I see people frustrated as they feel they have to struggle in the business of the modern world.

I, too, while teaching have so many considerations that at times it seems too much.

One thing I found to help recently is the mountain approach.

I envision before I have to teach or write a challenging email to someone or perhaps plan my schedule that this is useful.

Mountain Approach:

I am a mountain. I am solid and strong. I do not have anything to prove.

Rain rolls off of me. Bustling winds causes by the flurries and movements of the world blow over me. I am calm. I pause, think and if need, pause again.

Then, I act with compassion for myself and others.

We are in this together, and at least one of us is stable to meet a flurrying, flustered world.

Joyfully,

Dan
