As fun and joyful as this time of year is and should be, there are some of us who find it hard. We may get anxious about the need to do, be or feel the right way. We may suffer mentally, psychologically, or physically when we feel others are having a wow of a time. If you feel this way, can you access support?

Would you like to learn ways to be kind, caring, understanding and accepting of what you are experiencing when you are suffering in this way?

MBSR is a beautiful, supportive and strengths-based, holistic way to take care of yourself through mindfulness and meditation. In the hands of an experienced, caring and responsive instructor (Angie Bucu) and a willingness to tap into your own inner goodness, you can walk the path to living through these times with greater resilience, more openness and understanding. And this is truly caring for yourself and others in your life.

If you’d like to know more about how this can help you get in touch and we can have a 1-1 chat to help you explore if the MBSR is right for you.

The early bird offer for the next public offering closes on Dec 31.

Joining communities...finding your sangha. In this newsletter I share details of one and two day mindfulness and meditation retreats.

🌟Community is more than a place to practice together. In community we share our common intentions, we learn to listen deeply to ourselves and others and we find a collective compassion in the stillness. I hope you will join us.

Joining communities...finding your sangha
I bring together the communities I share my work with...because this work and these events are for everyone...we are one community of friends supporting each other - and those around us through presence, attention and a willingness to be balanced and even-minded together.

How Do Elementary Students Show Kindness to Others? 11/10/2023

Kids really do care about being kind and caring for each other. They also receive this in different ways than their teacher does - and by extension other adults. A really interesting study out of Canada shares that the “results suggest that classmates, more so than teachers, notice and appreciate others who think about, and therefore enact, kindness in ways that are compassionate and inclusive. Perhaps this is because classmates are more likely to be the beneficiaries of children’s compassion and inclusion than teachers.”

What do you think or find I. Your classrooms?

How Do Elementary Students Show Kindness to Others? We asked fourth and fifth graders about how they think about kindness—and they were particularly attuned to compassion and inclusion.
