Roots, in botany, are the part of a vascular plant normally underground. Its primary functions are 

  • To anchor of the plant 

  • To aid in the absorption of water and minerals

  • To store a reserve of food.

Our practice serves much the same purpose. It anchors us to the present moment, it allows us to absorb the benefits of being present, non-judgmental and compassionate, and it prepares us to face difficult times with equanimity.

And, here is the vital element - we can access this wisdom just as we are. We are born with roots. Rootedness is innate to us.

Join me for today’s mini meditation as we practice accessing our roots.
