First, From the Heart
I’m so inspired by all the attention Mental Health Awareness Month is getting this year. We remember when mental health challenges were not worthy of an organization’s time or focus in the recent past. Now that many organizational cultures have normalized the conversation around mental health, there is also deeper inquiry into what supports and nurtures our wellbeing.
Gratitude to all the researchers and practitioners seeking evidence-based answers! At yesterday’s live online Global Community Compassion Gathering, Dr. Stephen Trzeciak shared insights from his latest endeavor, gleaned from over 250 research studies. The book’s title, Wonder Drug, is the punchline. Acting with compassion and being of service is the prescription for a life well-lived. You can catch a description of the event and replay here.
We are also grateful for all the wisdom traditions and teachings that offer time-tested approaches to living wholeheartedly. We hope you are connecting with the principles, practices, and tools to support your compassionate leadership journey.
Thanks to each of you for your courage, contribution, and service. Our support for each other is what makes it all possible.
With love,
Laura
