I'm Awake! Now What?

Cynthia Jurs - Dharma Teacher and Author answers the question: How do we bring healing and protection to Earth? Ep. 284

This week I sit down Dharma Teacher and Author Cynthia Jurs, about her new book "Summoned by the Earth: Becoming a Holy Vessel for Healing our World" This book is about on-going, 30 year journey and an answer to the question: How can we bring healing and protection to Earth?" Cynthia talks about the importance of getting in touch with our own Buddha nature, accessing the depths of interbeing, and interconnection to become a holy vessel. She shares the fact that Earth--in order to heal and be restored requires that all of us wake up in our way, in our own communities. She speaks passionately about activism as sacred practice and how activism asks us to first, to take care of ourselves so we can see clearly and act compassionately so we can have more capacity to work for the benefit of all beings.    To find out more about Cynthia head over to her website.  Attend the online book launch here and the fly over to the book's website by clicking here.      You can watch this full interview over on our YouTube Channel.
