We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

New Research: 1) Most family caregivers of disabled children do not complete an on-line mindfulness course, even with additional peer support, although completers benefit, 2) Adjunctive MBCT improves OCD better than usual care alone. and baseline functional connectivity predicts clinical outcome.

I can't tell you how many interviews I've done where I've been asked: If Trump's policies are so problematic, why are U.S. stocks rising so rapidly.

A bit of international context illustrates the real issue here.

U.S. stocks have dramatically underperformed other advanced economies.

Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Does the Speaker of the House know what's going on in the country?

It's not clear that he does, as Mike Johnson's communication strategy seems to rely heavily on being unaware.

When faced with questions he should be able to answer, he has a reliable response: "I don't know."

New Mindfulness Research: 1) MBSR reduces older adult loneliness no more than an active relaxation control; 2) A school-based mindfulness program in Finland reduces students stress a small amount compared to an active control, but not compared to a no-treatment control. #mindfulness
