Something about the perspective is off in a way that I really like, I guess because there's no horizon, maybe we're looking at the base of a massive rocky mountain. The fine lines in the rocks are amazing, the clouds and the trees and the buildings. The color is also so good, interesting warm glow here and there among the cold craggy stone.

If I ever disappear you can find me here meditating and living on lichen and fog water.

Our tent at Bomani Tented Camp in Zimbabwe. It is a sturdy steel and canvas structure surrounded by trees. On our first African safari, we weren’t sure what it meant for our lodging to be a ‘tent’. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the ‘tents’ were sturdy permanent structures with all the comforts of home!

What to do if bullying? Try consistent boundaries

1. do not writhe or waver. (Movement attracts the bully)
2. do not attempt to appease. (Any offer is interpreted as weakness and obtains thrust)
3. flee to a safe position that you could hold with support
4. then stand still. Set limits on how others treat you. Affirm boundaries (The bully will redirect attacks eventually)
5. connect: turn to a trusted person, reach out only to someone you feel well about
6. offer backing, foster, become accomplice, enjoy

I stayed in both places for #Retreat and the videos are worth watching - even without understanding French or German.

When the world is seemingly falling apart, when life is overwhelming and confusing, what else to do than come home?

Sitting (or laying) and centering ourselves in the heart space, our true home, paradoxically can itself feel overwhelming, because it's here in these quiet moments that we might really feel the anxiety, feel the weight of the world.

But, if we can learn to lovingly (underlined - lovingly) acknowledge that these feelings are here, and learn to sit with them rather than distract ourselves or push them away, we begin to familiarise ourselves with uncomfortable sensations and emotions, eventually perhaps even befriending them.

It's not easy, but that's why it's called practice. Sitting in this space, there is nothing to achieve, nothing to acquire - rather, it is in the letting go that change happens.
