Yesterday, a teacher in one of my classes told of a young faculty member who had died a couple of years ago and the impact it had had on her life. For the first time she realized that this was the only second we have. It caused her to communicate her love more fully to her eighty-nine year old Mother. It made her aware of the gift of air and light.

I wonder, without anyone else needing to die, if we can come to see every second as the gift it is?

Barack

Increasingly, I am aware of the attitude of “Barack (President Barack Obama served as President of the United States from 2008 until 2016) will fix this” in our society and around the world.

What three things could you and I do as individuals, today, that would allow us to understand more clearly the state of global economics, improve economic conditions or make the world a better place?

Make What You Will of the Miracle

Violence, damage, rudeness, inconsideration, greed, urgency, “stress,” pressure, scarcity, fear, doubt and contention

Peace, tranquility, consideration, beauty, dignity, grace, loving-kindness, joy, gratitude, hope, intention and integrity.

How is it possible that we can create such wildly different things in exactly the same situation or circumstance?

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.

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.
