Where there's Love there is Joy and when there is Joy there is Peace!

Frank and Lisa continue the conversation and the journey during the COVID-19 pandemic and provide a guided meditation on being aware of what connects you to a deeper place of calm. What do you connect to that bring you joy? Walking in nature, taking time to meditate? They discuss how using mindfulness techniques to explore awareness opens a place where the richness of life that can be experienced when you're present, go within and find out what's true. The discussion provides an invitation to connect to your deeper sense of calm and purpose and reveals your own personal inner guide as opposed to listening to all the conflicting and paradoxical information coming in from the outside world.

In life we have many habitual, patterned ways we react to something, non helpful reaction to what's happening that cloud out that inner calm. What happens in the space “before thinking”? Inner calm is there-it is in every human being no matter what.

in this discussion, learn how to connect to your inner calm. A good word to describe this inner calm is equanimity. Equanimity a bit difficult to explain but refers to a cool and quiet sense of stillness that we all can attain. It looks like calm amidst the storm, It looks like stability amongst the unstable -Solid...stable...thoughtful...clear-that's equanimity. No matter what your brain may tell you everyone has that within them.
