Ep 25: Be a Kid Again! Play and Rest!

In today's episode, I riff of Hafiz's poem "These Beautiful Love Games" and talk about the importance of play. How it can shape our experience of our lives. Many teachings tells us that suffering is a choice: you can choose to suffer or you can choose to learn. Play offers a way to grow that feels less painful. If we can rest and play like we did as kids, it can soften the discomfort of our learning, our growing, and our evolution (no one said growth was an easy walk in the park!). So go forth, my friends! Cartwheel in the grass! Take afternoon naps! Spin wildly in circles with your arms out until you get dizzy and fall down, laughing! See how your world will start to shift, how your suffering might start to lessen. * Poems: Hafiz's "These Beautiful Love Games" and Rumi's "Only Breath" * Join me for yoga and meditation just for People of Color at Onyx Yoga Studio!
