24 Hours of Silence with Patricia Leavitt
As humans of this living planet, we're giving and receiving energies all the time. One way we embody this relationship is through our food, whether we're harvesting or shopping, prepping, cooking, dining, or excreting.
Let's use this retreat time to explore how we are in these activities. Resting deeply in the shared practice of silence at winter solstice time gives us space to listen to our body, thoughts and feelings.
Where does my food come from?
What is the quality of my presence in the act of preparing, serving, eating, cleaning up?
What happens when I am present to my first taste?
