    Key Topics Discussed

    • Michelle’s Tip: Embrace gratitude for nature. By appreciating simple, constant elements—like the sunrise, seasons, and even small wonders like rocks or leaves—we can find calm in the midst of uncertainty.
    • Cinthia’s Tip: Cultivate connection through common ground. Find three things you have in common with people, even those with opposing views, to dissolve fear and build bridges. Cinthia shares her approach of identifying shared values, even with people she may disagree with.

    • Michelle’s Tip: Maintain peace by practicing courtesy and kindness. Small acts like saying “please” and “thank you” can help set a peaceful tone during tense times.
    • Cinthia’s Tip: Peace is an active practice. Inspired by martial arts philosophy, she discusses promoting kindness and non-aggression as ways to avoid conflict, serve others, and create a positive impact.

    1. Prayer and Intention Setting

    • Michelle’s Practice: Building or reviving a home altar as a symbol of unity and connection, inspired by seasonal observances like Día de los Muertos. She places a circle of stones to signify unity.
    • Cinthia’s Practice: Cinthia shares a powerful intention-setting prayer taught by her “Swami Mommy,” Connie. This prayer focuses on divine light, love, compassion, and protection for self and others, helping center intentions and support healing on a larger scale.
