Deep respect for the maturity & courage of this incredible leader, faced with appalling ignorance. It’s time for an organized, strategic global response. Ukraine needs & deserves our support.

Teaching #mindfulness has offered me many blessings, but this one will stay with me:

Today, my nearly 90-year-old grandma asked me to teach her #meditation. She believes it could support her at this stage of life and is excited to learn from her granddaughter. We start next week. 🥹🙏
As I’ve reflected on how best to meet this moment, it’s clear that compassionately befriending myself is a critical first step. But what does that really mean, and how can I get started?

Here’s some guidance & a #practice to help you begin the process - no #meditation experience required. ❤️🙏

Hey #Canadians! PSA that I found shopping for exclusively Canadian made products at the grocery store today pretty easy. I only made a few small sacrifices, with quality swaps for almost everything, and similar cost. Most shoppers were checking labels too. We got this! #TeamCanada
Last month I visited #Cambodia for the first time and it stole my heart. Of course the temples were awe inspiring, but I’ll return for the food, the nature, and especially, the amazing, warm-hearted people. ❤️🙏🇰🇭
If you’re struggling with difficult emotions around the state of the world, you aren’t alone. Here I share some thoughts & a practice that’s supporting me so much right now. You don’t need to have any experience with meditation or mindfulness to benefit; just a little time and some curiosity. ❤️‍🩹🙏

I hear you! It’s been such a hard month. I’m glad you’re finding ways to care for yourself and take breaks from it all. I’ve been focussed on that too. I’m going to share a video of a practice that I have found particularly helpful.
Yesterday I cried (again) as I read about the horrifically hateful, harmful, incompetent response by the Trump administration.

I believe the most beneficial & needed response to hate is to love. And yet, it demands to be named: THIS IS NOT OK.

This essay expresses it heartbreakingly well. 😓💔
