Contrast offers opportunity for focus

These are strange and uncertain times, with a great deal of underlying anxiety.

I am reminded that contrast gives us the opportunity to focus more on what we do want. And I am amazed by so much good, kindness, love I am seeing all around me. If you are in an emotional place where you are able to see something positive, what is it?

Here are some positive resources, and evidence of community coming together to support each other.

10% Happier is offering a live meditation every week day at 3pmET. I have found these extremely valuable and reassuring. https://www.tenpercent.com/live

My friend Judy Lubin is offering “Navigating the New Normal - Group Resilience Coaching” sessions. Thank you Judy!

I received this short video from a friend (thanks JD!).

And on a personal note, my wonderful yoga teacher Jaruska Solyova offered her first zoom class to her regular students and it was amazing. Thank you Jaruska! A bonus, since it was virtual, we didn’t have to put our blankets away afterwards…

My Toastmaster club is meeting virtually, and now I can give speeches even when I’m away from Chicago.

I’m walking several times a day, biking with my Dad, and doing Ujam with my brother Tom who is teaching classes online.

We have the opportunity to slow down, remember what’s most important, and come out the other end living more in alignment with our values. I’m wishing you all love, kindness, happiness, and well-being.
