While navigating the very narrow habitrail of daily living, it’s very easy to forget there’s an amazing, alluring and mysterious universe all around us that we simply cannot completely quantify (but take very much for granted). Over time, this daily dulling of our imagination can kill our heart, mind and soul, but only if we let it… If you’ve misplaced your sense of wonder and want to reclaim it, join Paul and his very special guest Fred Provenza ( https://paulchek.com/blog/podcast-episodes/episode-214-fred-provenza-food-farming-and-our-future/ ) on an exploration of the cosmos through the world of dreams this week on Spirit Gym.
