“My appeal to every caregiver would be to love yourself. Express the same compassion to yourself, as you would for those you care for. And look in the mirror and ask yourself: ‘Are you happy?’ ‘Are you thriving?’ And if not, why is that? The Foundation Course is news to use! It is the antidote to so many of our day-to-day challenges.”

“People’s minds tend to just race — our minds go over and over on these tracks worrying about things in the past and the future. When we get consumed by fear and worry, meditation helps you to just slow everything down. This course gives you the tools to help you let go of that kind of repetitive negative thinking.
