  • Happiness Break: Sketching Serenity, With Chris Murchison
    2024/10/31

    A guided drawing meditation to help you break out of stale thought patterns and maybe even enter a state of flow. No talent required.

    How to Do This Practice:

    1. Grab a piece of paper and something to draw with.
    2. Find a comfortable place and start by taking some deep, mindful breaths
    3. Take a few moments to take in your environment. What colors, shapes, and objects do you see?
    4. Set a timer and for the next two minutes, draw something that caught your attention. Don’t worry about how it looks and try to stay in the moment.
    5. Once time is up, spend a moment appreciating what you drew. Think about the impact of slowing down and doing something fun has had on your day.

    Today’s Happiness Break host:

  • How Rituals Help Us Process Grief
    2024/10/24

    We explore Día de los Muertos—Day of the Dead—as a ritual that nurtures community, imbues loss with meaning, and helps us process grief while also connecting through shared joy.

    Summary: We investigate how Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, rituals strengthen family ties and cultural identity, and learn about its evolution from a 3,000 year old practice to a global celebration. We look at key elements like the ofrenda and explore how commercialization—like Mattel’s Day of the Dead Barbie—raises questions about balancing tradition with modern influences.

    Guest: Michelle Telléz is an Associate Professor in Mexican-American studies at Arizona State University.
