Listen to Your Body Aug 26, 2021

Reduce Stress, Increase Resiliency Aug 12, 2021

There’s a common misconception that mindfulness can reduce stress. What mindfulness actually does is increase your stress resiliency, which is how we respond to stressors in our environment. Stress will never disappear — it’s a part of life — but through meditation and mindfulness, we can learn to control our reactions to it, making our response to stress less extreme.

The book Kessonga mentioned is Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabat-Zinn. You can also get a crash course on meditation and mindfulness in Andy’s book, Get Some Headspace.

Are You Bored? Jul 21, 2020

“Boredom” has become something negative. We see it as a condition of our lives that we must change.

Light vs. Warmth Jul 15, 2020

Mindfulness is good for many things, but we tend to look at it differently depending on where we’ve learned it.

One of the things we’ve been asked the most lately is about our eating habits during lockdown.
