Forgiveness isn’t a straight line.

Fear, anger, sadness, even numbness can all show up — and that’s okay. Each emotion is a teacher, not a barrier. Growth comes from befriending what we resist — with compassion and courage.

As you move through this journey, gratitude and compassion become your anchors. They don’t erase pain, but they create bridges to softness and release. Try this: name one small thing you often take for granted and notice how acknowledging it opens your heart.

Forgiveness also means clarity. It’s not about staying in harmful situations — it’s about honoring both softness and strength, building healthy boundaries, and practicing compassion without self-abandonment.

When you commit to forgiveness, you gain:
✅ Freedom from emotional burdens
✅ Clarity and renewed purpose
✅ Tools to meet fear, anger, sadness, and numbness
✅ Connection and community support
✅ Sustainable heart practices

Forgiveness isn’t about condoning harm, forgetting, or bypassing difficult emotions. It’s a courageous practice of releasing what no longer serves us and cultivating freedom of heart.

Why does this matter? Because holding onto resentment or anger costs us in clarity, energy, and peace. It weighs heavy on our hearts and relationships.

When we cling to resentment, we often pay the price through:
• Emotional drain — stuck in rumination
• Physical stress — tension, low immunity, constant stress response
• Relationship strain — when we can’t let go, trust and connection suffer

Forgiveness can free us from these burdens. But it begins with ourselves. Shame, guilt, and self-judgment often block our ability to extend grace to others.

Try this today: place a hand on your heart, breathe deeply, and say to yourself: “I love you.”

How does that feel? Whether it comes easily or feels challenging, it reflects the very work you’re ready to embark on. This is where the journey of forgiveness begins.

Does forgiveness feel like a "should" to you?

Forgiving someone can seem like something you should do, but not something you want to do. Often, that's because we don't want to condone what someone did, and we think forgiving them means saying it's ok that it happened. So, we hold onto resentment and anger - and it hurts!

What if you could let go of the pain without feeling like you're condoning the person who caused it? Suddenly, forgiveness stops being a "should" and starts being a key to more energy, clarity, and peace.

Come explore forgiveness this week with one of our teachers , .mindfulness, , , , or .

Many of our teachers will be focusing their classes on it this week - and next Thursday, we'll have a deeper conversation that we'd love for you to join. Comment FORGIVE below for a link to register.

We're entering a new season - can you feel it?

With the fall equinox on Monday, we're officially entering autumn. During this time of year, there's a natural impulse to slow down, reflect, and shed what's no longer serving us.

But somehow, none of the big forces in your life got that message - whether that's your job, your kids' schools and sports, the consumer economy - they're all going full speed ahead!

You need to carve out little pockets of time to honor the changing of the seasons, and the slower pace, reflection, and shedding that's a natural part of the fall. T

The good news is, we have lots of those little pockets for you! Our live online meditation classes are happening six days a week - and you can always watch the recording later, too. Join one of our teachers , .mindfulness, , , , or for a class this week and embrace this new season in community.

Some habits shape the rest of your day.
Meditation is one of them.

Start your morning with 30 minutes of stillness and notice how it:
☀ Sets a calmer tone
☀ Makes space between you and your to-do list
☀ Helps you respond instead of react

One class can shift your day. A habit can shift your life.
Try one. Then come back again (and again). Class packs and memberships
make it easy to keep showing up.

There's so much to feel that it can be overwhelming.

With everything going on in the world, on top of everything going on in your personal life, the range of emotions can be large and intense. Having a safe space where you can feel all the feels is so essential!

When you meditate, you come face to face with whatever emotions and thoughts are swirling around inside you - and it can seem scary to voluntarily do that, rather than numbing out or stuffing your feelings down.

But when you meditate in a safe space, with the support of a teacher and a group, you give yourself the opportunity to really feel whatever needs to be felt, let it move through you, and let it go.

Join one of our teachers , .mindfulness, , , , or for a live online meditation class this week and give yourself the compassion and care you need, in the safe container created by our community.

When was the last time you celebrated something that went well?

Celebration is like gratitude: the more you do it, the more you notice things to celebrate!

Often we skip over celebrating something that's gone well. We move on to the next thing we're tackling - or we believe that feeling good isn't ok when there's so much pain and suffering in the world.

But when you stop and allow yourself to feel the joy, relief, and delight of celebration, it doesn't mean you ignore things that need your attention: it creates an opening for more of those feelings in your life, balancing out the difficult challenges and motivating you to keep going.

Meditation is one way to help yourself pause and savor the good stuff - and the effect is amplified when you do it with a group! Join one of our teachers , .mindfulness, , , , or for a live online meditation class this week and let our community help you balance the tough stuff with celebration.

Thinking about trying meditation? Don’t just take our word for it — ☝️ as one of our previous beginners says, “there’s no bad way to do it” — just start!

Our Beginner Meditation Series makes it simple to get started — with bite-sized classes designed for busy, real-life humans.

👉 Mondays: Learn a new technique
👉 Thursdays: Practice it together

If you want a little extra support — bring a friend! Studies show that it’s easier to stick with it when you bring a friend. Starting something new side-by-side means:
✔️ You’ll both show up more consistently
✔️ You’ll encourage each other when motivation dips
✔️ You’ll celebrate your progress together

Classes start September 8th and space is limited. Save your spots together and comment BEGINNER below to get the registration link DM’d straight to you. Don’t forget to tag your meditation buddy so you can start the journey together! 👇
