In this episode, I share how circles have been showing up in my art practice, on my body as a tattoo and in my spiritual practice. I talk about enso practices in Zen Buddhism and Zen Philosophy, some of the many meanings of circles, how I have been exploring them spiritually and reflections I am having on them lately.
I share two wonderful books, Enso: Zen Cirlces of Enlightment by Audrey Yoshiko Seo and Zen and the Art of Photography: A Guide to Mindfulness in Creativity by Douglas Beasley.
I also open up about a deep visual meditation that I did with Lacy Phillip's (www.tobemagnetic.com) work and the powerful healing experience it was for me when I walked into my subconscious and met a circle of younger and older versions of myself.
I have this quote on my art table that connects so beautifully to circles and their role in my life and art: "Flow down and down in always widening rings of being." -Rumi
