As states begin to reopen from COVID-19 quarantine, whether prematurely or as part of a re-phasing plan, one thing’s for certain: Our relationship with food and dining has changed. But for many who have missed the familiarities of deliciously prepared food and eating in excess, mukbang videos and personalities on YouTube have provided a source of comfort and entertainment during times of uncertainty and anxiety. They’re also oddly relaxing for those who enjoy ASMR-esque eating noises. (Misophonia sufferers need not partake.)

Lately my life has felt pretty chaotic: lots of projects, calls, and creation, along with helping loved ones with things, and preparing to move once again to a new home.
Chaos can be beautiful! And I’m embracing it.
But it can be hard to embrace chaos when we’re feeling scattered, lost, confused, stressed.
And so I practice helping myself to feel grounded.
When we ground ourselves, we can feel a sense of calmness & relaxation with whatever is happening. It’s a “relaxing with what is” from a place of “I’m OK, I got this.
It takes some practice. Let’s talk about how I practice.

Do you ever feel like you’re not doing even a fraction of what you could be doing with your life? I’m guessing we’ve all felt like that since the start of the pandemic. But did you feel like that before—like you have gifts to share and passions to explore, but you just don’t know how, or where to start?
Or maybe you want to believe you have gifts, but you question yourself. You dismiss your potential. And as a result, you hold yourself back.
I suspect most people struggle with these feelings at one point or another.
I felt this way before starting Tiny Buddha—when I worked a series of unfulfilling jobs and settled into a comfortable sense of invisibility in the w…

Like age, service is structured in consciousness. That is, the quality of our service depends on our connection to pure awareness and to shadow awareness. Our stage of awareness determines how and why we serve. It colors our hidden motivations to heed the call or to deny the call. If our ego’s agenda is to […]…

“I used to dislike being sensitive. I thought it made me weak. But take away that single trait, and you take away the very essence of who I am.” ~Caitlin Japa
“You’re making people uncomfortable,” my mother would say. “Stop being so sensitive,” she would then quip.
I have always been sensitive for as long as I can remember. Now I understand there’s a name for it: highly sensitive person (HSP).
The scientific term is sensory processing sensitivity (SPS). As it turns out, 15-20 percent of the population has this trait.
As a highly sensitive person, my nervous system filters less information. I take in more from my environment.
It’s theorized this can often be a survival mechanism set up during early developmental years—particular…
