“To drop into being means to recognize your interconnectedness with all life, and with being itself. Your very nature is being part of larger and larger sphere of wholeness.” Jon Kabat-Zinn
This quote reminds me that every interaction I have affects someone or something else, and that it’s my responsibility to manage that impact. The last few months have brought an unprecedented amount of tension into our lives and strain on our relationships. Bring to mind a recent situation where your words didn’t have the impact you wanted, and what you would do differently. This article from Intelligent Change shares some practical ideas for showing appreciation in your relationships.

Celebrating the refreshing and detoxifying properties of watermelon and fennel, this fresh side salad is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. Make sure you source sweet eating onions to avoid the sharpness that can come from raw onion. We used Calabrian grown, Tropea onions (known by the Italians as la regina rossa) and favoured for being one of the sweetest onion varieties in the world.

One of the pleasures of cooking is preparing the ingredients. Be aware of all your senses while you are preparing this salad. Can you observe the aniseed smell of the fennel? Can you taste the sweetness of the Tropea onions and appreciate their unique flavour? Can you focus on the hue of the watermelon? What sound does your grinder make as you crack the pepper or glug the olive oil? How does it feel to crumble the fetta between your fingers and to sprinkle it on top? Being aware of all our senses during a simple activity like making a salad, can help to quickly ground us in the present. What other activities this week could benefit from your awareness?

“Happy the Man, and happy he alone,
He, who can call today his own:
He who, secure within, can say,
Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.
Be fair, or foul, or rain, or shine,
The joys I have possessed, in spite of that, are mine.”
– Horace
