Waylon gets wowed by Scott Berman of Sky Cave Retreats. Just…watch…it’s unique (understatement) and inspiring and earthy and healing. “There’s this period of novelty where it’s just like, ‘Wow, this is amazing. I don’t have to do anything. Nothing’s bothering me.’ And that might last for like the day, or it might last for a minute. Typically it doesn’t last for the whole day, but some people get by enjoying the novelty for the day. Right? And that’s what happens for everybody. No matter how well

Mindful Mondays, with Waylon Lewis: On the importance of pausing and celebrating our lives. “Sometimes, often all we have to do is pause and really look for two seconds. Maybe…three. And, as Buddhists love to say, nothing happens. When nothing happens, we start being present with our world, and our life. We start breathing again.. We start smiling, and feeling our sadness, and feeling brave enough to feel—to be present in our own life.” ~ Waylon Lewis Read the accompanying article on Elephant

2023/06/26

I’m here to talk about writing today. The virtue of writing. We need to open the prison door and let writing out of just being for this limited thing that is called writers. Writing is for anyone with a voice. And that’s you, and me. Some people will always tell us we aren’t good enough, smart enough, knowledgeable enough. That’s their problem. Writing is getting to know our experience—and in so doing—turning it into wisdom that is helpful to self and others. That’s what we practice in Elephant

I did not have ‘Living Brave.’ I didn’t have my brand. I just had words and experiences and emotions that I wanted to share through writing. Writing was a vessel for me to really learn who I was, and then be able to impact people with my words. Elephant was one of the first places that I ever

As he says in the video, this isn't news to anyone listening, but it is a mindful reminder that we can all benefit from hearing.

This week Waylon discusses three categories of judgement that one might face from others: criticism, praise, and toxic attacks. Criticism is something many of us shy away from. We shouldn’t. It can make us better, if we know how to separate the wheat from the chaff. Praise is fun, but can be uncomfortable or unhealthy. Still, it’s good information to get. Toxic attacks—those are another story, and can really hurt or…just slide right off. Let’s talk about how. “The biggest fear or concern slowing me

This week Waylon discusses a handful of things that have come to enrich his life in the present that he learned from growing up with less. “People talk about being poor as a sort of a negative thing. However it gave me life skills and appreciation for things that have enriched my entire life. There’s financial poverty, and that’s real, and there are real problems around it. But there are also some positive attributes, and I want to highlight a few of those.” ~ Waylon Lewis Read the accompanying
