It's safe to say we've all learned something in our lives (or at least I hope so), but how often do we actually sit and think about the skill of learning, and how to... learn how to learn?

One of the biggest mistakes we make is thinking that the most spiritual moments only happen at retreats or seminars, or during medicine ceremonies. The truth is, some of the most spiritual moments and "downloads" come from what seem to be the most mundane and otherwise unexciting surroundings. Today's real-life story is one of said moments. Today, we're talking about the 8:30am Tuesday Uber ride that changed my life and perspective for the better. It's basically like... The Busy and Spiritual Bi...
