What do you think would happen if 35,000 people were dying for no reason in the United States or Great Britain?

Are you willing to look very, very carefully about why we are not responding to exactly this situation in third world countries?

Presence

There are times when words are not only unnecessary, they detract from a situation. In the midst of chaos, the busyness of life or a significant life event, take a single minute with a person you love absolutely and without condition, stand opposite them and simply focus on how much you appreciate their presence in your life for one minute.

Is the first thing you want to do when the minute is over is speak to them?

Prepare for the Unexpected

Tonight I reviewed the eulogy a dear friend was writing
for one of his best friends, who died very young,
leaving a wife and small children.
The only thing I could think
that might be important to those with
whom he will speak is to once again remember
that there is no second beyond this second guaranteed.

What on Earth could be more important in this last
second than an expression of loving-kindness to or with
another being?

Testimonials

Constant awareness of how I approach others, and how I hold them when I approach them, has been a really revelatory concept for me. In some respects, it has given words to something I had always been doing, and in others it has significantly increased my ability and willingness to do this all the time.

For me this is probably the most “radical” change in my life.

[This course] is one of only a few that had real life applications that helped prepare me to teach

Thinking about standards boundaries, things I tolerate and things that excite me are all very powerful and things we should but likely would not do unless prompted like this!

Through this course I began “living” the beliefs. I demonstrated them more naturally and comfortably. Instead of having to remind myself, I began innately “becoming” that inspired teacher I always had in me but only called upon at certain times. I changed. I am complete in every area of my life.

With each session, the conversation became easer and easier to grasp and experience. This was primarily resulting from the mounting proof that the conversation was real and true…it is the holistic nature of the conversation, as one conversation, that makes the process so satisfyingly effective.
Roy Chatterjee | Portland, ME

My entire world has changed and I see things a lot differently today than I did before I began this process…I’m a lot more grounded and am learning how my self-care allows me to take better care of myself so I can be a better leader to my team; lead by example.
