Color Walk

Wellness Loud
About this episode

Our story tonight is called Color Walk, and it’s a story about a soft way to move through the

world on a spring day. It’s also about a box of crayons in the desk drawer, a thin jacket, a cool

breeze, storefronts and shop windows, and elevating the every day with calm attention.


We give to a different charity each week and this week we are giving to White Rock Bear

Sanctuary, whose simple but noble purpose is to rescue and rehabilitate bears.
