Enveloped in fog
this place of enlightenment
cut off from the world.

Human connection,
Preventing face to Facebook,
No wifi at meals.

Sea lions barking
the waves crashing below me
walking home at dusk

A lovely full moon
silence beneath sheets of stars
night's serenity

Basking in the baths.
sulphur spring water soothes me,
as conscious thoughts melt.

Germaphobe hookers,
professional scab picking,
God I love improv.

Though the program's great,
the things I love the most are
the friends I make here.

One Esalen month
will lead to a full week of
media catch-up

No matter your quest,
all are here exploring the
human potential.
