Celebration!

It’s exactly three weeks since I returned from the spectacular trip to Patagonia. I have much to celebrate, and I’d like to offer three gifts over the next three weeks: simple practices to keep our mindfulness and meditation alive and well. 

The themes of Celebration, Gratitude and Generosity keep popping up for me.  Amidst the hustle and bustle, it’s good to remember to celebrate the small everyday joys.  If you haven’t seen the Jane Goodall video “in Her Own Words”, it will be a unique reminder of the magic that exists in “routine” moments. Watch trailer below and view the entire show on Netflix. 

Celebration also arises with the memories created by 14 hardy travelers who journeyed to Patagonia in November and were blessed with the exquisite beauty of nature and good company,  We went to the end of the earth, literally. (PanAmerican highway travels 19,000 miles from Prudhoe Bay Alaska and ends in Ushuaia Argentina, where we stayed just north of Antartica.)  Penguins, Condors, Coatis, Guanacos, waterfalls, rainbows and mountains beyond mountains.  Imagine…..

Mountain Meditation

Celebrating Cape Horn


This week I offer a song to celebrate Love and Kindness, Wellness, Peace and Happiness.Chant along for 3 minutes and see if it doesn’t lift your spirits.  Take a pause from the lists of “to do” and celebrate life. 

May I be filled with Loving Kindness, 
May I be WellMay I be peaceful and at Ease
May I be HappyMay You be filled with Loving Kindness
May you be wellMay you be peaceful and at Ease
May You be happyMay We be filled with Loving Kindness
May we be wellMay We be peaceful and at Ease
May we be happy

XOXO, Kate
