In this shorter episode, I'm sitting on a mossy log, dangling my legs off a cliffside adjacent to Buntzen Lake. Feeling deeply grateful for life I simply offer that you remember to recieve the moment by moment gifts life has to offer. Some calls these "glimmers" and others refer to this as"mindfulness" or a gratitude practice. Whereas I do see the value in these concepts, I see this experience as much more than any therapeutic or Zen concept. I liken this to a connection to the Great Mystery, to the land, to our bodies and to the potential of our energetic link to all living beings.
The only other subtopic that arises is about Susan McConell's concept of "Radical Resonance" a profound topic that strongly relates to the process of healing from trauma.

Song in the intro- "Light of the Mountain" by Brandon Tilt
I acknowledge that I learn, grow and heal on the unceded ancestral lands of the kʷikʷəƛ̓əm , the Katzie, the Stó:lō and the Tseil-Watuth First Nations. These lands were never abandoned nor surrendered by those with the ancestral rights to steward and protect these lands.
I honor and respect the elders, the children, the land stewards, the land protectors, the medicine keepers, and the men and women of all Indigenous nations.
Huy ch q’u (thank you) to those who support the indigenous communities and actively decolonize their minds and spirits.
Aho Mitakuye Oyasin, All my relations.
