In this Insight Timer live session from New Year's Eve 2023, we explore our intentions as we move into the new year. Using Mary Oliver's question from her poem 'The Summer Day': "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" we reflect on the benefits of approaching our spiritual life and practice with a sense of urgency. We can, at times, be complacent about our practice, thinking 'we have time', but, as the Buddha said, life is 'like a bubble in a stream, a flash of lightning in a summer cloud, a flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream' and the fruits of practice are priceless.
