The Pour-Over: The Power Of Surrender

Episode Description:

In this episode of Coffee Talk with Lina Midla, we dive into the transformative power of surrender. Learn how surrender isn’t about giving up, but about choosing to trust the process and soften into the flow of life. From the willow tree bending in the storm to the surfer riding the waves, Lina explores how we can embody surrender in our everyday lives; whether we’re dealing with our kids, navigating stress, or simply trying to control what’s beyond our reach.

Tune in as Lina shares actionable steps to help you practice surrender, including breathwork, movement, and even a bonus practice for embracing discomfort.

By the end of this episode, you’ll feel more equipped to let go, trust, and flow through life’s inevitable challenges with ease.

  • Practical steps for practicing surrender, including breathwork, movement, and journaling


Actionable Takeaways:
