In the January issue of Heartfulness Magazine, we explore the experience of discovery.

A squirrel’s frantic search for shelter ends in an oak tree’s hollow, where home was waiting all along. We explore the gut’s unexpected wisdom as the “second brain,” and reveal the fig tree’s hidden flowers, which bloom unseen. We meet a filmmaker who confronts gender violence through comics that braid modern survivor stories with ancient mythology, turning shame into strength.

These pieces remind us that discovery isn’t always about finding something new—sometimes it’s learning to see with fresh eyes what has been there all along.
