It's hands-off for a while between us. Yet, the healing can go on. Explore meaningful, simple ways to live a sustainable, joyful life, from my favorite joy researcher.

Years ago I listened to an episode of the podcast On Being where Krista Tippett interviews writer and Buddhist teacher Sylvia Boorstein. This interview has ended up being a touchstone for me, one that I continue to come back to, because of all the generous wisdom that Boorstein shares. But there’s one moment in particular that came to mind as I started to think about how we regain our footing amid the disorientation and upheaval of the current Covid-19 crisis.

My apologies ... while I was having some fun writing a purposely tongue-in-cheek post about something real and important regarding fat in our diet and the body's desperate need for more than we are giving it ... upon review, it was a terribly written piece!

I’ve lost 50 pounds with this method, which is the first time in over 20 years my weight has gone down instead of up. And, I didn’t change my diet, because it was already clean and, during the largest of the largess years, quite minimal. So, my diet was not the reason for the weight gain. Others have figured out the trick, too, but between fear and overcomplicating, most end up avoiding the very thing that could potentially save them. So, let's un-complicate it, shall we?
