Way of Nature: Esalen, September 2015

Way of Nature: Way in the Wilds

Gratitude is the first word that comes to heart and mind. This was my last wilderness workshop for the year — and what a sweet way to end the season. Perfect weather, a community filled with kindness, and a willingness to step in fully, all came together to create a deeply nourishing experience.

Special thanks go out to Joe for the remarkable way he step in. Noël for the excellent lunches and for the support she has given this season in assisting many workshops. And, all of the extras that showed up to add to the mix, Fletcher, Sidney, and Janna.

Wishing that each of us is having an easy time weaving the deep threads of our experience into our daily life. Here is a link to a poem to remind us, everything is animate, everything is participate, everything is waiting for us: Everything is Waiting for You
