Yesterday, at our group meditation gathering, I led a loving-kindness meditation. The goal of the meditation is to help each heart get habitually more open to others; those we love, those we don’t know so well and even to those who we may not like. Continue reading “Loving kindness a day later”

What will save the world?
I don’t watch the news but any connection with friends, social media and an awareness of the energy around me keeps me up to date on the reality that the world, my world, especially our world in the US is in dark times. This isn’t one of those, “Did you hear what he did now?!” sorts of essays. My focus is more on what can I do? Continue reading “What will save the world?”
I am perfect
I’m a little surprised you even clicked on that title… “I am perfect.” Perhaps you’re curious about what bit of ego might be on the loose here. Or maybe, you have worked hard and come to accept yourself, as I try to, as perfect. Continue reading “I am perfect”
Your body’s calming, soothing "system"
I read a lot this week about the vagus nerve. “Wow, suni, sounds like a really exciting week for you?

The mist began and a quiet settled in.

Exercise? I love it! (well, now I do)
I know it already. I’ve been taught it repeatedly. I’ve even told the fact to others, as though it is some wise maxim that I use to guide my life. But the truth is, while I know I must make exercise fun in order to do it, I usually just don’t bother with the fun or the exercise.

Mantra magic
Stilling the mind, falling into silence… this is my favorite style of meditation. Mine… as in that’s the flavor of ice cream that I like best. Are there other flavors… yes, as many as Baskin Robbins… and more. Continue reading “Mantra magic”
What are we doing here?
I came to meditation as a teenager with a mind that never shut up and horrible headaches. I learned to relax my body and in time, I learned how to relax my mind. With more time I learned that my mind isn’t me… but a tool to serve me. And then things got more fun. But that’s just my path. Yours will be different and equally fun to watch.
