Hi, ,

I hope your New Year is beginning slowly and sweetly... 

It seems so hard this time of year not to get caught up in the January energy of doing and striving, doesn't it? My sister-in-law, Kathleen Stark, who is a therapist, posted this:

January isn’t asking you to rush or reinvent yourself.

It’s asking you to slow down and listen.

We’re still in winter.

Mother earth is resting while she’s nurturing herself.

Your body wants to do the same.

If you feel quiet, and tired, nothing is wrong.

You’re standing in a doorway, a place of transition.

Take your time here💗

Rest is part of the magic✨

This week in our Meditation Groups, we will bask in some of the beautiful words of the monks who are on a Walk for Peace from Texas to Washington, D.C. Their message is reminiscent of the great sage, Thich Nhat Hanh. If you aren't already following their journey, check out the video and the links below.

Walk for Peace

You can follow the monks on 

YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@walk_for_peace

or on 

Facebook https://www.facebook.com/walkforpeaceusa. 

This is the hope and inspiration we all need right now.

Join us Tuesday at 12 pm ET or Wednesday at 6 pm ET!

Aloka, a dog walking 2,300 miles across America alongside Buddhist monks, is spreading peace and compassion in every city he passes through. While the Walk for Peace journey began in Fort Worth, Texas, Aloka's journey began 8,400 miles away in India. He was once a stray wandering the streets when he began following a group of monks on a peace walk.

As the monks continued their 100-day journey across India, Aloka stayed with them and was a guiding light. Today, he continues that same journey, and he's lighting up the faces of children and families all across America.
