Abby recalls how she came to mediation on her knees after what she now sees as repeated failures to keep her life in line with her expectations. In a broken marriage and with a young child, she discovered Reggie Ray’s teachings in 2012. Somatic meditation has offered a method for her to recognize her fear of letting go of control and opening more fully to the present moment. The earth breathing and body work developed by Reggie Ray have uncovered in her a confidence to engage with life in a more authentic way. Abigail works to address climate change and water quality as Director of Research for the Open Space Institute based in New York City and is most at home with the trees.
