We are the little machine. You wouldn't blame that little machine for not being able to move that boat, even if it tries its best. So why, if we compare this to your life, are you so hard on yourself when you are facing soooo much! Can this image help you see that you are doing the best that you can? That it may take more than just you? It may take therapy, a formal and informal support system, medical support, medication, books, podcasts, etc. before you see the results you want. As always, this is a gentle reminder to be compassionate with yourself and to stop being so hard on yourself when you are doing the best you can! -Heather

This resonates with me. These "little things" add up for women.

Oprah and Deepak Chopra's 21 day meditation is available again. A great goal...20 minutes a day for 21 days.

I invite you to spend a few minutes with me so we can learn and grow together. #whitefragility #sloths #nature #whiteprivilege ... #robindiangelo #peggymcintosh #foreverlearning See more

A good day to pick up this read. When a white man killing many asian women can be dismissed as him having "a bad day", and a person of colour can be killed by police officers for walking on the street doing absolutely nothing wrong. What year is this? How can this still be happening? My heart goes out to everyone who is impacted by the continued messages that some lives mean more than others. I can't imagine how heavy it is hearing this day in and day out. #whitefragility #racism #blacklivesmatter #robindiangelo
