Blessed Mother’s Day to all!! 🌸

“Like a caring mother holding and guarding the life of her only child, so with a boundless heart of loving kindness, hold yourself and all beings as your beloved children.” -Gautama Buddha

A poem written by a dear friend, Ryan Redman:

Who amongst us is brave enough to be alone and lost?

When the crowd we have gathered begins to leave,
don’t scramble for pleasing expressions, meditation techniques, or sacred dance.

Sit still.
Place a hand on the heart
and attentively listen into the gift of solitude.

Keep the door open,
allowing conclusion and certainty to walk away.

Say yes to the blankness,
for it holds the manuscript of soul.

Patiently wear yourself bare,
until the sound of robin ushers the dawn.

Desolation is the conduit of grace.
Desolation is the conduit of grace.
Desolation is the conduit of grace.

What fun we had in Mindful Games Pop Up 2! The kids explored nature art combining their creativity with the sensory experience of handling objects from nature - while also practicing patience as they meticulously glued their objects to a framed canvas. They also played OuiSi Nature, working collaboratively with a partner as they paired together nature cards, deciding which cards shared similarities and recognizing that we all share different perspectives as the possibilities are endless!
