Stand By Me (ukulele) In times of struggle, we have to stand by each other, feed each other when we’re hungry, comfort each other when we’re struggling, stand up for each other when others are targeted, and resist hatred and oppression with our love. #standbyme #naturalacoustics #ukulelecover #cover

Just Be. Flute meditation from a really cool converted barn in Iowa with Buddhist wisdom on self care from Thich Nhat Hanh. You don’t have to be doing something all the time. It’s okay to “just be”. If we don’t take that time, life often has a way of forcing us to. #spirituality #buddhism #selfcare

When I created this video for a project on Simpson Housing a few years ago, I had no idea things would get this bad, but here we are. Allowing SNAP recipients to go hungry, rounding up people based on race with no due process, and bullying trans kids are incompatible with the teachings of the Bible.

"To be wild is not to be crazy or psychotic. True wildness is a love of nature, a delight in silence, a voice free to say spontaneous things, and an exuberant curiosity in the face of the unknown."

On Indigenous Peoples Day, I honor those who cared for this land first. I’m mindful every day that this instrument I play comes from indigenous people. It’s been a huge part of my journey as a person who uses music to heal, and as a person who found healing when I needed it from this instrument.

Somehow we must keep hope alive --a hope that we can find a way to educate all, alleviate poverty, assuage anger, and live in harmony with the environment, with animals,
and with each other.
- Jane Goodall, 1934-2025 a Native American style flute music meditation with autumn wildflowers 🌼

The words of Jane Goodall: "You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you.
What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” Rest In Peace Jane Goodall. In gratitude. #janegoodall #nature #interconnectedness
