The Lost Gift

Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?

– Charles Bukowski –

The Lost Gift

Writing in his journal, nine year old Abeer speaks of his frustrations with having to always prove himself at school and at home, never being allowed to be himself. His heartfelt and eye-opening words remind us that each child really is unique and should be cherished as such. The poignant message is, “Don’t look at who your child could be, but who your child is.” As Abeer points out, if children truly are the best gift, “you’re not supposed to fix the best gift.”

The Inner Shield Against Covid-19

Food isn’t just generic energy–it’s molecular information. In addition to fueling the mitochondrial powerhouses, food tells our cells what to do and serves as building blocks for hormones, brain chemicals, and cell membranes.

– Cynthia Li –

The Inner Shield Against Covid-19

Cynthia Li MD is a gifted physician and author who has had experience with battling an autoimmune disorder and recognizing both the power and limits of conventional medicine. “In the current pandemic, the strength of your immune system is the critical difference between milder and more severe illness caused by the COVID-19 virus. In a gift e-booklet, ‘How to Shield Yourself Against COVID-19,’ Li offers key science-based strategies, beyond physical distancing and hygiene measures, for building up what she calls your “inner shield.””A copy of this vital booklet is linked to at the end of the following piece.

Spotlight On Kindness: Going Off-Script

Humans, on the whole, are creatures of habit and easily accustomed to playing certain roles in our lives. This weeks’ stories remind us to challenge our assumptions and status quo, make a real connection human-to-human, show up to the need of the hour, and don’t be afraid to go off-the-script. One never knows what we may learn about our relationships — as well as ourselves in the process. -Guri

Oriah Mountain Dreamer: The Call

The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you
Don’t go back to sleep!
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep.

– Rumi –

Oriah Mountain Dreamer: The Call

“I have heard it all my life. A voice calling a name I recognized as my own.
Sometimes it comes as a soft-bellied whisper.Sometimes it holds an edge of urgency. But always it says: Wake up, my love. You are walking asleep.
There’s no safety in that! Remember what you are, and let a deeper knowing color the shape of your humanness. There is nowhere to go. What you are looking for is right here.” Oriah Mountain Dreamer shares more in this beautiful poem. { read more }

Be The Change

What are you waking up to in this time? What is the call you are hearing?
