Spiritual Practice



Running is part of my spiritual practice. It's separate from formal meditation - I sit to find myself in stillness. Running is dialogue in motion. My purpose on these runs is to receive and give each breath and step as grateful prayer. It's my time to gather insight from contact with earth. Secrets are shared. Running is an ongoing conversation - my ego is subdued through distance and nature speaks directly to our common spirit. My body speaks a primal language understood by ground and air. I tell the world that I am grateful. Nature unfolds perfect in her reply.

Peace,
Eric
