FINDING OUR ESSENCE - UNDERNEATH OUR BUSY LIVES

 

October is a time when the winds come and blow the leaves off the trees. The plants turn hues of autumn, and we see the essence of life on which growth was carried. Now life retreats into earth leaving the bones of trees and plants to bare witness to the coming cold. There's a protective quality that emanates from earth, taking her children inward, into a warm, cozy bed underground. 

​

This meditation is an exploration of what is underneath the surface of our busy lives.  I give credit to Tara Brack, who has written many books on meditation, for the bones of the meditation today.
