July 25 - of zen workshops.

Saturday morning was a nice sunny one. We started off cleaning the garden in preparation for the upcoming workshop later that day. A break from the sun where we had chilled pineapple and then continued cleaning indoors.

And then spruced ourselves up to greet the visitors after lunch. We started with some meditation, followed by 2 art tasks - one reflecting the square , circle and triangle - the 3 shapes the world had been reduced to by some zen master. The other reflecting 'connection' as a theme.

This followed a nice stroll around town , followed by tea and some Japanese sweets and some conversation around inter-cultural marriages and compromises and relationships in general.

Dinner preparation was a learning experience in and of itself. Good , soulful rice dish and fresh tofu with onions - the best I've ever eaten.

Then Dorothee's son took us through some energy work - to sum it all , energy goes somewhere or the other and nothing really matters , coz one way or the other , the energy still exists. But you can channel energy to where you want it to go , be aware of where it is going, and  unblock it if it is stuck somewhere unconstructively within you.

Another revelation - July 2015 is a month of great change. Tell me about it!!
