A Meditation for Stillness
During the 2020 election, I recorded an episode with Marissi Ingrasci, a teacher and coach from the Hoffman Process. The episode featured a practice called a Quadrinity Check, also known as a Quad Check, that holds space for us to check in with the five aspects of our being - Body, Emotional Self, Intellect, Spiritual Self, and Spirit Guide. With so much going on at the time, I wanted the episode to feel like a moment of respite and a helpful tool that my community could go back to at any time of grief or anxiety. In the past two weeks, it's been something I've come back to often while watching the devastating events unfold in the Middle East. I hope that this episode gives you a sense of calm amid the chaos, and serves as a reminder to take care of ourselves so we can best take care of our communities. The Hoffman Quadrinity Process®, founded by Bob Hoffman in 1967, is a week-long residential and personal growth retreat that helps participants identify negative behaviors, moods, and ways of thinking that developed unconsciously and were conditioned in childhood.

How To Cultivate Your Personal Style By Shopping Vintage
Rachel Tabb has had good style since middle school, which is something I definitely can't say for myself. She's always looked like a supermodel straight out of the 90s with a perfectly polished and minimalist wardrobe that would give Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy a run for her money.
