There were many wonderful moments with Rachel that could not be included in the film. The film team intends to continue editing these gems and sharing them so check back.
Sitting with Rachel
The Enoughness of My Life
To grow to feel more loving, more loved, more peaceful, more funny and always curious and interested… this is the most important work that any of us can do.

In This Moment I am Safe: Extended meditation scene
In this extended clip Rachel talks about her initial diagnosis and her reactions to it. She talks about actually feeling people praying for her. She shares her dream of creating a mindfulness/wellness center for Brotherhood-Sister Sol in Harlem.
Rachel Advocates for Health Care
In the video Rachel addresses members of Congress considering the repeal and replacement of the Affordable Care Act, former President Barack Obama’s signature health care legislation. She urges them to preserve Medicare, the federal health insurance program for the elderly and disabled that would be overhauled, and critics say diminished, under some Republican plans.
Reflections on the Ebb and Flow of Tides in Tebenkof Bay
First you look at this rock and it looks dry and scruffy … and when the tide comes in feathery tongues come out…. I would just sit there for an hour looking at this little feathery whatever it was and think…this is life…I am part of it.
