For this week’s Mindful Monday video/podcast, Waylon offers little mindful and eco tips for our planet and our health from inside his secondhand-renovated, eco-friendly shower and little bathroom. “It’s not that the little things are gonna fix everything, but billions of us doing the little things, or at least not doing the bad things…micro can become macro—that’s how Capitalism works: supply and demand. ” ~ Waylon Lewis Subscribe to get our full conversations weekly.

Waylon encourages us to honor Earth Day every day, not just one day a year. Giving a care for our one and only planet is not about being perfect, or being a goody-two-shoes, but about living a mindful life and ensuring future generations can as well. "Ultimately, like any kind of love, any kind of open heart, caring is ultimately our only conduit or connection to a meaningful life—even if sometimes caring means we're sad. Let's try to actually honor Earth Day and actually honor equity and actually honor and address our climate crisis in a meaningful way." ~ Waylon Lewis  Subscribe to get our full conversations weekly.

Waylon talks with long-time friend Sue Van Raes about mindful eating, staying in the present moment, traveling, our personal food stories, and just eating the nachos.   Her new book, “Food and Freedom,” is out now!  "We can look back at our lives, look back at our stories...and we all have our food story. But we also have many other stories that play into how we relate to food. So we can look back and investigate...   ...and then just eat the nachos! Recognizing what's happening in the moment, right? Just simple recognition.   What's so important to consider is that if we decide to eat nachos...eat nachos.    Just fully be there with them. Enjoy the nachos. What happens so much is that we might go and do that thing that's a little bit indulgent or feels really pleasure-based, but then because we're checked out, we're not even enjoying it." ~ Sue Van Raes Subscribe to get our full conversations weekly.

If you allow gaps, your heart will flourish..” ~ Waylon Lewis, Chapter 10: “It’s Never too Late to Fall in Love with your Life.” Get Waylon's two books.
