Episode Synopsis
This meditation led by Julie Potiker might be just what you need today. She completes the meditation with the poem, "Imaginal Cells", by James Crews.Imaginal Cells, by James CrewsLike caterpillars born with imaginal cellsthat know how to become a thing with wings, we too carry a dream inside ourselvesof a different, better world. There will bestruggle, yes, as we claw our way out ofa chrysalis that can no longer keep us trapped,as we give the heart room to breathe, spaceto seek the nectar of flowers, and the nectarof mud and dung alike, feeding on darknesswhen darkness is all there is. If we canimagine a body that breaks free of its owncontainer, if we can envision a place whereeveryone feels safe and welcome, then we canbecome anything. Perhaps it beginswith a small yes stirring in a cluster of cells,and the trust that this—whatever this might beis never the end of the story.-James CrewsFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".
