Hey everyone, my name is Jeremy and I am new here. I would say that the one thing that people don't know about me is that when I was younger it was my dream to be in film and/or graphics design. So, I am sticking my neck out there and started a youtube channel. Wish me luck!

My childhood growing up is in Ann Arbor. am a unique person in my own ways and my role modal is Sabrina the teenage witch.

I have a caseworker from cmh and I ask her to get something for me and she is not willing to do it so I add my advocate of mine on the same email and I also let my parents know even my husband to.

This week's question asks: What is your heart asking you for today? Take a moment to sit quietly in a safe and comfortable space, to close your eyes gently, and to ground your attention in the heart space - both the physical and energetic heart. Get curious: if your heart were to ask you for something in this moment, on this day, what might it ask you for?

For those interested in the connection between mindfulness, spirituality, and climate change (and the environmental crises we face more broadly speaking), you may be interested in this talk by Joanna Macy. Her name keeps cropping up in things that I come across, but I haven't read any of her work yet. That said, I feel really connected to her words here. She speaks about acknowledging our grief about the state of the world, mistaking ourselves to be separate from the world, feeling gratitude for being alive, and much more. I also love, love, love the poem she recites by Rainer Maria Rilke (starting at 08:30). Curious to hear your thoughts and reflections if you have a listen:

Hi Laurie! Welcome to the community... from a fellow INFJ

"She Embraced Her Courage While She Simultaneously Embraced The Beauty That Gave Birth To It."

I'm an INFJ-A, Highly Intuitive, Clairvoyant, and Extremely Empathic... I'm a Spirit Heart Warrior of Light with a Gypsy Soul.

Lovely reflection! Yes, mindful listening is such a beautiful thing to practice and to get better at. That's a great example of the less 'formal' mindfulness practices that impact the world.

It is so interesting you bring up Gaia TV as this seems to be floating around my awareness recently. I may subscribe! Also, if you haven't yet seen it in the teacher training area, Dr. Rick Hanson (who wrote Neurodharma) held two workshops for the program. He dives into some of the neuroscience in these trainings. You can find them in the Workshops area: https://teach.mindfulnessexercises.com/workshops/

Today's affirmation for me is: I am enough. This moment is enough.

As I have grown far more mindful as a listener and more mindful of my verbal responses, deep friendships have grown. The ripple effect is that I have become someone that people can turn to and trust with their deepest feelings. Listening well to each other is beautiful result of mindfulness.

The question today was unusual; how would I feel if I found that a poem that had moved me was written by a computer? My first thought was how brilliant the computer programmer must be!

Hi again, I am interested in learning all I can. Mindfulness and higher level consciousness is fascinating. I am immersing myself in this topic. I just ordered the book Bliss Brain, that’s will be my “summer reading”. I’m not a romance novel kind of person. The neuroscience research of mindful meditation is intriguing to me. I used to be a MRI Technologist ( something you didn’t know about me). So, the functional MRI imaging related to meditation is amazing to me!! I also recently found Gaia TV! This is a whole new world.

I do my meditation with my eyes open and am planning to change my wellbeing that is my gratitude.

I use to weigh at 161.2 pounds and I went down to 154 pounds

Hi Jill! Welcome to the community. I'm Gillian - the community moderator. Let me know if you have any questions about this platform. What does your personal mindfulness practice entail? Are there any practices or mindfulness-related topics you're interested in learning more about?

What I want from this challenge. I hope to grow in my experience of Mindfulness. I aspire to reach a higher level of consciousness. Grow in self compassion and worldly compassion. As a student in the teacher training program, I will use this challenge as part of my practice log. promt 2 What will be an obstacle to practicing every day. Right now my obstacle is tiredness. When I don’t sleep enough, my brain is off. Having the mediations in my email each morning is a big help.
