EPISODE 21: Lovespiration - Writer/Director Stan Lai's "Nightwalk in the Chinese Garden" Inspires the Heart

Stan Lai is an award-winning playwright and director. Currently his play Nightwalk in the Chinese Garden is in production at the Huntington Gardens.  The play is staged in the Chinese Garden, the "Garden of Flowing Fragrance." The audience travels through the garden, over bridges, through pavilions, walking with the actors as they transition from scene to scene, from one magical location to the next, traveling through a journey of the heart, exploring love in all its forms, whether in dream, death, life or theatre, our hearts are deeply moved.  
The play inspired a short guided meditation for us to explore all the glorious real estate in our hearts held for all of time, by all that has touched our hearts up to this moment.

EPISODE 19: West Wing Actress Melissa Fitzgerald Brings Heart to the Justice System at NADCP

There is a ray of sunshine in our justice system and actress Melissa Fitzgerald makes it shine even more brightly. 
Melissa played Carol on the television series West Wing for seven years.  In 2013 she abruptly left her successful Hollywood career to move to Washington, D.C. to serve as the new Senior Director at Justice for Vets, a division of the National Association of Drug Court Professionals (NADCP).  She wasn''t new to fighting for justice, nor was she new to bringing light to the struggles of our returning vets (See the documentary she co-executive produced from 2011 Halfway Home), nor was she a stranger to the tragedies of drug addiction, having lost a dear friend to an overdose. She now works  at the intersection of all these worlds and her stories are bound to make your heart happy.  
Listen in for some good news. These treatment courts are making a difference, reducing crime and costs while uplifting individuals, families and communities on the path to justice being served for all.
