Wow. Perfect video for me to watch at this time. I let go off a relationship almost 4 months ago. It's been a long time coming. It took me forever to be able to walk away. I am starting to feel better and appreciate that it had to be done with no guilt. I still love this person but I needed to practice some self-preservation. Thank you.
I have to break away from most family members and it's painful and lonely, but now i can take care of my physical and mental health. I see a therapist monthly, go to the gym, drink plenty of water and block the news and politics (things my family abused me with)
I am not alone then? I in that process too and I talk with my doktor too and it all feels good to airate it all and the pain hurts less and less evey few weeks. I grow. Wish you luck ❤
@ZenPhilosophy1723 Better to have no comment, then an insincere cut and paste comment, that bears no relationship or resemblance to what people are sharing and communicating.
I am in the process of letting go of my dear friend and yes it is painful. I guess we tend to hold on for way too long knowing the sadness will follow when you let go. I need to be gentle with both of us and do the work necessary for my own healing. Time also is a good healer. Thank you.
Letting go of a close friend is never easy, and the pain can feel overwhelming. It's natural to hold on too long, but healing requires time and self-compassion. Sometimes, it's important to recognize when it's time to move on for personal growth. I've learned that self-care and reflection help during this process. Being kind to ourselves and accepting that healing takes time allows us to create space for new, positive energy in our lives. Letting go isn’t about losing someone-it’s about making room for what’s to come.
Thank you for these videos. They have been very helpful for me during a time of profound change in my life. I am very grateful for this guidance. To the people complaining about the quality of the audio, please remember these lessons are offered freely. As the old American saying goes, "do not look a gift horse in the mouth." 😉

Beautifully said. I let go of a toxic transactional non reciprocal relationship 21 months ago. It’s not been an easy journey and for a while I was very emotionally unstable, extremely sad and disappointed but out of all of that is emerging something amazing. I’ve found me! Learning to love and embrace me. ❤. How awesome is this journey of self discovery and self love. I am truly inspired by the courage I have shown in walking away and would encourage others to do the same and save themselves, as the video rightly says no one else is going to do this for you - only you can.
I have been in the process of walking away/ letting go/ forgiving my toxic father. I have just been able, through meditation, to see things from his side. Not diminishing my side at all, just seeing his pain that he refuses to let go of, and it has helped me let go of my pain in pity. That he had to take it out on someone. I still have more healing to do, and I cannot have a healthy relationship with my father, but I'm in the direction of forgiveness. I never thought I could be here.
Thank you so much for this beautiful teaching. It brings peace and acceptance for what is present. It alleviate the burden of the past, heading towards a new future with open mind and freedom. Invaluable teaching
Thanks for this video. I think one has to have experienced true toxic or narcissistic relationships to totally understand this. Unfortunately it is sometimes hard to end a relationship in a zen way, but it’s still necessary for self preservation.
In everything I've heard in this video it rings true. If you are young you cannot see the wisdom that is being told here because you may have a lot of friends. But in time you will see them disappear if they mostly no longer can use you or things from you. Things that you might get back after a long time or never again. Maybe even damaged. If you've lived many years you realize how true it is what is being said here. The last friendship I had was one that lasted for over forty years. That began in childhood. And when I realized it wasn't real friendship but because of what things could be used from me and the lack of respect for me or my belongings then I knew something was lacking. And when I disagreed in conversations because of my own thoughts and that would upset my "friend " it was time to end the friendship. I felt it was a one way street instead of mutual respect

House prices in the UK are imprisoning adult children in their toxic parents houses. So for many Millennials, it's a choice between mental health or homelessness.
Is it possible to avoid repetitions? In every segment we hear ‘the empty cup’ and ‘disattachment’ analogies, i think by now we get the message after all these videos. Is it possible that this channel can dive deeper so we can benefit more from it?
How to know if you should allow an adult child back into your life if u believe there was growth/remorse in area for reason you detached from them especially if detaching means not seeing your young grandchildren
She saw that he wasn’t protecting her …in grief ,she escaped into the war …she was only able to escape because he wasn’t protecting her….he had to wait 9 years and a lifetime … amends
What do I do with the grief of my husband of 69 years dying? I think I have it under control and then it comes back like a hurricane. I don’t want to let go of the memory of him. We were everything to each other. I don’t want to let go of the love we had for each other, the grief is so painful but I’m afraid that I will lose connection with him. I don’t have it.
This isn't about letting go of the memories of someone you loved. It's about toxic people who pollute your personal environment. Your emotions and fond memories are fine. Keep him near your heart and have gratitude for the wonderful life experiences that you both shared. Time and understanding are good emotional healers.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Grief is a reflection of the deep love you shared, and it’s okay to feel its weight. Holding on to his memory doesn’t mean letting go of the love you had-it will always remain in your heart. Be kind to yourself in this process. ❤
Your loss must be enormous. 69 years is a testament to your love you both had. As this video states breathe deeply and feel your feelings for as long as you can stand. Grief is hard and it's more than ok to hold on to your love. Take care of you. I am truly sorry for your loss.💐
This AI generated reading is so awful. Can't you find a real human with a soul and emotions for this? I don't think AI and Buddhism really go together well. Or at all.
This does not seem like a very zen attitude. This sounds like a mesh mash of disjointed quotes used out of context that people eat up because it sounds good and strokes their ego.
