Journaling for perspective

New challenges appeared this week, but so did Bonnie Duran’s interview on the Ten Percent Happier podcast. Duran studies the intersections between Buddhism and Indigenous wisdom. She’s an Indigenous scholar and director of the Center for Indigenous Health Research at the University of Washington.

Hearing her talk about the fact we’re all nature and within nature nothing’s perfect, permanent or personal helped me put the week’s events into perspective.

It really is all how we react to things, isn’t it?

How would you apply the idea of nothing’s perfect, permanent or personal to what’s going on in your life? When you put it that way, does anything shift for you?

Those are some good questions to ponder and journal on! I’ll be journaling with you.

With kindness,

Suzanne
