A dear mindfulness colleague called me an hour before that moment in the grocery store, with urgency in her tone. “Have you gone shopping? You have to go shopping, right now, I’m not kidding. We are all about to go on lockdown, go get food right now!” My colleague is a doctor, her husband is a doctor, I thought they would be the first ones to laugh this whole thing off as some kind of social media mind-madness....
This is great, because you can only practice mindfulness if you’re aware of it. Nevertheless, the wildfire spread of recognition also brings challenges. With fast-growing breadth tends to come less depth, and there’s been a tendency for some mindfulness approaches to focus more on its supposedly easy wins (calming, appreciating the pleasant, simple stress relief in a very short time), and not so much on the potential for deeper, but perhaps more difficult shifts (facing and managing the unpleasant parts of life, letting go of fixed and false ideas about ourselves and the world, addressing social as well as individual stressors and stresses)....

It’s a reminder most of us would benefit from in our lives, with or without continual guidance from a wise, sardonic baseball catcher and equally sanguine girlfriend. Baseball for Care Providers This astute advice doesn’t only apply on the baseball diamond....

“It was nonstop for two years,” says Modabber, who has dark curly black hair and a warm smile. “That period in my life was so hard that I blocked it out. I don’t even remember my teachers’ names. The entire class turned on me.” Modabber is now the principal and founder of Golestan Education, a Persian-language preschool and after-school program in Berkeley, California that collaborates with other local schools on cultural education, where my son will be going to preschool next year....
Turns out Shaun was not my soulmate. I look back at the confused girl I was with a mixture of amusement and compassion. I was suffering. I thought my perfect mate existed. You did, too. Back then we all believed if we could only find that one special person he or she would make us happy, ever after. The problem is that now I’m 51, not 13, and yet traces of that longing still invade my mind and bedevil my relationship....
What you seem to be saying is that, as a direct result of practice, you happen to notice that you are able to “think outside the box” and be creative and innovative. I’d say your completely subversive “dirty little secret” might just change the culture of your business, and if you’re not careful, could infect your employees, too!
