Global Joy Summit! Free - with Archbishop Tutu & the Dalai Lama

By

You can join the upcoming Global Joy Summit, a FREE online even running from November 13th to 16th.

This is an amazing opportunity to be inspired by the contagious joy and timely message of the Dalai Lama and the late, great Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and learn from 30+ renowned joy scientists, spiritual teachers, changemakers, and artists.

The lived experiences of these two global icons, and self-described “mischievous brothers,” serve as a profound example of the power of joy in the face of adversity. They teach us that joy is an essential key to meeting the many ordinary and profound challenges we now face, individually and collectively.

The summit will include a free screening of Mission: JOY—the laugh-out-loud funny documentary that shares the magical friendship, practical wisdom, and historic final in-person meeting of the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Tutu—as well as inspiring and practical sessions with 30+ speakers.

The summit will explore:

  • Practices to transform stress, anxiety, grief, depression, despair, isolation, challenging emotions, and difficulty 
  • Practical tools to cultivate well-being, connection, love, compassion, and joy
  • The relationship between joy and sorrow (they’re not opposites)
  • Joy as a “clean fuel” to power transformative action
  • Ubuntu, interconnection, and compassion as essential keys to healing our planet and creating a good future
  • A special keynote with His Holiness the Dalai Lama
  • Live interactive workshops and musical performances 

More than ever, the world needs each of us to tap into the innate love, compassion, and joy that the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Tutu remind us are at the core of our beings.

Come for one session or all and join the celebration and exploration. 

You can sign up for free here.

I hope you enjoy this joy-filled event!

Positive Peace

By
I'll be honest.  The past years, at least for me, it's been hard to believe that peace can prevail.  The categories of verbal strife that exist between persons, levels of discordant perspectives, and the egregious wealth disparities that exist make it difficult for me to believe we're getting better. Blatant ignore-ance (ignoring) of ways to care for others with SARS-CoV-2 are truly hard for me to discern. Noting that, I want to be a caretaker and advocate for peace - and a better world. If you want to read more about actual metrics that mark issues of peace, let me refer you to the Institute for Economic and Peace - an agency I've been fortunate to work with as an Ambassador. In the link I'll share they advocate for peace with these words: Peace is the prerequisite for the survival of humanity in the 21st century. Without peace, it will not be possible to achieve the levels of trust, cooperation and inclusiveness necessary to solve these challenges, let alone empow
