Free Online Collective Trauma Summit (Starts 9/22)

When I started Tiny Buddha, one of my main goals was to help us all heal the traumas that haunt us and hold us back in life. In much the same way that our personal traumas hinder us each individually, our collective trauma adversely affects the whole world. And healing that trauma is critical for the future of humanity and the planet.

If, like me, you want to do your part to help us all heal the wounds that are passed down through generations, I highly recommend checking out the Collective Trauma Summit, a free, 10-day online event starting on Tuesday, September 22nd.

This powerful summit will bring together over 45 experts on the topic of collective healing including leading psychotherapists, visionaries, researchers, performers, poets, and peacemakers in the world.

With panel discussions, guided meditations, and performances by acclaimed poets and musicians, the Collective Trauma Summit will surely help us find strength and healing through this intense period of massive upheaval and change.

  • How personal and collective trauma are intimately linked
  • How intergenerational and ancestral trauma operates in individuals and family lineages
  • The triggering of racial and cultural trauma and what we can do to shift and transform it for real change
  • Why healing collective trauma is critical for the future of our planet
  • What we can do to address and resolve war and long-standing conflicts
  • What we can learn from the recent health care and pandemic crisis

Some of the featured experts include:

  • Daniel J. Siegel, MD – Bestselling Author, Founder of the Mindsight Institute

  • Stephen W. Porges – Founding Director of the Traumatic Stress Research Consortium, Indiana University
  • Charles Eisenstein – Speaker and Author
  • Ruth King – Founder of Mindful of Race Institute

Collective trauma affects every one of us, but not everyone will acknowledge and address it—which is why people like us need to come together with open hearts and minds to explore how we can end needless suffering and heal the wounds that carry through generations.

20 Powerful Self-Care Quotes to Help You Feel and Be Your Best

Image
Hi friends! I decided over this long holiday weekend to give myself a break for some much-needed self-care, which I imagine we could all use right now. We’ve all been pushed, stretched, and challenged this year. We’ve all given our all, done our best, and perhaps wondered at times if it was good enough. That’s the thing about difficult times—we often make them so much harder by expecting a lot from ourselves, pushing ourselves, and beating ourselves up when we fall short. We expect ourselves to always be happy. Or productive. Or confident. Or present. Or there for other people. We expect ourselves to always be at the top of the game even if we sometimes put ourselves at the bottom of our priority list. But we can’t possibly be all of these things all the time, because we’re not perfect, we’re human. And to be human is to be messy, inconsistent, and full of contradictions. To have days when we knock it out of the park and days when we stare at the park from our window. In pajamas. ...

Here are nine ways to improve your emotional regulation skills: Choose your mantra. ☯ Decide what you will say to yourself the next time your frustration bubbles up to the surface. Have one or two short mantras ready. Talk with friends. 🗣 Friends are support systems. A good talk can dissipate stress, make you feel understood and give you a good outlet to vent.  “Find your tribe or community where you can share challenges, laughs and strategize on how to solve problems you have in common,” Kris says. Practice self-compassion. 💝 How often do you give yourself a soft place to land in your mind? Self-compassion is the practice of treating yourself as you would a best friend, and when you are kinder to yourself, you are kinder to others. Exercise and eat nutritiously. 🏅🥗 Take care of your body and your mind will follow. Write in a journal. ✍ Give your thoughts and feelings a safe place to come out. Practice mindfulness meditation. 🌅 Practice a nonjudgmental stance to things you are...

12 basic rules to find love

12 basic rules to find love Just because the whole world seems to obsess about romance during one day in the middle of February, doesn't mean you have to. For happy singles, it's a good excuse to eat chocolate. But if Valentine's Day has you thinking about finding love, the holiday could be a good motivation to start. Our experts offered these 12 tips to boost your chances: 1. The ‘You’ll find love when you’re not looking’ approach may be wrong. That’s like saying, “You’ll find a job when you’re least looking for it,” said Pepper Schwartz, a relationship expert and sociology professor at the University of Washington. It’s possible, but rarely happens. “For the most part, people who wait for a job are unemployed,” she added. “For me, it’s just an excuse for being scared to go and put the effort in. Yes, it happens, but no, it’s not a good strategy.” Schwartz does agree with the underlying sentiment of that saying: Don’t be desperate. Put the effort in to find someone, but do...
