healing for the heart: mindfulness for heartbreak
whether it's romantic heartbreak or the heartbreak that comes from the state of the world -- we're often being asked to hold two opposing thoughts or emotions at the same time. this practice is an adaptation of another meditation i created a few years ago. inviting us to hold both, rather than cling to one and resist another, how can we create space in our hearts and minds for the complexity of this human life?
