In this episode, I’m going to tell you where the title for my podcast came from, how the contents of an envelope reset my psyche and my socio-cultural world view in a matter of minutes, what it means to bless our own waters, and why it’s a potent starting place for getting comfortable being human.

I do a lot of things - go to jukoholiday.com to find out about yoga teacher and yoga therapist trainings at Ease Mountain Yoga, a studio I founded and currently direct in the Santa Cruz Mountains. I'm a conservationist and a research scholar working in the fields of ecology and psychology, and you can check out my work in that area of my life, including an opportunity to offset your environmental impact by helping me preserve some old-growth forest at redwoodlove.org.  I'd love to get a voice message with a question or reflection on your thoughts about getting comfortable being human at my Anchor.FM profile page.
