feel tortured by unmet desires?

Or even when your dreams and desires are met, do you have a hard time taking them in, savoring them, and enjoying them?

If so, there is a whole hidden valley of delight you've been missing out on.

It's called, anticipation.

In every desire there are three phases, anticipation being the first.

For many, anticipation is an unbearable experience of empty space waiting to be filled.

Or it can signify one's inadequacy, to want something so much and still after all these years, not have it.

When navigated skillfully, anticipation can actually be the most pleasurable and rewarding phase of them all.

Today on the podcast, I'm spilling the jellybeans. You'll learn:

The three phases of every desire
How to use anticipation to delight yourself, rather than torture yourself
One of the ways the whole nation is practicing anticipation right now, but doesn't even know it
How to navigate times of change more gracefully with artful anticipation
How to access a whole new dimension of pleasure from your desires with the skill of enjoying the wanting

Click the link above to listen in, but before you do let your mouse just....hover...for a moment....and feel the crackle of anticipation as you do.

Yearningly Yours,

Mary
