Even in a utopian paradise we can’t escape our deepest desires. The aching, inescapable truths of life will find us, trailing behind us and waiting for light to reveal what is lurking in the shadows.

It’s in the midst of nature where we can behold the miracles of Life and Creation. We can witness the simplicity and complexity of it all. We are all an extension, an integral part of all that is. It’s here that lies the connection with Source below, Universe above, and God within.

The road to healing begins by journeying within ourselves. The truth is, healing doesn’t have to take place in a holy land under the guidance of a shaman or Buddhist monk. We are quite capable of getting uncomfortable in our homes.

There is, undoubtedly, a tremendous life force within each and every one of us. It is not only our birthright to tap into and emanate that vital energy but also our responsibility.
