Years ago, back when I was an actor, a dear friend and fellow actor would ask "What's your story?” whenever I came into the rehearsal hall or dressing room. I always liked that. Different from the obligatory "how are you?" the question seemed more probing, as if she really wanted to know what I was going through. I didn't realize at the time that, years later, this question would become a mindfulness practice that I call "What's my story?"
