Hello everyone,
From the book Choose Your Story, Change Your Life by Kindra Hall.
Jonathan and Zara are husband and wife. Some time ago Jonathan had cancer.
The doctor warned Zara it was going to be aggressive. Essentially, they were going to take everything out of Jonathan—all the cells, the bad and the good. He would be admitted into the hospital and not be allowed out for a month.
“She told me to see it as a rebirth. And I liked that story. I decided to fully embrace that story. To celebrate it, even. What a beautiful thing to be completely new in your forties. Few people get that chance.” Zara told Jonathan the rebirth story and shared the doctor’s recommendation to lean into the idea. “Those who resist that story,” Zara said, “have a harder time and less desirable results.” If Jonathan could surrender and embrace that story, too, the mind could help lead the body down the path of healing.
Does "lean into the idea" mean accept/emrace the idea?
