Stop Letting People Destroy Your Life | Trent Shelton

About this video

Shelton argues that the coronavirus pandemic poses a greater mental and spiritual threat than a physical one, urging viewers to fight for their mental health during this crisis. He shares his personal practice of stopping on a bridge to evaluate his worries and leave behind what he cannot control, emphasizing that worry brings confusion rather than solutions.
