The Places We Are Seen and Heard Are Holy Places

In the places where we are seen and heard are holy places. We need them with each other, and we need to create that kind of space of presence for our inner life. I sometimes think of it as spiritual reparenting that we all have some severed belonging,. But we can feal that if we learn how to offer mindfulness and kindness inwardly to the parts of ourselves that feel rejected in different ways. And this is what, to me, is so empowering about meditation.
