One does not practice meditation to become a great meditator. We meditate to wake up and live, to become skilled at the art of living.

The world needs women to redefine what it means to be a person of power

What wants to live in you may be waiting...at the end of a long loneliness.

First we forgive ourselves, then we forgive others and life itself.

We need each other's ideas. Now, I'm not talking about racist ideas or misogynistic ideas or cruel or criminal ideas. I'm talking about most of us who have very varied experiences, needs and ideas. It's really about believing that it's an important part of healing America.

Don't persuade, defend or interrupt. Be curious, be conversational, be real. And listen.

It's not always about survival, this life we are given; it's usually so much easier than that. It's about trusting the eternal life force that is flowing within us-letting that force lead the way through all of the inevitable changes we will face across the span of our time here on Earth.
