When the World Feels Heavy

In partnership with

This week feels heavy.

We marked the anniversary of September 11th, a day that changed the world forever. At the same time, we are processing the recent murder of Charlie Kirk and the shooting in Evergreen, Colorado. 💔 These moments are jarring. They stir grief, fear, and anger. They remind us just how fragile life is.

And yet—they also remind us how much we need one another. Even when we don’t see eye to eye. 🤝

The Cost of Division on Our Health 🧠💔

It’s easy to think of anger, resentment, or “us vs. them” thinking as emotional issues. But the truth is—they show up in the body.

⚡ Division and constant conflict keep our stress hormones high.
🔥 Elevated cortisol means higher inflammation, restless sleep, and weakened immunity.
🛑 Long-term, it wears down our resilience.

When we live in a climate of outrage, our nervous systems never fully relax. And over time, that costs us our health.

🕊️ Honoring Victims With Dignity

In moments of national tragedy, it can feel natural to lean on stories of those we’ve lost. But we also have a responsibility to honor them with compassion and dignity. Using the name of someone who has just been taken from us to prove a point—or worse, to shame those who see the world differently—adds pain on top of pain.

We can stand firm in what we believe without using someone’s tragedy as leverage. Every life, regardless of politics or perspective, deserves respect. 🌿 When we choose dignity over division, we protect both our communities and our health. It softens the nervous system, lowers stress, and creates space for empathy.

💜 Tolerance as a Health Practice

When I talk about tolerance, I don’t mean tolerating harm, abuse, or violence. 🚫
I mean something different: the kind of tolerance that allows us to respect people who think, vote, or believe differently than we do.

• 🫁 Pause and breathe before reacting.

• 🪷 Choose curiosity over defensiveness.

• 🤗 Practice empathy—it boosts oxytocin, the hormone of connection and trust.

• 🛑 Set boundaries when conversations turn harmful.

Tolerance in this sense is not weakness. It’s resilience. And practicing empathy doesn’t just make our communities healthier—it makes us healthier too.

🗣️ How to Have More Grounded Conversations

We don’t have to agree with everyone. But we can choose how we engage.

• 👂 Listen to understand, not to win.

• 🪞 Reflect back what you hear before responding.

• 🌎 Find shared values—family, safety, community, health.

• 🙅‍♀️ Know when to step back if a conversation turns harmful.

The goal isn’t to be right. The goal is to connect.

🌱 Caring for Ourselves in Times of Tragedy

When the world feels heavy, we need simple, grounding practices to protect our well-being:

• ☀️ Step outside and breathe deeply.

• 💧 Stay hydrated—water is a calming anchor.

• 🚶 Move your body: walk, stretch, dance.

• ✍️ Journal, pray, or meditate.

Reflection prompts to try:

• What do I need to feel safe today?

• Where can I soften my stance and make space for another perspective?

Remember: caring for yourself is not selfish. It’s how we stay strong enough to care for others.

❤️ Honoring the Past, Choosing the Future

After September 11th, for a brief time, America felt united. Strangers hugged in airports. Neighbors checked on neighbors. Compassion cut through division. 🇺🇸

What if we chose to live with that spirit of care every day—not just in the aftermath of tragedy?

This week, as we remember, grieve, and reflect, let’s also choose how we move forward:
✨ With empathy.
✨ With tolerance for those who feel and believe differently.
✨ With courage to stand against harm, and compassion to build bridges.

Because how we treat one another doesn’t just shape our communities. It shapes our health. And it shapes the future we’re creating—together.
