Resolve to make an easy difference
Trees, Birds, Lizards & Bees
Most of us can't help but think about making resolutions this time of year. Others resolve to not make resolutions. But after recalling a neighbor who was determined to try to make people feel seen every day, I think I have found a resolution we can all make and keep no matter how you feel about them.

If You Help One, You Help All
Trees, Birds, Lizards & Bees
A new friend, Zhanna Bright of Soul Congruency, reminded me of a beautiful quote by Ram Dass to help me see that we are helping everyone when we help even one person.

I learned to meditate in a way that is easy to do and helps me experience what meditation is supposed to provide. In this podcast, I share what's helped me to truly cherish meditation.
info_outlineWhen a shaman friend learned that I had killed a rat in my garage, she commented that "it wasn't very Buddhist of me." My first thought was to be defensive but it caused me to rethink how to handle a rat that was partying nightly in my garage. This definitely opened up a new world for me and the rat.
Thank you to Peter Marin for allowing me to use "Autumn Leaves."
