The heavy is the root of the light. The unmoved is the source of all movement. Thus the master travels all day without leaving home. However splendid the views, he stays serenely in herself. Why should the lord of the country flit about like a fool? If you let yourself be blown to and fro, you lose touch with your root. If you let restlessness move you, you lose touch with who you are.

By reflecting on Stephen Mitchell's translation, 'If you let yourself be blown to and fro, you lose touch with your root', they reveal how restlessness can disconnect you from your true self. Through engaging conversations, they share practical tools to stay sober, especially during challenging times like the holidays.
