Take a pause. Is there any tension in your shoulders, neck, jaw, forehead or anywhere else? Try letting the tightness go as you exhale.

BE intentional about how you want to BE in the world! ✨

Sympathy: I am sorry you are in pain. (Distant) Empathy: I can imagine what this pain feels like. (Shared) Compassion: You are suffering and I will do what I can to help. (Connected and Action-oriented)

Living in a Pandemic is mentally and physically taxing. Take care of yourselves and the people around you as best you can while you can.

Self-love is revolutionary. We cannot fight for others when we're fighting a war inside ourselves. Compassion is a power that we first bestow on ourselves & then give away through our actions—to people, to our planet. When we recognize this, that is when love becomes our legacy.

PSA: If you've been performing a pre-pandemic version of yourself, STOP. You're doing yourself and others a disservice by perpetuating the myth that everything's okay and feeling otherwise is some how a moral failure. 1/4

5 questions to ask yourself at the end of each day: — What was worthwhile? — What did I let go of? — What did I hold on to? — What did I give? — Who needs my forgiveness? What am I missing?

Empathy and compassion are vital parts of being a leader. Thank you Ted Lasso for the beautiful display of it this week. ❤️

Wishing everyone less social media & more social in 2022. 💕

A community care practice: chill out on people. Relax more. Stop forcing things. Show empathy. Accept folks are going thru it right now. Be patient and do less. Take a breather.

I wish y’all would talk about community care as much as y’all talk about self-care. Bring the idea and term community care into our imaginations.

We tell stories in order to live. -- Joan Didion RIP

The French labor code prohibits workers from eating lunch in the workplace. The solo work lunch is also shunned in a culture that prizes a change of pace — and scenery — during the midday meal. So what did it take for the French to finally take a break? n.pr/3NHH6ut
