Note: For December 2022, Kate is offering three Thirsty Thursdays, weekly half-hour Mindfulness sessions. In this post, Kate shares a copy of the whiteboard created during the first session and adds reminders/suggestions for continuing practice.
Dear friends,
If you made it to our first session, it was great to see you. If you tried and ran into a barrier with the Zoom link, our apologies. (The problem is now fixed!) If you couldn’t make it, we hope to see you soon.
A taste of Session #1—
We practiced noticing the abundance in our lives, which naturally brought up gratitude. From that abundance, generosity followed.
We shared how stress makes us less able to feel abundant and generous. We noticed how our culture feeds us a message of scarcity, that we can’t have or be enough.
Our practice is in looking for goodness when it feels absent.
Breathing in, take in the goodness of yourself, others, and the world.
Breathing out, offer your care, and sense belonging.
Song: “Hope Lingers On”
Love,
Kate
