• Work from home tips — Cognitive neuroscientist and UC Berkeley professor Dr. Sahar Yousef helps us all find motivation, be more productive, get work done, and stay sane as we all work and study remotely. Tips include eliminating distractions and creating a designated workspace (even if it’s just a work tablecloth).
• Meditation tips | Understanding Dark Thoughts – Sometimes thoughts arise that we might not like. They could be angry, exciting or just plain inappropriate. Meditation teaches us to sit with our thoughts, whatever they are. And in doing so we become more acceptant of ourselves, and maybe of others too.
• Reset: De-compress your body and mind – With schools closed, many of us working from home, and social distancing becoming part of our lives, it can feel like work, family time, and relaxing all blur together. This meditation encourages us to pause and reset between tasks, helping you feel more present and better able to enjoy whatever comes next.
• Sleepcast: Cat Marina – At night, the peaceful Cat Marina comes to life — and it’s the purrfect place to meet some feline friends. Sleepcasts use sound and visualization to create a peaceful atmosphere for restful sleep. Each one begins with a short wind down, then you’re taken on a relaxing journey through a dreamy landscape.​
