We are buoyed by the things that connect us. Feeling safe in the body, feeling able to be with the body in all of those experiences in the sphere of the body. Polyvagal nervous system theory. We have survived all of times because of community. We as humans co-regulate one anotherWe are all in some form of collective trauma right now. Alleviate some local sufferingEnhanced understanding of the need for the black lives matters movementWe can make some kind of impactThe selfless part We can do good in the world Are we doing something because we are seeking comfort? There has always been global suffering, it’s going to get closer and closerWhat does it mean to alleviate someone else’s suffering?Random act of kindness, then investigate we did and why we did itHumanitarians evolution is dependent on this. Are we in right relationship with self? Are we in right relationship with others, with community?Are we taking care to serve others?Are we being thoughtful about how our actions impact others? It matters in a way that it hasn’t mattered before. A moral ground of studyHow willing are we to think about the wellbeing of others?Seeing is empowerment, how do we take it and grow from it? The thing about this time is that it’s bringing to light what needs to be healed. Every time you get sick is an opportunity to get better. We are sick as a nation and global community, those collective illnesses are all coming to the surface. There is a wound or boil that’s been lanced. The real healing is to let it come up and clean out. Careful to not put a pretty bow around things right now. Covid has been a homeopathic doseThat denial has been similar to the pandemicTrust the divine unfoldingThis can put us in check to save our planet. We see people organizing on the streets and we need to do that for the planet. What is happening right now is an opportunity to invite healing, but each and every one of acting on that purest impulse to alleviate suffering in others. We know that there are so many needs and it’s hard to think that one person could make an impact. We are in a collective freeze. We need to work with the voice that says “I can’t make an impact”, or “I don’t know where to start”. Reaching out to others saying I don’t want to create something from scratch but I want to be a bridge. We can always do something. We can all strengthen our muscles in our personal relationships Answering the call of the steps, or of being in service to each other. Little things strengthen us. If that little voice comes that says “I don’t have any impact” we don’t listen. Question to listeners: Small ways we are trying to be of service to each other. Remember what the small things are. There is a lot that we can do: Support small local businesses right now. Vote, have a voting plan ready. Think about the individuals in your life and the elderly. Try to get to know a neighbor you don’t know yet. Spreading a little bit of happiness to others can have huge ripple effectsWe should always have hope and optimism I believe in people and our capacity. Never underestimate that you are needed and valued. We are co-creatingCreating time that’s unscheduled. Living a gratitude daily naming practiceAbundance is just the nature of life.
