Mental Health Week: “Kapwa”

Today’s meditation cultivates a connection to others and community through acts of compassion and kindness for ourselves and those around us. With engaging in this practice, we invite togetherness, known in the Philippines as Kapwa, the idea that the self is not separate from the other. Connection with one another and our community can be protective of our mental health and well-being.
