The Soul's Radical Root - Los Angeles

Reason may prefer a predictable plan, but genuine change touches the roots of life which include elements of mystery and surprise. In nature, a tree’s deepest root is called the radical. When it comes to human nature, each soul has a radical root that reaches to the ground of being. The soul’s radical root can tap our inner core of resiliency and connect us to our genuine purpose in life.

Being resilient doesn’t mean avoiding the obstacles and tragedies of life or the strong emotions that troubles can evoke. Rather, being resilient involves a conscious ability to “spring back” no matter what befalls us. Qualities like compassion, courage and wisdom tend to manifest more fully when something challenges us at an existential level.

Resiliency can become a practice, especially when connected to our instinctive ways of being both caring and creative. Finding and living our soul’s purpose is the way we can best serve the world at this time.
