Bernard is a gardener of the world. Whether he's giving a lecture in Paris or a workshop in India, he reserves his mornings for...
...Wherever I am when I get up I go outside with a cup of hot water with inside: (depending on where I am on the planet)
• Hot water + honey or maple syrup
• Apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
• A little ground cayenne pepper...
• I sit outside, and I start by listening to the sounds... appreciating this ability I have to hear...
• Then I put my attention on my hands holding the hot cup... and I thank this ability I have to feel...
• I bring the cup close to my nose... and I give thanks for the scents that I smell and that I will be able to perceive all day long.
• I take a single sip of my drink, and I swallow it very slowly with the joy of being able to taste all the flavors... I feel the hot sip all the way to my stomach
• Finally... I open my eyes wide facing the rising sun, appreciating my eyes which have the power to read the beauties of this world... and I continue to drink my hot drink while remaining in the right part of my hemisphere... as long as possible before getting into action...
• ...Here the senses are a precious gift of life that I want to honor as often as possible
Namaste
Bernard
