Awesome news Lavie. I am so glad this sangha was so positive. Yippee!! I have been returning to the walking meditations ever since Sun first introduced me to it. I find it extremely helpful because I tend to get really speedy especially around the house when I am doing chores or cooking a meal. I often have to tell myself to slow down... I am not in a race nor am I running late.... the walking meditation helps me work at a more relaxed and enjoyable pace. It is a very special gift.

I am good with anything you present. It all sounds wonderful to me which ever way you take us. I will pass on the environmental sounds though... unless its raining or the train passes in the distance or the creek or waterfalls are audible... hey that is sounding okay after all. lol.

I think I will take the time to prepare a smudge for this week. If not maybe just pull out a stick of incense.

I am good with 2pm western time or anytime for that matter. Making room for Sun to decide where she wants to land THIS time. lol. Oh right... it was me messing with the time last week. opps... sorry sun. lol.

I am in high spirits tonight. I think some of the ranting and venting I have indulged myself with today has had a positive effect. It is great to let go of things that niggle at you sometimes. It beats turning the emotions back onto myself.

I am looking forward to a sit tonight before bed. I feel joyful and want to allow that to travel through me from head to toe for a concentrated period of time. Maybe some youtube laugh therapy will suit me well tonight too.

Keep smiling my friends.
