balance within that inner and interpersonal life that creates us 2nd that relates to " sense of balance" Explanation: 1st "that" relates to "rich inner and interpersonal life" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2018-05-22 15:10:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- so just remove the subclause "within that rich inner and interpersonal life" and you are left with: ...attain a sense of balance ...that both creates and embraces who we are and who we can become. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 29 mins (2018-05-22 15:26:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I read it twice myself to be 100% sure but this is clearly the main clause so it cannot, grammatically, refer to "life" but it's about "sense of balance" (IN that life). In other sections he probably refers to life itself. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 54 mins (2018-05-22 15:50:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- :-) |
