Culturally... globally... we are caught/trapped in the bands of the hurricane. Every moment of every day, we seek the right information that we might make the right choices - for ourselves and those we care about. Consider, for a moment, how life might change were we to move into the eye of the hurricane; move into that place of vast stillness and calm; ... Continue Reading >>

Mindful Choice vs Habituation
Far more important than any single, particular choice is the underlying - and far too often, invisible - process for choosing that determines the way we move through the world.

Dean Walker: Living Resilience – Deep Academy
That we know something does not mean that we know what to do with it, about it or because of it. Such is the state that we would be well advised to befriend.
