Mindfulness for Dealing with World Events
Here are some Ten Percent Happier resources you can check out if you're working with stress and difficult emotions surrounding world events.
The Ten Percent Happier podcast released an episode on March 14, 2022 to help people understand their reactions and feelings around the war in Ukraine and how meditation might help you be resilient and act skillfully. Find it in the app or tap here: #427: How Do I Meditate When There’s a War Going On? | Claude AnShin Thomas. We recently published this newsletter article, Praying for Ukraine, and Oren Jay Sofer recorded a new meditation which we hope will help. It's Compassion Amidst World Conflict.
