Ciao from Sardinia this week!

I've been traveling the globe to interview wise locals and experts on life longevity + happiness + wellness around the globe .. this month I've been studying in Italy + Sardinia!

In order for the monks here in Ravello, Italy and throughout the world to pray, they acknowledge that dark places do exist & we can choose to do the same & make light from it. 

Wabi sabi— life is not meant to be perfect. 

It’s about accepting more, growing, choosing to be different — it can be so fulfilling, too. 

 

Some Actionable Ways to Help you Boost your Mental Health + what we learn in this episode: 

• the answer is being there for others - check in more often
• make no assumptions about other's lives 
• learn more about what you can do to help mental health issues in your community 
• be real af, stop wearing a mask + pretending everything is perfect
• Get out there and find a job you love that helps others!

If you are in TV, media, modeling, publishing, the arts -- I urge you, especially the executives and producers to please start changing the face of media--- its so fake and contrived and not realistic. 

• let's focus on media, publishing + programming that is positive + uplifts more! 
• less on drama, competition and tearing one another apart
• less on violence and terror 
• Remember to Practice: 
• MORE on love, peace + the cultivation of better community 
• pray for others 
• exercise more often - plan a schedule to work out 5 days a week 
• get some sunshine + get outside
• tell others they mean so much to you! a sense of belonging and what to live for
• YUIMARU - your inner circle is important 
• know that life for all is perfecty imperfect -- #WabiSabi

The only way we can change the face of media, is if we all start making our masks off. Life is not perfect.
If you can’t be real.. how could you ever be well?
