The Power of a New Year’s Resolution

With Christopher Titmuss recorded on January 5, 2020.

We start a new year. It is 2020.

Perhaps the intensity of environmental dramas in 2019 finally made clear to many people the vulnerabilities to life on Earth.

It might be useful to make a New Year’s resolution that lasts longer than a week.

Here are four considerations.
1. Dedicate an hour a day or seven hours a week expressing concerns about the eco-crisis.
2. Practice to be free from living in hope and fear
3. Attend a retreat or two for renewal, confidence and the capacity to act.
4. Meditate and reflect on the Timeless to free up the whole being.

Join Christopher in this session to explore these suggestions in more depth.

    This week’s topic is “Generosity at the Heart of One of Life’s Greatest Mysteries”. What meaning does generosity embody when we open our minds to accepting one of life’s greatest realities – that in fact we know and master very little. Let us explore the different ways in which facing our experiences with generosity allows us to let go of our preconceptions and taste all of life’s flavours and feel fully alive.

    The Procurement of Kindness and Sanity

    Jill writes: “We all possess the capacity to be very aware of our internal landscapes of body, heart and mind. And fortunately, with practice, we can tend to what we see, feel and know as it all arises in the moment, rather than days, months or decades later. It sure saves a lot of pain…

  • Wisdom and compassion in our relationships: two sides of the same coin.

    Wisdom and compassion are two wonderful qualities that grow in us as our practice deepens. Diving into each one and into the inseparable nature of the two reveals the way in which they support and give rise to one another, and the way they manifest in our relationships: with ourselves, with others, with the world….
