Ep 82: Best of Vinyasa in Verse: Sculpting Light: Clearing the Way for Connection w/ Ruth Forman

In today’s episode, I am joined by Ruth Forman, an acclaimed poet, writing mentor to many, and author of children’s literature. Her most recent children’s books are Curls and Glow from Simon & Schuster. We talked about ways in which we can connect with ourselves, including saying a prayer in the morning when you wake up, and how the connection with nature is so essential to our nourishment. // Remember to just give yourself a little bit of time to write and let the divine just come through. // Give yourself space to respond to others because it speaks to your own practice of staying connected to yourself. // Talking to somebody doesn't necessarily change their behavior or their thinking, but the example you set, by staying connected to the power within yourself, can create change in people’s lives.// Connect with the divine in our own ways. // Follow me on Instagram for some real talk about healing AND play: @leslieannhobayan
