There’s only so much you can do in a week – or, according to Oliver Burkeman, in the roughly 4,000 weeks the average human lives. Oliver is a journalist and author of the books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, Meditations for Mortals, and the newsletter “The Imperfectionist.” Chris and Oliver discuss the paradox of why change can only occur once we accept that we might not be able to change. Oliver also shares how life’s mishaps can become our most treasured memories and why sharing your imperfections is an act of generosity.

"Universal design is the process of creating products that are accessible to people with a wide range of abilities, disabilities, and other characteristics. Universally designed products accommodate individual preferences and abilities; communicate necessary information effectively (regardless of ambient conditions or the user's sensory abilities); and can be approached, reached, manipulated, and used regardless of the individual's body size, posture, or mobility. Application of universal design principles minimizes the need for assistive technology, results in products compatible with assistive technology, and makes products more usable by everyone, not just people with disabilities." You can read more about it at the link below: -https://www.washington.edu/doit/what-universal-design-0 As we move into this episode, listen to Natasha and I explore the way we use the Principles of Universal Design to help us build a culture of belonging and social emotional inclusion for a classroom in Ferguson, Missouri.

You can read more about Jenna at https://jennalittle.com In this podcast we discuss: -The the history, ritual and culture of grief -Culture+Grief -How Jenna uses yoga in her healing circles to process grief -Strategies to process grief A Commentary from Julie Johnson: I reference the book Yoga for Grief+Loss by Karla Herlbert in the podcast. At the time of recording, I couldn't remember the name of the author. You can purchase the book here . It's a wonderful resource for anyone that would love to learn about how the 8 Limbs of Yoga can support their grief journey. I especially love the ritual and meditations that Karla writes. **CORRECTION** The difference between Romanian and Romani people: In this episode I reference the influx of Romanian and Romini humans that have appeared in the Integrate community since the capitol insurrection and our addressing of antisemitism. In the podcast, I say "Romanian people" and also want to identify there is a difference between Romini +Romanian ethnicities. Romini= Roma are originally from northern India and that they migrated out of the area sometime between 800-950 AD. Romani, the Rom language, is descended from Sanskrit and closely related to Hindi. Today Romani exists in many dialects, reflecting the paths of Rom dispersion. Some Rom groups, however, do not presently communicate in Romani, although it is likely that they did at an earlier time. Roma have always been bilingual and in many cases are multilingual. In the southern Balkans, Roma speak Romani plus the local south Slavic language or Turkish, Albanian or Greek. Read more from this distinction here: https://www.culturalsurvival.org/publications/cultural-survival-quarterly/persecution-and-politicization-roma-gypsies-eastern-europe Romanian=people from Romania descend from The Baltics and speak the Romanian language, which is a different culture and ethnicity then the *Romini* This nuance (our word for 2021) is extremely important to distinguish. Listen to my intro for further clarity on this as well. Sponsorships: off for this epis…
