Acting on Behalf of Consciousness
With Recorded : January 10, 2021
As we move into this new year, most of us are ready to leave 2020 behind. So much hardship, for so many, has arisen in the last year. Many of us felt more isolated, more separate, than ever before. As we transition into 2021, rather than live and act on behalf of that felt sense…

Abandoning the Future – Caring for All Days to Come
With Recorded : December 6, 2020
To care for our lives, the lives of all beings and the earth is all at the heart of what it means to be a human being. Yet, speculating about the future, and tensing up in fearful anticipation of days to come, are not skillful expressions of care and wisdom. There is a better way….

Endarkenment: Embracing the Medicine of Light and Dark
With Recorded : November 29, 2020
As we enter the darker months of the year, consider the profound restoration and healing that darkness offers us— both physically and symbolically.

Apply as Needed; the Benefits of Skillful Means
With Recorded : November 8, 2020
Becoming quiet allows for deeper listening – to the whispers of the body, heart and mind as parts of a whole and as harmonic convergence. How we tune our instruments depends on what we hear. Skillful means provide a variety of tools to self prescribe and address what is needed in the moment. We’ll practice…

Practice as a Way of Remembrance
With Recorded : October 18, 2020
Many are referring to this time as apocalyptic. Fair enough. It can seem as though everywhere we turn a dismantling of some sort is in the works.
