Mark O'Mara: I love the idea of sequentiality, meaning start in one place and then move to the next. We're so quick to get to the fix, improve, resolve, strategize, get rid of, he says. So not trained in just first allowing, accepting, being with, really feeling fully what's here,. whatever that is, in a non-defended way. And often just the being with awareness is actually the resolution. But sometimes other strategies are also needed to balance. He writes about nature in such a vivid way, in such a beautiful way, we can tell how much you've fallen in love with it.
