Our latest Tumblr remembers influential Deep Ecologist & Buddhist Joanna Macy who died a month ago. We link her 'Climate Crisis as a Spiritual Path' talk from a 2021 interview, to help us better sense how we can live our lives fully with inner peace & courage (even joy) as the world destroys itself

We're again offering the odd meditation, usually via #ambient soundbaths. Here's a short one recorded in #MountTamalpaisStatePark in Marin - also where the photo was taken, all on a drizzly morning. To listen visit our Tumblr tinyurl.com/2aek4m3u or Dropbox at tinyurl.com/3kcwkb2x

Good Morning.
Reminder, you are living being and are more than what you can produce or provide.

Check your Internalized Capitalism and bring rest and levity back to your life.
And Stop trying to monetize every hobby. 👀

A slide with cartoons as bullet points.
The title says
White Supremacy Culture Bonus Round:
Internalized Capitalism

On the left the four pieces of information going down read
Self-worth is tied to productivity /work (Next to a black woman with multiple arms juggling tasks sitting in front of a laptop computer)
Work/ productivity before Health (Next to a medical chart and stethoscope)
Staying busy to avoid other needs (Next to a person at a desk anxious with a pile of papers and typing on a computer the clock behind them displaying a late hour)
Feeling lazy when sick / taking time off (next to a person with a cold compress sitting in bed holding a cup of tea)

On the right side:
Feeling guilt when resting/ not “doing” (next to a woman in an armchair with her legs draped over an arm while she is reading with a stack of books on the floor.)
Belief that hard work = happiness (next to a person with a fist raised in success surrounded by gold starts)
Activities must be profitable to be worthwhile (next to a person with long hair sitting on a throne of money)

The sides of the slide are bordered by a column gold coins with dollar signs on them

Internalized ableism and internalized capitalism is really insidious and caustic. But it’s more of a shared struggle than we can sometimes see.

Since the mid 90s, researchers and beekeepers have seen mite resistance in wild and domestic bee populations. More recently, scientists have linked it to a set of behaviors collectively known as Varroa Sensitive Hygiene.

Honey Bees Learn to Fight Deadly Varroa Mites

In the face of colony collapse, some beekeepers are foregoing insecticides and opting instead to breed bees with mite-resistant behaviors.

When one meditates the goal is to facilitate brainwaves like alpha, theta, gamma etc.

Experienced Buddhist monks can hit insane gamma level that scientists once though to be impossible.

The monks proved them wrong. 😍
