It never ceases to amaze me. I am just back from a very busy but so rewarding Journey to Center week. As part of the staff, I am engaged from early morning to late at night. My personal story is always that the 8500 foot altitude creates a multitude of sinus issues so I walk around with a box of Kleenex. Relaxing is not a term that easily comes to mind re the week.
But I love the experience and have no regrets after 20 plus years of the program. We begin each morning with meditation, breathing, and stretching. And, we spend our days working with a great group of people who are interested in learning and exploring the Magic of Conflict approach.
What amazes me is that I return home with a wonderful sense of inner peace despite the hectic schedule. As I resume my life here in Rochester, all the little annoyances and calamities stay just that – ‘little’. Perhaps it is the extended time devoted each morning to mind/body activities; perhaps it is being immersed in a purpose of giving value that I am deeply congruent with. I suspect all play a role. My hope now is to continue to keep this inner space of calm and wish all of you the same blessing at some point in your lives.
