Video Transcript:
Do you ever feel cynical and overwhelmed? When you read about plastics in the ocean, climate change, species extinction, and political leaders that promote division and hate. How do you stay hopeful?
My name is Farah Nazarali, and what gives me hope is this [holds up a pinecone]. Inside this pinecone is many seeds, and within each seed is an invisible and dormant, and tremendous power. It is the power of life itself. And the same is true of the human heart. But this power needs a few things in order to awaken.
The first is stillness. Slowing down the breath, getting quiet on the inside so we can feel and connect to this power in our hearts.
And the second thing is connection. Connection to our hearts, connection to our bodies, connection to each other, and connection to the earth.
And the third thing is love. A type of love that is alchemical in nature, and knows that miracles are possible.
The world right now needs you. It needs your voice, it needs your skills, it needs your actions, and fundamentally, the world and the earth needs your love.
So when you finish listen listening to this, do one thing inspired by love, and join me in being the change that makes transformation of this world possible.
