Join me for Mindfulness Recharge Sessions!

“By witnessing how we are, in our body, heart and mind, we become armed with the necessary information needed to respond thoughtfully and with care.” I found this quote by by Jill Satterfield while organizing my desk at home, where I am spending more hours than usual during this period of quarantine.  What really resonates …

Preparing a Cup of Chai

I recently wrote out my recipe for chai for a group of friends. I thought I would share it here, since you may find it comforting to prepare cup of tea, that is warming and spiced for good health. Enjoy! Preparing a cup of chai requires careful attention - the subtle flavors of the spices …

Would less attachment lead to more connection?

Participants in the mindfulness morning I host once a month asked me if I could talk about attachment during our next morning together.  As I began to generate an outline for our discussion, I started, as I usually like to, with an open-ended question.  What are we attached to? I began to consider the range …

What do you want to leave behind?

I often work at the newly renovated public library in a neighboring town, which has been designed for collaboration and work, complete with conference rooms, tech-help, a large hall filled with worktables, and a café.  A couple of weeks ago, during my tea-break, as I squeezed Agave syrup into my mug, the top suddenly popped …

What do you want to give?

Two weeks ago I had the chance to attend a day of meditation with Tara Brach in honor of the launch of her new book, Radical Compassion.  In this book, she describes a process called RAIN (Recognize-Allow-Investigate-Nurture).  She explains that she has used and refined this process over a long period of time and she …

These Are the Days

In conversations with friends, I often hear something like - 'Once this is sorted out then...' or 'I need to figure out where I want to live/work/what I want to do, then...' When we keep waiting for something to happen, to begin to live, how do we embrace the life we are living now? For …

What is your path in the year ahead?

It’s the middle of January and that means that it’s the middle of the month of New Years Resolutions.  Maybe you made some that you are sticking to, have already forgotten or struggling with.  Maybe you are still formulating, or still intend to come up with a few (like me ☺️ ).  I have always …

How do we choose?

As we head into the end of this decade and into the beginning of the next, I can't help but think about choices. Earlier this week I chose to participate in an hour of mindfulness with a support group for people struggling with mental health issues.   I chose the theme of compassion for the session …
