Welcome to those who are of the mindset that the path to healing in the world begins within.

The events currently on display in our daily lives, both domestically and globally, cry out for a deeper understanding of human connection & acceptance. Where better to start than in our own lives, personally within ourself & with those we share our day to day living. These encounters provide the training ground for our relationships in our communities & the world. Learn well here & the effects can transfer outward in ways we may never know. We can trust that charity in fact does begin at home & that all politics indeed are local.

Contemplative Activity:

If you experience a negative or hostile or critical opposing idea or opinion from another source, at the instant when you would defend or explain or correct, instead, breathe in & harness your most sincere curiosity. Curiosity as to how they formed the idea or opinion, what path of thinking they followed, where they retrieved the information and how they formed it into this way of being expressed. You are not required to accept or adopt their idea or opinion, simply allow it to exist in your awareness. Gently contend with it & if you have the opportunity to inquire, then take that step graciously and sincerely. Asking with genuine interest how their idea or opinion came to be.
