We are in a mental health crisis right now, so more people are struggling and may be more open to accessing services. It’s much easier to connect from your living room.

Long time coming.

For those of us who have been graced with long life, the attainment of self-love could be our last challenge to enlightenment.

"You know, sometimes in medicine and public health, there's a tendency to browbeat or to shame or to sort of throw a bunch of statistics on the wall and to ignore normal human inclinations, behaviors, wants, needs. I don't think that's going to work here. I think we need to hold that there's a loss that we are facing together the obvious health loss and the disaster that we've seen, but also those day-to-day losses of normal life, normal year-round sequences of events and things that we hold so dearly. So we name it, we mourn it, and then we say, look, this looks like a transient phenomenon. There is a light at the end of the tunnel."

"I can’t change who I am or the challenges I’ve had to face. What I can do is choose who and what to accept into my life to make it an environment where I want to live and even thrive."

"It’s important to know how policymakers at all levels of government impact mental health services in your community."

Thank you to my therapist. I am a different man than I was two years ago. I love you. You have changed my life in many ways. Therapy should be free in this country.’’

"The biggest embrace of love you will ever make is to embrace yourself completely. Then you will realize you've just embraced the whole universe, and everything and everybody in it." Adyashanti
