We all know that our world has its share of challenges, but it's getting better. The marginalized people from decades ago, still have challenges, but now they have allies and support. Even kids TV has gotten a bit gentler. More and more people are being seen and respected, and that means a calm for all of us.

We all have a "default" way of showing up for the world and the people around us. But we also know that many things can impact us in ways that throw our usual demeanor into something else. We can become quiet, worried, anxious; any variety of things. But do you when the "other you" is more prevalent? Having some signs can add to our level of calm. Let's talk about it.

The simple things we do each day don't require much mental energy, and so, when we are doing them, we send our minds on to other things; mostly worry. We send them anywhere but where we are, this moment. Guess what happens then? You know. So how about giving our attention to the easy tasks, and in doing so, become calmer, mindful. Let's talk about it.

Much of the world is on auto-pilot; just reacting to whatever shows up in the day. They don't plan or contemplate, they just impulsively act on whatever feeling they have at the moment. There is another way, and it isn't specifically about mapping out every part of your life. It's as simple as setting intentions each day. Let's talk about it.

You guessed it; I'm going to throw a little shade on society today…one thought in particular. It has to do with busyness.

Let's talk about it.
