 We chatted about the inspirational moment that brought the book to her one night at the kitchen table and lots more.

One of the books is a children’s book and the other one is for adults.

 One of my favorite things is the book mark that comes with each book and of course Chandler’s drawings. Her son Chandler illustrated the book, he’s 10 now.

 I Choose?? is an award winning book that sits on Deepak Chopra’s library shelf.

The stage is the landscape and you are the actors. The instructors are highly trained and keep everything safe and fun. They travel to you or you can come to them.

I took my niece and sister on a weekend and I still call on the memories to motivate me. My youngest niece didn’t make the trip. She was too young so she’s waiting her turn.

I’d like to do it again so if you’re in Florida and interested in bringing the COTEF staff to our lovely state let me know and I will begin a list. If get to 20 I know we can get them to come.

Visit their website watch the video and read the stories.

It’s a daily reminder to bless yourself with the earth’s riches.

So each day give yourself the gift of opening to the planet and universe you live in:

  1. Close their eyes and look to the sky and feel the sun or moon on your face
  2. Touch the earth with your bare feet or hands
  3. Notice the direction of the wind when it’s blowing or it’s stillness

This simple pledge is the beginning to opening up to the many wonders of the natural world.

Begin today, and give yourself a chance to connect to the earth. Then send us your experiences and daily ritual by leaving a comment on the blog. We will share them with our radio listeners.

Sign up for a free copy of the pledge at the right and receive our occasional newsletter.
