Next Time You're Suffering, Ask Yourself This Question | Caverly Morgan

Next Time You're Suffering, Ask Yourself This Question | Caverly Morgan

The highest form of self compassion (is seeing there's no self in the first place).

Caverly Morgan is a meditation teacher who blends the original spirit of Zen with a modern nondual approach, drawing from her eight years of training in a silent Zen monastery. She's authored two books—The Heart of Who We Are: Realizing Freedom Together and A Kids Book About Mindfulness. Caverly is also the Founder and Lead Contemplative of two nonprofits—Peace in Schools, creating the first U.S. semester-long credited mindfulness course in high schools, and Realizing Freedom Together, dedicated to making practices that lead to liberation for all, accessible to all.
