03.28.24 - Morning Meditation - The Gentle Breath

Hello and good morning.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the lungs are viewed as the "canopy." They're considered delicate for a number of reasons, and sometimes I think about this delicateness when we start to talk about the breath. In my own experience, it feels like there is always an bit of softness, a bit of something gentle about the breath. Even when we're not paying attention to it, it's there.

It feels like we could all use something a little gentle (maybe including our lungs, those delicate beauties), so that's our focus today. I hope it's just the thing. 💗

As mentioned, lots of classes coming up in April. All the sign ups are live. All classes are by donation. Here's the list:

• The usuals! Saturday AM online, Sunday PM at Pinned
• New! Tuesday and Thursday AM meditations online (think of these like this email delivered to your inbox, but live)
• New! Compassion Series - we're exploring lovingkindness!
• New! Beginner Series online
• Returning! Walking Meditations - both at Antrim and Highbanks

I think that's it? I am most excited to get out and be in the parks with you again. I also really can't think of a more important class than the Compassion Series. Our world is really going through it, each of us are too in our own ways, and I think this practice is so important.

Thanks for being here today. 💗 I hope to see you soon. Take care.

It means so much to me that you're here. I hope you'll consider supporting your practice and these meditations by becoming a paid subscriber (which includes benefits like daily meditations) and/or sharing this with a friend. ✨
