Meditation As Self Care

As we move through the world doing our good work, tending relationships, being in service to our communities, and developing our purpose and skills, for many of us exhaustion and overwhelm are close companions. The concept of "self care" began in activist communities and spread to the general culture as the need deepened for real ways to restore wellbeing amid everything we're managing. This Buddhist talk explores the practice of meditation in stillness as an important form of self care, both for ourselves and to support social engagement.
