Oh Sebene, you are soooo brave, inspiring, magical and heart opening. I am hurting right now physically and mentally but you are such inspiration. This email has especially touched me. I will reread this to help me find strength to climb my mountain and finally see the light at the top. Thank you for being so raw and real.
Dearest Sebene, you touch my heart and my soul profoundly. What a deep and transcendent Spirit reaches me trough your words and the energy they carry. How bold, honest and yet vulnerable and brave you share your insights and your heartaches, your victories and your doubts. I thank you from my heart for the inspiration on how you walk your path and celebrate your life.
I have been following via 10 percent happier for many years. Your voice put me to sleep with a gratitude sleep meditation. I share your book with anyone who will listen. I teach about your book to other healthcare professionals. Even though we have never met and sadly may never met, you help me to be a better physician, mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend and human. You have helped me remember that I belong in this world. I’m so glad I found you in this platform. Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so glad to hear about your current health. Be well.
"... not waiting for the chaos to subside (internally or externally, personally or collectively) to be present, to fully feel whatever arrives in any moment and allow it all..."
YES!
I feel validated.
After much mediation a similar notion (not as eloquently put) came to me and it has radically shifted my perspective on Being
Your engagement and service are a great benefit. May you continue to feel well, connecting with friends, and helping us all appreciate that awe is important and possible no matter your lung capacity.
As always, I am so impacted and moved by your writing and voice and all of it. And this one really landed in a way that I needed today. And also - SNOW. Thank you - for this and all of it - who you are and how you walk in the world.
Sitting here, blanketed in eclipse light, thank you for your words. Your presence inspires. And this:
"I remind myself to investigate what is a feeling arising in response to the moment and what is a confusion fueled by my stories." Those damn stories...and blessings for yours.
Hi Sabene, I wanted to let you know I heard you on 10% earlier today. It was a transformative moment for me to hear you speak about your now. I love that you gently delved into astrology, I love that you shared where you are in physical space with your cancer. I just wanted to send immense love in your direction and let you know when your words are spoken They are deeply heard.
The gift you give is the gift you get. The gifts you are giving are resonating around the space-time Continuum. They will exist outside of all names and bodies. They will exist now because the internet is a bizarre thing where your voice is something I can tap into in my time, a reminder in my times of need.
For context, I am a healthcare hospice worker 20 years plus and sometimes I need to hear what Grace sounds like and you are that grace for me right now. Thank you 💖
Amiee, thank you for these thoughtful and very kind words. I’m touched. And so happy to know you’ve found my offerings helpful. Many blessings to you. 💕🥰🫶🏾
What an inspiration you are. Your presence, your realness and generosity sharing your story. I have followed Jeff Warren for a long time who now introduced me to you. I’ve made a commitment and grabbed some female friends, and we Californians will see you at the meditation party in May ❤️💪🏼 So excited.
Sebene, I love your teachings on so many levels. They help me realize joy and insight, and figure out what i can change and what I should leave the same
Thank you again Sebene! I really appreciate your explanation of spiritual maturity and what that looks like for you. You are an excellent role model for how we all can accept our "being" with grace. ❤️🙏
The way you share and perceive is so generous, and offers so much space to your readers/listeners. Thank you for the reminder to always return to story-dropping and cultivating presence. Chaos as a powerful teacher really resonates with me. I sometimes find spiritual maturity the hardest when things are going mostly okay!
Such a beautiful post, Sebene. I felt like I was right there on the hike and looking at the night sky with you. Your observations and wisdom you share about feeling vs. the unhelpful stories we tell ourselves really resonated. Thank you.

Hi Tracy! I feel you. Chaos wakes me up and sharpens me… but what’s thing called “going mostly okay?” 😂
Ha! Most likely some kind of illusion 🪄

Thank you Kate — “Feelings vs Stories” is something I should post on my fridge! 😂
Sebene - I have always loved your writing but the realness and truth in this one just hits home. Love to you.
Thanks for reading Nancy. 💕
