Toward Ecosophy

Thanks very much, JMG! I'm intrigued by the early practices but haven't gotten very far with them. Do I need to have been doing the walk and meditation regularly for some time or with a certain competence level to start doing this thing too, or can I just jump right in?

Second question, if you'll forgive: Should left-handed people do it the same way, or the opposite. I'm strongly left-handed (and female, in case that should make a difference).

Thanks very much,
