GRACE by Murray Hidary May 23, 2025

What is Grace?
Where do you find Grace? 

Is it an effortlessness? 
Is it the ballet dancer?
A gently swaying willow in the afternoon wind?
A soaring soprano. 
a mother comforting her child.  

Maybe it is all of these and yet, 
it’s more, isn’t it? 

Maybe Grace is found in 
the way we love,
the way we li...

Death: The Ultimate Teacher May 13, 2025

Unlike other species on the planet, humanity has the distinction of being aware of our impending mortality. But the idea of death actually can save us, and this is what is so powerful. 

I bring it up here because underneath all this fear we’ve been exploring is really this ultimate fear of death. I...

Living in the Now May 06, 2025

Thich Nhat Hanh, the Buddhist teacher said, meditation “has two aspects. Stopping and calming is the first and looking deeply to transform is the second.”

Fear and Possibility May 02, 2025

Fear is what creates resistance to possibility. It's what gets in the way.

And yes, we give fear a bad reputation. But I'd like to reposition fear and say that fear is actually very well-intentioned!

Our brains have evolved over a huge amount of time. They've gotten humanity this far, and they've ...

Possibility as Opportunity Apr 29, 2025

How do we uncover opportunities? How do we create more possibilities that show up as opportunities? 

“If you want something you’ve never had, you must be willing to do something you’ve never done.” – Thomas Jefferson

 I think we can all resonate with that idea. But what gets in the way of possibil...

WILD by Murray Hidary Apr 28, 2025

There is a place in you
that was never meant
to be tamed. 

What is it to be wild? 

They told us, 
didn’t they, 
when we were small,
not always in words,
but in rules,
in looks that meant:
‘Be good, not wild’. 

To be wild
was to be dangerous,
unruly,
too much. 

We were taught
to line our dreams up
like shoes ...

NATURE by Murray Hidary Mar 20, 2025

How do you see the world? 
Is it with curiosity or caution? 
Is it in wonder or withdrawal? 

How do you hear the world?
Do you hear the rhythms and rhymes? 
Do you listen for the whispers? 

How do you taste and smell and feel through the world? 
Are you pulled into the intimacy of experience so closely...

Radical Responsibility in Action Jan 08, 2025

As we embrace this idea of Radical Responsibility – the notion that our lives are ours to choose and no one else is going to change the circumstances in our lives – it raises some important questions. 

How do we actually affect that? 
What do we look for in our language? 
What do we look for in our c...

Welcome to the MindTravel Blog: A Journey into What's Possible Dec 03, 2024

The quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our mindset. But how do we access our mindset? How do we shift our mindset and transform it to our advantage? 

I always love this quote from John Milton: The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.

A...
