“Dandelions,” Brooklyn, NY 2014

I am grateful for when an image appears right after seeing it.  Last week, while attending an event by Nitika Chopra in Manhattan, I had the pleasure of meeting author, Barb Schmidt.  The cover of her book, The Practice – Simple Tools For Managing Stress, Finding Inner Peace, and Uncovering Happiness, has an illustration of a dandelion’s seeds being dispersed into the air.  I was struck by this and we had a loving conversation about its associations, as well as her new book.  I am grateful for the copy of it that was in the gift bag.  I look forward to reading it and gaining a more in depth connection to inner peace.
