The Year of You (Part II)

During this podcast, Pam continues the conversation about Loving Kindness in the YEAR OF YOU. During our time together we will talk about random acts of kindness given to you by a stranger. Do you remember how good that feels?

POINTS FROM THE PODCAST:

“The world needs more kindness” ~Ariane Pfaff

  1. A moment of sharing -Talk to someone in the grocery line with strangers.

  2. Regular acts of compassion can be done with hand written notes.

  3. Compliment another person when you see them offering loving-kindness.

  4. Try NOT to tell a stranger how, “I have been there…”

    “The world needs more kindness” ~Ariane Pfaff

  5. Be mindful of where you get your NEWS. Be mindful of what energy you bring into your home. There is a time and place for what you allow into your life. 

  6. SILENCE - Many of us struggle with being alone with our thoughts. So how to we calm the monkey brain? Pam often uses a walking chant or practices the breath prayer to get to a peaceful place. We all approach silence in different ways, for some of us it can be as simple as listening to music. 

  7. LETTING GO - Pam offers her favorite prayer for letting go. The hands up, hands down to help let go of anything that she is holding onto or that was never hers to begin with. Another example is taking a stone and physically walking with in natures and then LETTING IT GO.
