Thai Spirit provides a template for life lived small. The Great Recession has made a simpler life both inevitable and welcome. My teachers are Thai friends whose Buddhism is full of color and mystery, but utterly practical too. This blog is a tribute to the best of Thai Spirit and a place of dialogue about how to grow small.

Eating on the Floor, Living Small.
Traditional Thais sit on the floor, and prepare food on the floor and eat it there too. That's why their floors are so immaculate and shoes are never worn inside.
When there are no place settings or decorated dining rooms, it's easy to concentrate on the food and the fellowship.
