Quote Deepak Chopra By Nikki Walton I listened to a talk a while ago by Mooji that really stuck with me. He said to imagine you’re at the symphony, listening to a beautiful piece of music.

By Erickka Sy Savané I was reading an article recently about a South Carolina dad whose 8-month-old baby died after being left in a hot car all day.
