Holding the Center: Sanctuary in a Time of Confusion

Holding the Center: Sanctuary in a Time of Confusion

As in all his books, Heckler draws from personal experience: training his horse, cultivating presence in aikido dojos, consulting with business executives, raising children. A masterful and encompassing book, Holding the Center develops from the fulcrum of the self in the natural world. Many of Hecklerâ€™s lessons arise from his life as a householder and father. Community is a larger familyâ€”we make alliances to â€œtake care of what matters to us.â€ But, as Heckler teaches, that takes listening to others with an open heart, and learning what the needs of others are.The world can be a sanctuary, if we find a balance between instinct and choice. Richard Strozzi Heckler sounds an important call about the interplay between power and generosity in these subtle and luminous essays.
