Honoring Mess As Spiritual Practice

Honoring Mess As Spiritual Practice.png

“Honoring mess” is a surprising phrase for a spiritual practice. So much of life is focused on creating order, structure, and silence, all of which seek to eliminate mess. Dr. Preeta Banerjee, a mystic, change agent, and social companion, shares how her experience with the divine feminine and her role as a mother have invited her into new ways of being.

Preeta and I model the spiritual practice of honoring mess within our conversation, as we laugh about the flexibility recording this episode required. We recorded in December, and my equipment was on its last legs. We hobbled our way through, but it took two separate sessions to get usable audio. Her graceful response, her generosity with her time, and her deep kindness taught me so much about simply allowing life to be as it is, instead of wishing it away.

I hope you enjoy this inspiring, interspiritual dialogue.
