Greetings, Friends ~

In this week's Monday Morning Meditation, I invite you into a gentle exploration of trust—especially the kind of trust we’re called to find when life feels uncertain or beyond our control.

Together, we practice unplugging from the external noise… and plugging back into our inner resources. I share how trust isn’t something we find “out there,” dependent on circumstances going our way. It’s an internal state—something steady and available within us, even when the outer world feels unsteady.

In this meditation, we touch into the quiet reliability that’s always here:
the earth beneath us, holding and supporting…
the breath within us, steady and faithful.

And notice how the mind can so easily create stories of worry—pulling us away from that grounded sense of trust.

I encourage you to begin each day with a simple practice:

~ Feeling the support of the earth,
~Connecting with the rhythm of the breath,
~ And reminding yourself: "I trust in myself that I will do what is mine to do today."

From that place, trust becomes something we live… one breath, one moment at a time.

As you move through your day, return to the grounded earth, your breath, your inner sense of trust. Just a few mindful moments can gently shift your experience.

Thank you for meditating with me today. I’m so grateful to share this space with you.

With love and gratitude,

~ Lynn

Greetings, Friends ~

In this week's Monday Morning Meditation, I invite you to find a sense of inner shelter—especially when thoughts or emotions feel intense.

Instead of pushing the mind away or trying to control it, we practice something softer. I offer the image of being inside a warm, secure home during a storm. The winds may be strong, the rain may be loud—but you are inside… safe… steady… held.

Your breath becomes that refuge.

Together, we practice resting awareness in a central place within the body, allowing the breath to anchor us. From here, you begin to notice the mind from your observer self—watching thoughts like weather passing by, without needing to engage or resist them.

Even when the mind feels busy or loud, there is a part of you that remains calm, aware, and unchanged.

As you move through your day, return to your breath, your body, your inner sense of home. Just a few mindful moments can gently shift your experience.

Thank you for meditating with me today. I’m so grateful to share this space with you.

With love and gratitude,

~ Lynn

Greetings, Friends ~

In this week's Mmmeditation, we practice unplugging from situations in your life or in the world around you that pull on your energy and attention, and pull that focus into your heart center where stillness refreshes you!

Practice this anytime you feel pulled apart by circumstances and need to clear your mind and see things in a new way.

Thank you for stopping by! I hope this is helpful for you today.

I’m so grateful to be on this journey with you. 💛

With love and gratitude,

~ Lynn

The World Is a Challenging Place Right Now

Not that you needed a reminder…

I asked my oldest offspring, who is currently a grad school history major in New York City, what can I offer people when the country and world conditions elicit feelings of helplessness?

I know how to teach people to work with their triggers and activated nervous systems, but what else can be done when action steps are what people are asking for?

They gave me several excellent ideas to share with you:

🌎 Limit news intake to one intentional hour per week. News is streaming 24/7, but that doesn’t mean you have to flood your mind, heart, and nervous system with all of it. You have found that situations change by the moment, and everyone is commenting about what just happened until the next thing happens, which made the prior thing null, and this thing depends on the next thing…You get the idea. Choose one hour per week to set aside everything else and find out the bottom line on what is happening. Then put it away for the next six days.

🌎 Volunteer locally. Most big movements happen from the bottom up. See what local politician you can support who resonates with your values. Make phone calls, go to rallies, pass out flyers, ask their local office how you can help.

🌎 Visit the library. Local organizations that support changes often meet at the library. Find one that is helping to improve something you believe in.

🌎 Support companies and organizations that support your values, and boycott those that don’t. Money talks, and where you spend yours is a vote for what you believe in. Make it count.

🌎 Remember your beloveds. Remember what is important to you–people, friends, family, humanity as a whole. The pandemic taught us how important our people are to us when we couldn’t be near them, even when they needed us the most. We are designed to grow toward compassion and connectedness. We are designed to grow in love, not to withhold it. It’s possible, even when we disagree. We have to learn to live on the same planet with each other, and we will. There was a song that was sung at the end of every church service I attended for most of my life that ended with the line, “Let there be peace on Earth, and let it begin with me.” Practice this.

We are all in this together with the same stakes, no matter what side we are on. We can’t change anyone else, but we can choose any of these options to keep moving forward in a positive direction.

I’m in this with you, and here to support you however I can.

With hope, gratitude, and love,
Lynn
