Gentle Wild Zen

Gentle Wild Zen Circles takes its inspiration from Kintsugi, the Japanese art of putting together broken pottery with gold. These Zen Circles celebrate and embrace the flaws and imperfections of life, just as the practice of Kintsugi does. We fulfill our true potential by including tough times. Gold, or the light, shines through the cracks of our being.

The book includes 24 color plates and short meditations on life and its incomplete wholeness.
