Sleeping Beneath the Stars: Thoreau, Simplicity & the Sacred Ordinary

In this contemplative morning episode, I take you along on a wisdom walk through the Southam Woods—my own modern-day Walden. After a night spent sleeping under the stars, I revisit the teachings of Henry David Thoreau and reflect on what it means to live simply, wake up to the present, and find the extraordinary in the everyday. 

🛤 Listen in if you’re:
– Feeling called to slow down
– Curious about living more deliberately
– Longing for a sense of presence in the midst of modern noise
– Ready to rediscover the simple joy of being alive 

💬 Quotable:
“You don’t need to go somewhere to be present. You just need to stop long enough to hear what your life is saying to you.” 

✨ Invitation:
Where are your Walden Woods today?
Take a walk. Listen with your whole body. And remember: the sacred is never far away.
