COMPELLING WRITING
Harvard Business Review's That Discomfort You're Feeling is Grief, an article that resonates deeply with us at this time with the enormity of losses of all kinds during the COVID-19 crisis. This article explains how the collective grief in the air affects our minds and bodies, and offers tools and techniques for working with and working through these heavy emotions.
KRISHNA DAS "HANGING IN THE HEARTSPACE"
Free online satsangs - announced as they are scheduled. Krishna Das leads practices and sessions that are devotional, so this recommendation is unlike others on Mindful Mondays which are non-denominational and mindfulness-based or science-based. It's a beautiful practice if you are comfortable with bhakti yoga.
