naked soul reflection - surrender to the divine in everything

Published: Sept. 19, 2016, 1 p.m.

In this week's episode, we practice acknowledging the divine in everything, even the things we don't like, that make us feel uncomfortable, or even cause pain or anger.

In this episode, I reference how clothes free camping helped me to really connect with the divine in myself and in everything around me. Even bugs, which normally would have me running out the door screaming, seemed divine while I was naked in nature and fully connected with them. That gave me a frame of reference for practicing seeing and surrendering to the divine in other areas of life, be it on yoga mat, at work, dealing with people, a variety of circumstances, or just being alone.

I share three poems by Hafiz, all drawn from "The Gift: Poems by Hafiz the Great Sufi Master" translations by Daniel Ladinsky
