    Introduction

    Hello there,

    My name is Laura. I'm a Soto practitioner currently without a local sangha, and I thought I'd try this on and see if it fits. My practice has been suffering of late, so perhaps involvement here will help. My problem, of course, is that I think I have time. I need to work on this.

    I'm still just starting to learn. I'm not a teacher. Please don't take anything I say too seriously. I already take myself too seriously!

                  Welcome, Laura.

                  The zafu is dusty
                  The cats wander in and sleep
                  The mind sneezes 'Achoo!'

                  :lol:
                  Un otro mundo es possible, si...
