Talk + Meditation: How to Feel Lived by Love

Feeling isolated, burdened, or unseen? In a world that often feels fragmented and exhausting—with anxiety, stress, and a subtle sense that you’re not quite enough—you may long to feel more supported, connected, and grounded.

So this week I invite you to shift from striving to be loved to being carried by love—not imaginary, but foundational. This kind of living transforms ordinary experiences: the events of your day might stay the same, but how you feel through them—and how they affect you—can change dramatically. In this talk, I share:

• How to identify the felt sense of being carried, not left to push forward alone
• Practices that encourage love to open through you
• How to shift from a top‑down, “must act on it” stance to a more receptive, grounded belonging
• How life’s persistent gifts—evolutionary forces, the natural world, kindness from others, and consciousness itself—are ever-present supports

When enough individuals begin to be lived by love, personal lives transform—and collective change becomes possible. In a world teetering between justice and strife, being lived by love isn’t just helpful—it’s essential .

A Meditation: Calm and Kind

When life feels scattered or tense, it’s powerful to return to simple grounding and heartfelt presence. In this meditation, you’ll settle into your body, release unnecessary anxiety, and open to calm strength and a sense of being safe in the here and now. From this steady foundation, you’ll soften into feelings of warmth, caring, and being cared for—allowing them to ripple through you and sink in deeply.
