Thank you so much for all the succinct practices on this summit, Rick. May you continue to be the soothing, grounding and kindly inspiration for common humanity/planet Earth, as evident in your online Foundations of Wellbeing programme {and other resources).
Providing compassion to one gives compassion to the self. Thank you.

It’s a real privilege for me that you teach me all this skills,i learned how to act positively with awareness tone and real presence of good intentions.Jean Paul Sartre said that the gehenne is the others ;i noticed that we hold a paradise when we act with compassion.

Even taking the time to focus on my friend’s sorrows with benevolence makes me feel like I did something to help.

Me siento muy agradecida por este maravilloso viaje que trato de hacer, guiada por Mindfuleducationsummit. Y digo que trato, porque mi lengua natal es el español y entonces al escucharlo en inglés (audios) es muy poco lo que logro entender. ¡Qué posibilidad habría de que tuvieran subtítulos en español?. Ha despertado en mí gran interés la práctica de la compasión y la autocompasión. Muchas gracias.
