#blackouttuesday doesn't want silence, it wants us to speak up and share how we can make a difference, how to right a wrong, how to create a world where a young black man can jog without fear of being hunted and police officers SERVE AND PROTECT BLACK PEOPLE without brutality and prejudice. Get educated, share resources, your voice, your words matter. . . 🌹"Be roses that grow in cement." - from "The Hate You Give" by Angie Thomas (read/watch this with your teens!) . . #repost @msemilybyrd Blackout square down, raise this up instead. white people: Begin your lessons here - listen - watch - read. #resources #antiracism #work #dismantlewhitesupremacy#blackouttuesdayThis is what a #peacefulprotest looks like. Thank you to our neighbors, friends and families who peacefully marched and chanted for justice in #dublinca today. #thankyou #eastbay #trivalley #yourvoicematters . . Posted @withregram • @teamaureus In the name of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breanna Taylor and all of the black lives lost, we marched loudly to protest against racism, injustice, and police brutality! My girls were ADAMANT about taking action. It was a peaceful and organized protest where the mayor and some amazing speakers in our community talked about solidarity and the work that needs to be done in our city. The Dublin Police Department did a gracious job of escorting the march into a busy intersection where we took a knee for 8 minutes and 40 seconds to honor the victims. #blacklivesmatterBefore my breakfast or morning matcha or any news, I brought my stiff neck, sore left shoulder, and cautious heart to my mat. I literally practiced in the sun to invite the light and the tapas (inner fire) of my practice to clear out worry and concerns. My practice calms and grounds me. I'm grateful to reset and recharge, ready for whatever this day brings, as a peaceful, powerful warrior with the courage to speak and take action for peace and love. Namaste 🙏🏽 . #mondaymotivation #itsanewday #dwellinhope #staystrong #blacklivesmatter #imwithyou #yoga #peacefulwarrior #courage #equanimity #peacefulprotests #gettoyourmat #breathe #handstand #backbend #heartopener #wheelpose #balance #outdooryoga #selfcare #selflove #compassion #peace #love #namaste #fitover55🙏🏽 If you'd like to gather together from home to #meditate, #pray, #move and #breathe together, join me today, Sunday 5-6pmPST #Yin #Yoga.

I stand, kneel, act, speak, and fight with you. #blacklivesmatter #peacefulprotestsplease #sacredsunday"Lord, make me a channel of thy peace, that where there is hatred, I may bring love." #Prayer #StFrancisofAssisi ________________ When I feel despair, nature inspires hope, and peace. In my backyard, colors seemed to emerge overnight, including bright magenta flowers on a bougainvillea I thought was completely dead. I saw an explosion of hydrangea flowers which weren't there yesterday, next to my humble #coronagarden I planted from seed when shelter in place began a few months ago. Our pup brought in cherries from a mysterious source. My hubby discovered a cherry plum tree which in the 6 years we've lived here had not been fruit-bearing. We harvested an abundance of lemons from our tree, one as big as a small pumpkin. And, when I remembered to look up, the sunset sky was painted the warm, bold colors of faith, hope & love. #dwellinhope #grateful #lookup . . Why keep the faith and hope during bleak times of despair and violence? Because it's in our nature to survive and preserve our humanity. Hope energizes us to attend to what matters, to spark others to keep going and to thrive. . I recently asked my husband to toss that dead bougainvillea plant. Without leaves or buds, it seemed to eek out a flower asking "Please don't give up on me, don't throw me away. I might look dead but, I want to bloom and live." It inspired me to consider that my judgment of something or someone unworthy could be flawed. That miraculous flower invited me not to give up on my fellow brothers and sisters, not to view anyone or anything as worthless trash, including how I view myself. My #dharma is to see the light, vitality and love in ALL beings, and to offer compassion and inspiration to discover the light and love within. . But, what about "When it's over, leave. Don't continue watering a dead flower." But, is the flower really dead? #getcuriousnotfurious . My takeaway? To be careful and slow to judge if something is alive or worth my attention and energy. The words I heard were "spiritual triage." To be an instrument of #peace, equipped with #discernment and #compassion. This is what I contemplated during my #meditation. Please comment with your #insight. #namaste 🙏✌💓
