We are all experiencing such an unusual situation. Something none of us have ever experienced. So many unknowns. So many kind gestures. So many opportunities for humanity. I am feeling hopeful for US during this time of social distancing. For each and every one of you. For doctors willing to do whatever it takes. [...]
A certainty we all share is that change is inevitable. Nothing and no one stays the same. Everything is constantly in a state of flux. Knowing and accepting this can help bring a sense of comfort. Minimizing anxieties tied to fears of the unknown. Allowing what is, while trusting the law of impermanence brings [...]
What is at the depth of our feelings? How do we connect and heal from past hurts? How can we let go of embarrassments and judgments that created layers of self-doubt?

It grows from actions we choose to take that support our physical, psychological and spiritual selves. True love of self means accepting who we are and requires self-compassion and maturity. It means expanding and finding more satisfaction [...]
