Summer circa 2002 (Part 1) The Seed
from Viral Mindfulness the Podcast · host Alexander Smith | Mindfulness Teacher
Every great Summer starts with a challenging Winter and an idea of something better (Spring). In my case the idea came from Daphne Maramaldi at the Graduate School of Social Work (University of Utah). “David” she said, “What if you applied for an international practicum for the Summer?” Join me over the next few weeks as I take you along the summer that changed my life. I read to you from Ocean Vuong’s novel about beauty and being gorgeous, and share one of my favorite quotes on travel (it’s painted and printed in my very first sketch book).
