What happens when we focus on #connecting instead of #comparing and #competing? What if we stopped asking, "What do you do?" and started asking, "How do you want to BE in the world?"

The French labor code prohibits workers from eating lunch in the workplace.
The solo work lunch is also shunned in a culture that prizes a change of pace — and scenery — during the midday meal.
So what did it take for the French to finally take a break? n.pr/3NHH6ut

I wish y’all would talk about community care as much as y’all talk about self-care. Bring the idea and term community care into our imaginations.

A community care practice: chill out on people. Relax more. Stop forcing things. Show empathy. Accept folks are going thru it right now. Be patient and do less. Take a breather.
Empathy and compassion are vital parts of being a leader. Thank you @TedLasso for the beautiful display of it this week. ❤️

3. The Law of Growth
Wherever u go there u are. It is we who must change & not the ppl or things around us if we want to grow spiritually.
All we are given is ourselves.That is the only thing we have control over
When we change who we are within our hearts, our lives follow suit

1/ The five-day workweek has been standard in the U.S. for almost a century. It's time to cut it down to four.
Here’s my article in @TheAtlantic:

@tapairportugal After THREE hours, I was told by a rep that I would not be getting a refund - when the flight was canceled due to a GLOBAL PANDEMIC. They would not allow me to talk to a supervisor or give me any information. I strongly advise against ever flying Air Portugal.
@tapairportugal I have spent a year trying to get a refund for a flight that was canceled due to Covid. I have been on hold today for almost two hours just trying to get a representative. Emails are not answered. Yet your website says the refund has been approved. Please advise!
@tapairportugal I understand that airlines experienced a lot of overwhelm at the beginning of the #pandemic, but I did what I was advised to do at the time, and am now being told that you will keep my money, even though the flight never happened. How is this fair?

Study: 90 minutes of #hiking outdoors reduced activity in portions of the brain involved in rumination & worry. Plus, there was less activity in a portion of the brain involved in mental illness. Hiking is good for our #mentalhealth! #stressrelief bit.ly/357UDaX

5 questions to ask yourself at the end of each day:
— What was worthwhile?
— What did I let go of?
— What did I hold on to?
— What did I give?
— Who needs my forgiveness?
What am I missing?

PSA: If you've been performing a pre-pandemic version of yourself, STOP. You're doing yourself and others a disservice by perpetuating the myth that everything's okay and feeling otherwise is some how a moral failure.

Self-love is revolutionary. We cannot fight for others when we're fighting a war inside ourselves. Compassion is a power that we first bestow on ourselves & then give away through our actions—to people, to our planet. When we recognize this, that is when love becomes our legacy.

Sympathy: I am sorry you are in pain. (Distant)
Empathy: I can imagine what this pain feels like. (Shared)
Compassion: You are suffering and I will do what I can to help. (Connected and Action-oriented)

Living in a Pandemic is mentally and physically taxing. Take care of yourselves and the people around you as best you can while you can.
BE intentional about how you want to BE in the world! ✨
Happiness is intentional. If you’re going to experience joy in your life you have to schedule it.
Spending with my daughter makes me happy so I’ve scheduled it into my day.
What will you intentionally schedule into your day that will bring a smile to your face ? #Happiness

Take a pause. Is there any tension in your shoulders, neck, jaw, forehead or anywhere else? Try letting the tightness go as you exhale.
This is so beautiful! One of my favorite stories I’ve read about the last 9 months! It filled my heart - and we all need that right now! Thank you Sapphire and Eliana for sharing your friendship story! 💓 @saysthefox
