Compassion is that which has the power to transform suffering.

When we look back at these times in 10 years, what will we remember?

It is unlikely to be the minor controls of what time those untouched by the illness itself went to bed or got up in the morning or whether they exercised every day or not. What will define our memory, will be the acts of compassion and fellowship that moved us. If we have regrets they may well be the times we chose to think only of ourselves and our struggles rather than to think and reach out to others, the times we could have chosen peace over complaints and anger or the times we could have sacrificed our own needs in the name of those who were suffering the most. Perhaps we will remember the moments of stillness in nature and wish we had spent more time just being and listening rather than looking towards our apps to count our steps or to provide sounds other than the beauty, the stillness or the sounds of nature itself to counter the negativity of our own thoughts and fears that rose in the silence.

Many share wonderful tips and ways to cope with Lockdown and the Virus, for us it is encompassed in that one word : Compassion.

If we all could :

Take Personal Responsibility for our own Thoughts, Words & Actions.
Meditate or Be in Nature and allow ourselves to connect to beauty, stillness, harmony.
Every day choose a selfless act of compassion for someone else.

We would see a wave of Compassion move through the world that would alleviate the impact of the virus and bring wide - ranging positive change in our own lives, organisations, communities and the world.

It is that simple, and it starts with ourselves.

First it is important to build our own harmony and natural resilience to overcome the challenges that we all face and to empower ourselves with threefold well-being: Body, Mind & Soul to step across the bridge into a more enlightened and enlightening way of life.
