Kaira Jewel Lingo on Moving Through Change, Loss, and Disruption

Do you ever wish you could hear more from the authors we feature in our Daily Meditations? 

Today, we invite you to a meaningful conversation between mindfulness teacher Kaira Jewel Lingo and Mark Longhurst, Publications Manager at the CAC. Together, they discuss the nature of Engaged Buddhism and explore techniques to help navigate seasons of loss and disruption. 

Kaira Jewel invites us to embrace the heart of Engaged Buddhism, the understanding that our individual healing is entwined with the healing of the world. She invites us into a deeper question: “In this time of holy crisis—this time of systems breaking down—how do we find refuge in our myriad of spiritual traditions so that we can be salt, be light, in the world….and build something new that allows us to survive and thrive?” 

Step deeper into new ways of embodying our 2025 Daily Meditation theme of Being Salt and Light in this moving interview.
