An old teaching story: a young man begs a teacher, "Show me what you've found." The teacher walks him into a river and holds him under. Up he bursts. "What did you want down there?" "Air. Only air." "Want it like that." What do you want that much? Class 8pm CT. Link in bio.

A sage by a river watched two cranes in love. An arrow flew. One fell. What came out of him wasn't a curse. It came out in rhythm. India remembers it as the first poem. Grief for a stranger, turned into something beautiful. Whose pain moved you lately? Link in bio.

Dear Worry, I know you're trying to protect me. You show up at 3am as a tight chest and a list. Thank you. I've got this one. You can sit in the back seat, but you don't get to drive. Love, me Free classes, any time zone. Link in bio.

Spot the difference: two family dinners, same table, same food. In one, everyone's in a different room in their heads. In the other, someone asked "best part of your day?" I've sat at both. Today, I'm aiming for the second. Free classes, any time zone. Link in bio.

Me at 9pm: "I'm FINE." Also me: replaying one email for 40 minutes. What helps: say the feeling out loud. "This is worry." In a UCLA brain study, labeling a feeling turned down the brain's alarm response. Name it. Then breathe. Free classes. Link in bio.
