The pandemic, the resulting economic crisis, and the national unrest surrounding police brutality targeting black people have made 2020 emotionally and physically exhausting for a lot of Americans. All of these issues are greatly affecting the mental health of American communities of color, who already face steeper challenges in accessing mental health care. The Loveland Foundation is helping to close the gap by funding high-quality, culturally competent therapy sessions for communities of color with a particular focus on black women and girls. When we invest in the mental health of black women and girls it not only causes a shift in their lives, but it overflows into their homes, families, and communities for generations to come.

As you may know, we started Ten Percent Happier LIVE as an experiment around the beginning of the pandemic in the United States to see if we could help people out at a tough time. Here in the U.S., we are beginning to cautiously re-open and venture out into the world and as a consequence, we're sunsetting this particular iteration of Ten Percent Happier LIVE.

This Friday, June 5th will be our last episode of Ten Percent Happier LIVE in its current form. We're all aware that many of you have come to rely on the show, so we're rolling out resources to continue to help you:

-There is an unofficial (but amazing) Facebook group you can join to keep up this sense of community called "Beyond the Cushion":   / beyondthecushion  
-We post 2 new podcast episodes each week, which you can listen to at https://www.tenpercent.com/podcast or wherever you like to listen
-We will be releasing a Challenge later this summer and encouraging all to join
-Because we LOVE connecting with our audience live, we will be introducing new live content in the app down the line
