Summary: Episode Description: In this talk, Nannette Monshin Overley discusses the practice of finding “groundedness” within our daily lives. When we are not sitting in the meditation hall, she says, “It’s easy to walk out the front door and immediately get swept away…so how do we practice with our egocentric, dodgeball-oriented, picking and choosing tendencies?” Nannette also explores the ordinariness of the practice itself. She calls to mind the day-to-day wisdom of Zen practitioners of the past and the insights of elders at a retirement community as they find beauty in their everyday routines.<br> To help keep these podcasts freely available, we hope you will consider making a suggested donation of $25 to our <a title="Give to Upaya's Dharma Podcast Fund" href="https://www.upaya.org/give/fund.php?id=10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dharma Podcast Fund</a>.<br> <br>
