Life is full of great people, great meetings, great conversations, great ideas, and great interaction. ‘Adventures In’ is an invitation to Somatic Expression, to activities that you fully engage.
The word Somatic is more than physical activity. Somatic (ancient Sanskrit, meaning sensuous, body-mind-spirit connection), a balance of internal integration with an outward expression of your whole self, in the moment, rather than just a blank appearance of being there.
“Tasting Life” by German Photographer Mario Dolinger
I am reminded then of one of my favorite quotes and an action item:
Being engaged is a way of doing life, a way of living and loving. It’s about going to extremes and expressing the bright hope that life offers us, a hope that makes us brave and expels darkness with light. That’s what I want my life to be all about – full of abandon, whimsy, and in love. -Bob Goff
Maya Angelou-Be present in all things and thankful for all things.
Or the retelling of the William James quote – “To change one’s life: 1.) Start immediately. 2.) Do it flamboyantly. 3.) No exceptions.”
William Arthur Ward- Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
To Listen is a gift of great value, use it wisely
– Calvin Harris, H.W., M.

Ponder in January concepts of blessings from friends and family that have move you forward.
