There is a beautiful complexity of growth within the human soul. In order to glimpse this, it is helpful to visualize the mind as a tower of windows. Sadly, many people remain trapped at the one window, looking out every day at the same scene in the same way. Real growth is experienced when you draw back from that one window, turn, and walk around the inner tower of the soul and see all the different windows that await your gaze. Through these different windows, you can see new vistas of possibility, presence, and creativity. Complacency, habit, and blindness often prevent you from feeling your life. So much depends on the frame of vision -- the window through which you look.

Sending some your way today and every day.

It’s easy to feel aligned, grounded, and at peace when life is calm, when the waters are still, and the skies are clear. ☀️

But that’s not where transformation happens.

The winds that unsettle you demand your growth and evolution. Wisdom is revealed in the waves that challenge your sense of balance.

Each moment of discomfort is not something to avoid or resist; instead, it’s an invitation. An invitation to remember that you are not the storm - you are the vast ocean beneath it. 🌊

We get to practice this in meditation! We drift. We get pulled into the currents of thought … and then, gently, we return. Over and over and over again.

This is how we become skillful navigators of our inner world.
Not by avoiding the waves, but by learning how to ride them with grace. 🌊🏄🌊

Silence and reflection are powerful whenever you choose to do it, but there is something special about gathering to practice in this way with community. I honor all those that decided to join me for the 8 week MBSR class and the great work of getting to know oneself better, finding more skillful ways to manage the daily stresses of life, and recognize the joy woven in between. Today’s All Day of Silent Practice is the halfway mark, a chance to come close to all your experiences, which is your very life. Looking forward to the day. 💚
