I feel like I explained a lot to her but didn't give her any tools to really help the situation.
... I just have some sadness that I don't have any answers.
While I was meditating this morning, I did see a little Moth, crawling around the inside of our big picture window for the whole 20 minutes. And I did wish it would use it's wings to fly away from the glass so it might be able to find it's way outside. I thought: How cliche to see a beautiful winged creature trapped against the flat world of glass and wonder if it even knows that there is a whole 3D world, and aren't we like that too?
I think that there are tools to help one be more accepting of peers where they are, more influential to allow peers to open up and share their real strengths, and more connected to one's internal/spiritual strength. I think that those tools are conscious breathing.
A book I like on this is -
