This guided meditation from Dr. Mark Bertin reminds us that we don’t have to pretend everything is fine or be calm all the time. Instead, being mindful in difficult times can look like carving out a moment to settle before we decide what comes next. This is a walking meditation that supports us in cultivating a balanced perspective. While we accept what we can’t change right now, we can also choose our next steps from a place of compassion and wisdom. Stay curious, stay inspired.
