Happy Solstice,
Today I’m posting a look-back at my thoughts when I graduated from the U of R last year.
“Well it is almost graduation time and this Political Science degree took me twenty years to complete! So now I have two undergrads and I am enormously grateful for both of them- one from a Bible college, and one from a university. They both changed my life in different but equally profound ways. The one thing I wish I’d learned in either school, however, is that “justice begins with the breath.” In fact, I think body and breath awareness are one of the unspoken pillars of a healthy society. Not to be prescriptive, just to be encouraging to check in with your body’s sensations when you’re under stress. It’s a more profound practice than we realize at first glance.”
