Hey Friends!

Welcome to Episode Number 8! As always I continue to experiment, explore, and try things out. This week I do a little bit of a book review. I think I'd really like to do more of this type of thing, that is if you all dig it.

I was sent a book from a website called Speak Easy. The book is called The Lotus and the Rose: A Conversation Between Tibetan Buddhism and Mystical Christianity. I won't delve deeply into my thought about the book here, you can listen to the episode if you'd like to hear more!

I really hope you enjoy it!

Let me know what you think!

Here's a link to the YouTube Collaboration with Stuart Carter from Simply Mindfulness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETqNFvJxXlA&t=508s
