We’ve got a great gift for you. Our lovely evening with NPR’s OnBeing host Krista Tippett and self-help author Sylvia Boorstein, called “What We Nurture,” is now available in video below. It’s the perfect thing for moms – a conversation on loving and teaching children in a complex world and a centering meditation for harried moms. We hope you enjoy it as much as our guests did in February 2011.
