In this first talk in a series that brings together many of the themes explored in our latest print edition, Emergence executive editor and Sufi teacher Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee offers a way to re-attune our sense of time to be in relationship with the cycles of the Earth—from the deep time movement of mountains, to the fleeting bloom and decay of cherry blossom. While we have stripped time down to a single expression, forgetting the axis of love that runs through it, Emmanuel talks about how inner cycles of breath and heartbeat can return us to a more expansive story of time in which spirit and matter are once again braided together.
