How can we forget the most important thing of all–being alive & loving each other? We don’t need a traumatic event to lose each other; distraction can do it or losing ourselves in our devices. Stop & remember what’s most important in your life. ow.ly/STaz30nF6fN

When we use mindfulness to help us to understand rather than to judge, we can find our balance. Don’t judge yourself. Joy and frustration, worry and trust each come in their season. We practice to be present for today’s states of mind. #mindfulness #equanimity #trudygoodman

While this in no way suggests a solution to the situation these children find themselves in, we believe a collective moment of lovingkindness offered to them will keep them in our hearts and inspire us all to do more.

The President seems to think he can sell #PrideMonth merchandise on his campaign website, but hide the flag at our embassies. America's commitment to LGBTQ equality should be steadfast, loud and yes, proud 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇸nbcnews.com/politics/nationa…

This is outrageous. New York was honored to raise the LGBTQ pride flag over the State Capitol earlier this week. New York proudly stands with the LGBTQ community, during Pride Month and always, even if the Trump administration does not.​ nbcnews.com/politics/nationa…

No amount of new technology will stop continuing warfare, racism and environmental destruction. This is a pivotal point in our history. The powers of science and technology now have to be matched by the inner developments of humanity. youtu.be/fIQz3Ez4ETs

The Buddha lived, taught & meditated in the forests & groves of India. He knew that living close to nature supports relaxing our minds & calming our hearts. Perhaps one of the best things we can do to protect the earth is to spend time in nature. ow.ly/kTaK30oov3f

This weekend I am at a mindfulness conference. This is something I never thought of or had any interest in before the 2016 election. Now, I meditate daily, and am picking up what mindfulness is putting down.

Mary Oliver was a dear friend of mine and when I heard this morning that she had passed away, my heart sank and my eyes filled with tears. I looked up to the rainy sky and said, "May God bless you, my friend. May you be safe on this new journey of yours."

Greetings from Adiannamalai in India where I’m on retreat. Here is the meditation hall where I’ve been spending much of my time (Arunachala in background). Wherever you are today, whenever you are present, aware, intending to be kind, you are also on a pilgrimage. 🧘🏻‍♀️ 🇮🇳 ❤️🙏
