(almost) every wednesday for the past three months i have meditated on ice, snow, powder and slush.i have renewed my interest in the slopes and skiing.
and while i can’t say that i am able to find a centeredness a la buddha in his lotus pose, i have found that in descending down a fall has cultivated my ability to let go. the mountain has taught me so much about not holding back- that the joy of carving snow on ski edges is the moment where fear and gravity coalesce and your mind/body have no other option but to follow.
now to find this ability in the day to day parenting, partnering, teaching, grading and breathing is the challenge.
