Great to see this reel on my past work with MJ, Kobe, Shaq & others put together by SEI. 🙏🏾We worked on far more than meditation & mindfulness in our years together; we worked on what I now call Unlocking and having a “Way of Being”, which the greats in any area of life develop.

Last night, we wrapped up my Fall 2025 Study Group and our Getting Comfortable Being Uncomfortable Challenge with a powerful session full of brave shares and insight. It was a true celebration of this sangha we've been building since 2019. I'm so grateful to all of you who are part of it!

As we wrap up my Fall Study Group this week, working on “Getting Comfortable Being Uncomfortable”, this powerful quote comes to mind.

It’s about that thing that frightens us most. Here’s Marianne Williamson on the shift from fear to love. Full quote here: www.instagram.com/p/DRNTsolkgA...

Feeling Fatigue or Sluggish? Effort Creates Energy! In my latest “At Home”, I talk about the fatigue I've been dealing with and how I can say “Yes!” to it. The answer might not be what you expect.

It’s a place I call the Eye of the Hurricane. You can go there any time. It’s just a breath away…

Seeing everyone’s photos of the Northern Lights this week reminds me of this great Alan Watts quote:

In my latest “At Home” short, I talk about the critical importance of our mindset in shaping our experiences. Are you feeding the love wolf — from the famous Cherokee Tale of Two Wolves — through practices that focus your mind on positive thoughts and emotions? youtu.be/iV1SqyJlOsU

My question of the day: what’s possible in this moment? And how do we get that?

What’s possible for you?

A powerful quote from Bruce Lee:

“To me, ultimately, martial art means honestly expressing yourself. It’s very difficult to do. It is easy for me to put on a show and be cocky... or I can show you some really fancy movement. But to express oneself honestly... that, my friend, is very hard to do.”

Here’s my intention for the day. What’s yours???

NEW: how do we go to the next level of getting uncomfortable with the unknown? In my latest “At Home”, I talk about Embodied Awareness as a tool to help us find steadiness, stability, and more clarity as we deal with life’s inevitable ups and downs.

On this Halloween, it’s all about LOVE! I thought I’d share this reminder from my second book, Unlocked:

"To make a conscious connection with the greatness within, we have to cultivate an openness and a willingness to allow LOVE to move in us and through us.”

Throwback Thursday- I recently came across this Fox Sports clip from the 1990’s when a young me was working with the Chicago Bulls. I’m not sure what the fan behind me was thinking… but it was fun to see this again.

Great advice from the legendary coach John Wooden: "Apply yourself every day to just becoming a little bit better."

What does that “little bit” look like for you?

A powerful quote that suggests that true knowledge is demonstrated through action, care of the great Nyanaponika Thera from his classic book “The Heart of Buddhist Meditation: The Buddha’s Way of Mindfulness.”

“If one knows but does not act accordingly, one knows imperfectly.”

Each day, try to find some pockets of stillness. I found some this morning at the ocean. Make that a practice, wherever you are.
