🌉 BRIDGING THE GAP

Episode 8: Finding Refuge Within: https://youtu.be/rd8mIty_uRs

✨ Where do we turn when the world feels overwhelming? True refuge is not found outside but within.

🧠 Neurology of Safety

• ​ When stressed, the brain’s amygdala signals danger, even when there is none.
• ​ Deep breathing and grounding techniques activate the parasympathetic nervous system, bringing calm.

❤️ True Refuge: Mind, Heart, and Connection

• ​ Refuge isn’t escape; it’s cultivating an inner space of peace.
• ​ We find it in breathing, meditation, wisdom, and genuine connection.

🌬️ Breath as Sanctuary

• ​ Inhale safety and stability. Exhale fear and uncertainty.
• ​ Your breath is always with you—it is your home.

💭 “You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.” — Buddha
