Marcy and I hope you are well and safe and relating to vaccinations to keep yourself and all of us healthy. For the time being it seems sheltering, wearing masks, and good hand washing remains in place for the foreseeable future.
As we continue to use Zoom for offering meditation and mentoring we are aware that "isolation" is having a significant impact on everyone's life. While Zoom and other technologies support a degree of connection with others, it does not replace the human physical contact that influences our well-being. Try not to by-pass the reactivity created by isolation, especially if you live alone.
Our 3 Doors meditation practice reminds us to open to what is living in us, acknowledging it, and allowing the warmth of our nature to give it a warm luminous hug. Until warm loving hugs and physical contact are available, be kind to yourself. Make time to sit, open to, and be kind to the sufferings that visit due to the pandemic, shifting economics, cultural divisiveness, and other challenges as they emerge.
And, don't hesitate to reach out, invite others to join you via Zoom or another app, for meditation, yoga, or other contemplative practice, for a birthday celebration, for a meal. Be pro-active in providing yourself what you need.

FIRST THURSDAY GUIDED MEDITATION HEALING CIRCLE
|
| | The First Thursday of the Month Guided Meditation Healing Circle is offered on Thursday, March 4th, 2021 via ZOOM.
Our Guided Healing Circle Meditation is not intended to by-pass
illnesses of the body, the emotions, the mind, or spirit - or the pain
and suffering of each other, our families, communities, and our society.
The
3 Doors practice we share on First Thursdays is a support to open our
hearts and embrace all of the reactive emotions triggered by the winds of
aversion, attachment, and ignorance that cause dissatisfaction.
Please join us Thursday, March 4th, from 11 AM until 11:45 AM.
Led by Gabriel, the Healing Circle is open to everyone; there is no fee.

THURSDAY MORNING MEDITATION SESSIONS
|
| | There is a luminous, healing space of refuge within each one of us. It is important to make time to visit often and connect to the warmth of our nature. It is a prescription for liberating ourselves from unnecessary emotional reactivity; developing the capacity to host the pains of illness, loss, and grief; and remembering that others suffer just as we do, without exception, due to age, gender/sexual orientation, geographic location, ancestral origin, or political affiliation.
We sometimes forget that space exists, or where and how to find it. It is always available - it is waiting for us behind the doors of stillness, silence, and spaciousness.
This month I'm offering virtual, half hour guided meditation sessions each Thursday: 3/11, 3/18, 3/25 @ 11 AM Eastern time. Everyone is welcome! There is no fee.

Much love,
