It is such a teaching in itself for us, all of us, every moment when we're with anyone.

Each one of us regardless of our situation, is in our search of our most authentic, vital, generous and wise self.

One practice I rely on all the time is basic meditation which allows me to strip away the noise. It's like the old-fashioned dial on the radio, where you were getting static and then you found that clear, sweet spot on the dial, where the music would come through. That's what meditation is for me. Dialling out the static, the noise, the anxiety, the fear, and coming into a place that's deep and quiet. It's like dropping into a well of inspiration and wisdom.

I'm very much a family person, and that's always my first priority.

We have little control over the outer weather patterns as we make our way through the landscape of a life. But we can become masters of the inner landscape. We can use what happens on the outside to change the way we function on the inside.

Grief is good...it is a sign of how well we have loved.

I know that if we allow ourselves into the gridlock of tribalism, we're in trouble.
