Being at peace isn’t about feeling good or not feeling anxious. It’s about meeting life, no matter what arises, with an open and responsive heart. It is a steadiness of mind and a calm understanding that allows us to be with the constantly changing and shifting landscape of our world. Peace does not mean indifference or apathy, rather it is a spaciousness of mind that empowers loving-kindness and compassion and reminds us that we are, in truth, not as alone as we sometimes feel.
Here is an exclusive look at Sharon’s talk “Find Peace in Challenging Times” from our 2021 Mindfulness for Healthcare Summit.
