Hi, A few people have asked me what I learned at the mindfulness workshop I did last month. While I’m not exactly sure what I’ve learned (yet), I did have one really clear thought on the last day of my visit, while having an early coffee and watching the waves. The swells were rolling in through a thick bed of kelp before crashing on the rocks. The way the kelp assumed the form of the waves was really beautiful. Regardless of the size of the wave, the tangled green mass would adapt gracefully to the energy flowing through it, rising up, swaying softly, but always returning to the same spot. After the waves passed through the kelp, they would explode violently on a large rock. Barnacles and moss make their home on the rock. Birds shit on the rock. The rock does not grow or change, aside from being slowly eroded by the endless waves. That’s when I realized that I want to be more like kelp. Thanks for reading, Jamie
