This weekend I devoted a significant amount of time to mindful mediation. I practiced ‘Touching the Earth’, also known as bowing deeply or postulating. I use the practice to ground myself and remember that I am not alone but connected to the sum of my blood and spiritual ancestors. As always, it is a very humbling, inspiring experience.
There are many teachers, past and present, who have been responsible for my spiritual growth and who have had a hand in defining who I am. So many people I owe so much to and many of them I have barely met and some not at all. My gratitude is infinite.
“Walk as if you are kissing the earth with your feet.” - Thich Nhat Hanh (b. 1926)
