21. Love | Beyond Possession & Emotion

In this final episode of our 21-part Still Life Podcast series, Henry Mitchell and Jim George explore the most misunderstood word in the human language: Love.

Is it a feeling? A need? A hormonal drive? Or something much deeper?
We dismantle popular myths around romantic obsession, emotional dependence, and the ego’s distortions of connection—and point to the foundational force underneath it all: Capital L Love.

Through Stillness, this field becomes visible—not through thought, but direct experience.

Tune in to learn:
 • How to tell the difference between love and attachment
 • Why romantic love often leads to suffering
 • What makes Capital L Love liberating
 • Why the ego can’t access real love
 • How Stillness helps us return to our true nature

If you’ve ever asked, “What is love, really?” — this is the conversation you’ve been waiting for.
