In this podcast we discuss these connections and explore through a short exer...

Across the world, people are going crazy staying inside their homes. People want to go out and live “normally” again, even if for just five minutes. Who can blame them? It is unnatural for us to stay indoors for so long, but the fact is, we have ALL been called to stay home. It is our duty as a caring citizen to think about the people around us in our communities. The health of the world is at stake, and we must all step up and wor...
