Lama Rod Owens: Radical Self-Care

Lama Rod Owens, author, activist, and authorized Lama in the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism, invites us to a radical self-care, based not on cutting ourselves off from the world, but rather on engaging with it fully. We do this through the recognition and practice of spaciousness, first by waking up to the space between thoughts within our own minds, and then offering this spaciousness to others.
