I've practiced some qigong every day for a long time now, but I think laughing is the perfect exercise: it's free, effortless and will always make somebody else feel better. Thanks for your solstice thoughts. Carl Laughter: so important.

Thank you so much. A couple of us in the Earth & Sky office also went swimming today in a cool, dark pool ... early this morning before the sun came up. It was beautiful! Deborah Keith, how lovely.

I actually did go swimming in a cool, dark pool in a nearby river. Now, how did they celebrate the rest of the year? I can't wait to put all these ideas into practice to help me stay connected to nature in a meaningful, non-religious way. Keith Cantrell This was wonderful and affirming.
