Stop seeking. Start exploring.
What if the very thing you’ve been chasing has been within you all along?
In the last Weekly Wellness Tune-up episode, I dove into the quiet but powerful difference between seeking and exploring.
It’s the kind of shift that doesn’t just change your mindset, it rewires your whole relationship with life.
Curious? You should be. Let’s break it down.
We’re taught from a young age, especially in spiritual or self-development circles, that being a “seeker” is noble. But seeking carries tension. It's rooted in a sense of lack, a whisper that says, “You are not enough yet.” So we chase the next healer, the next insight, the next fleeting high.
But what if that quest is part of the illusion?
Seeking assumes we’re incomplete.
Exploring, on the other hand, knows we're already whole. It comes from curiosity, not desperation.
It says, “I wonder what will unfold if I show up fully in this moment,” instead of “What do I need to fix, find, or prove?”
Energetically, these two feel very different.
One is fueled by Rajas, restless fire. The other is Satva, clarity, light, trust.
Seeking tightens the body. It rushes. It grasps.
Exploring softens. It opens. It listens.
Exploration doesn’t mean apathy or passivity. It means engaging with life without an agenda. It's tasting the sacredness of now without demanding a roadmap.
It's trusting that if the divine exists, it's not somewhere out there, it’s right here, in the pause between breaths.
This week, ask yourself:
“What would it feel like to explore this moment instead of seeking the next one?”
Put your hand on your heart, take a deep breath, and let that question land.
