Morning meditation… meow 🌞🐈‍⬛💛

Only 5 days until you can join our sweet Vinnie in a lovely sunny spot, and so many other wonderful ways to relax and restore…

Between Jo’s soothing meditation and movement sessions, perhaps you’ll stroll through the woods picking wild blackberries, paint the wildflowers in our meadow, swim in the spring-fed pond, or curl up in a hammock with a book from our library?

For the details of next weekend’s self-care retreat, please visit our dear friend and neighbor’s website:

A teaching by Thich Nhat Hanh on allowing ourselves to rest like a stone thrown into a river. On the bottom of the river, it allows the water to pass by.

Sunshine and Summertime = Yoga in the Meadow!

Join me this Wednesday at 10am for the first of the season, and every Wednesday this summer as weather permits. If you’re vaccinated, no mask is required. Please bring your own mat and/or picnic blanket.

Fresh air, birdsong, frogsong, light reflecting on the pond and through the green leaves above.

Breathe, let go, and just be.

A really wonderful meditation for calming and centering.

https://insig.ht/f5u9ybNOGeb

It's no secret that collectively the world is going through a scary and uncertain time. This meditation was created for re-centering in times of fear, chaos, and uncertainty. We cannot always control what is going on outside of us, but we can always come back to our breath.

The water flows around the rocks...

“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”
Margaret Atwood - The Penelopiad

A helpful practice for this time:
https://insig.ht/e7oOTN6SKbb

Take this opportunity to settle in, listen to the poet Hafiz's quote and be guided through a meditation to experience the "light against your being" during this time. This is a meditation for presence, connection, peace of mind, and love. Allow this to permeate the moments of your day.

Today, we planted some tulip bulbs by our MLK sign. It felt good to put hands in the soil, and leave a symbol of hope for brighter days to come. 🌷 🌞
