After the success of the last crowdsourced Sunday Supplement, I thought we’d make it a regular monthly feature. As you know, almost anything goes: podcasts, movies, books, tips, life hacks and more. Here’s a thread for you to share what’s inspiring you this week in the worlds of creativity and dharma. You can include images and links, so go on, knock yourself out!
I've been enjoying this piece of music. Will play it at an evening of meditation for world peace that I'll be leading soon at the Barcelona Buddhist centre. Xxx
Two fantastic things which I encountered this week are Alain de Botton’s The School of Life https://www.theschooloflife.com/ I have the app and its is full of fantastic food for thought on a daily basis. (I also got a stack of his books from the library). And I went to see the Marina Abramovic exhibition at the Royal Academy https://www.royalacademy.org.uk/ she tests the limits of body and mind. I prefer her later works, but it’s all worth a visit. Or if you can’t get there you could read her memoir https://www.amazon.co.uk/Walk-Through-Walls-Marina-Abramovic/dp/1101905042
Amazing!
Looking forward to hearing all your top tips. I've just been in bed reading about Cafe Anne's experiment to go a whole week without lying, hilarious.

I was just reminded of this lovely poem about interconnection:
The Red Wheelbarrow
-
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens.
-William Carlos Williams
One of my all time favourites, and doesn't it just get better?
Obsessed by this groove by Lola Young and the aesthetic of the video

We enjoyed this with breakfast. Love her
Lyrically the opposite of what we’re trying to do with our hearts but you know, can’t deny a groove! 🤷🏻♀️🤣
