    Thank you so much Keira. Compassion shines through you. It is not always easy to accept our weaknesses but you have given me tools to work with… and I shall.

    Your voice is very soothing and supports opening to self-compassion – The visual of the basement and the living room helped me put difficult emotions into perspective. Thank you. I’m a musician and court reporter in New Orleans, Louisiana

      Hello Kaira , I appreciate a lot your
      four -step method. I think one of the most difficult issues we have to deal with is accepting our weakness as a part of us .

    Kairas tone is a bit low too plus the volume if she can try and speak a little louder in to the microfone

    Thank you for your wise and insiteful training in mindfulness. I practised some of what you taught today after watching your video and found it very helpful. Life can be challenging, but as you say you find your true self, or the beauty of the lotus flower in the mud. I have read some of the Dalai Lama’s books and recognise that life is suffering, and the learning is how you choose to respond to it. My biggest challenge currently is to recognise the importance of self care amongst it. Thanks again. Rebecca

    Dear Kaira,
    Thank you so much. Your messages was very soothing, consoling, and regaining the hope to live in these difficult times irrespective of ones status. This difficult time too shall be pass-by. I will definitely follow your four steps and SIDS “kuen-Zhuhai”. Let us be mindful and remain mindful.

I have learnt so much today essentially that all our emotions are our friends and it’s okay to lean towards them .Really useful practical tools as well . Thank you so much Kaira and the people who asked questions for sharing your experiences so openly for us to learn and connect
