Our collective human psyche has for a long time been impacted by the happenings of the world, from politics to war and the economy. 


In this week’s episode, Niall sits down to talk about just how much suffering we have witnessed in society and how that can leave us feeling helpless. Speaking about the work of Thich Nhat Hanh, whose work on non-violence came from the front lines of the Vietnam war, Niall explores the fear and power driving the chaos and the deep spiritual crisis it is causing in society. He shares how Thich Nhat Hanh’s work can be used as a beacon of hope in these difficult times and how our personal choice to nourish life, and not destroy it, can help us feel empowered as a collective again. Niall also leads us in a Metta meditation to send peace during global turmoil.
