Spiritual Practice

We humans have lost the wisdom of genuinely resting. In an interview with Marianne Schnall the master explained how meditation can help us.

However you celebrate, holidays and rituals are an invitation for reflection. They remind us of our past, and they also invite us to be attentive to the present moment.

Sure, I have pink hair, and sure, I love to dance all night to a raucous feminist punk band, but my participation in a faith community is what sets me apart from my peers.

‘I learned prayer was about connection to the holy in one another and the holy that was greater than us.’

Prayer creates relationship where otherwise there might be none.

‘In the midst of crisis or heartbreak, a regular spiritual practice can help us find the capacity to remain present to our emotions and experiences without cutting them off or turning away.’

‘The more I worked with it, the more I liked the idea of God’s grace as three sweet teenagers following me around.’

We need to rethink what ‘successful’ meditation looks like.
