Mindful Moments: Reflecting on George Floyd's Legacy
Right now is not a time to hear from me. Right now, what I need to do is listen, and I need to be engaged.
When the world feels heavy, sometimes the best thing to do is pause. In this heartfelt episode of 'Is This All There Is?', host Todd Brossart takes a step back from the usual programming to honor George Floyd, whose tragic death shook the globe. Rather than proceeding with business as usual, Todd chooses to reflect on the pain and unrest that followed Floyd's killing.
His message is simple but profound: take a moment to breathe, to listen, and to be present with your emotions. This episode underscores the importance of mindfulness and self-care, especially in times of turmoil. Todd also introduces listeners to resources like the Mental Events mindfulness journal, which helps examine the mind’s responses to problems and offers a way to detach from negative thoughts.
For those looking to weave mindfulness into their daily lives, he shares a free six-day mini-course titled 'At Ease: Mobilizing Mindfulness'. Todd's thoughtful approach encourages everyone to engage with their community and find solace in moments of stillness. This episode is a gentle reminder that even in chaos, we can find pockets of peace and opportunities for healing.
