Solstice Meditation (Simplify)
Saturday, December 21st at 3:00 pm central

How can we simplify our lives? And can we find joy in simplicity? The time of the solstice is a cycle ending and a new vision emerging. Decide what is past its time in your life and set intentions on what you would like to enter.

To quote my friend Todd… “Stop letting ugly things into your life.” (This includes negative people and others’ issues.) What do you wish for? What’s in the way?

If creativity and discussion are things that bring you into balance, join us for an Art Healing Workshop on the Solstice, Saturday, December 21st at 12:00 pm central (1pm eastern, 11 am mountain, and 10 am pacific).We’ll be talking about the concept of Joy and making some amazing artwork.

If you’d just like to join the energy of our group, sit by the fire or wherever you are at 3:00 pm central (4pm eastern, 2pm mountain, and 1pm pacific) and close your eyes for a minute or two.

Happy Holidays and much gratitude for the work you’ve done for peace within yourself and the world this year.

Saturday, December 21st at 12:00 pm central, 10:00 am mountain, 9:00 am pacific and 1:00 pm eastern (90 minutes)

Joy – it seems fleeting, transitory… only in the absence of stress and grief can we feel it.

Joy is really pumped up this time of year… as if all the holiday hubbub compels us feel joy.

But that’s not it. We feel real joy when we are content with where we are – when we’re doing or seeing something we love. Joy comes in the breaks we take and the things we savor like our favorite cup of tea.

For this workshop, we’ll be activating our Sacral Chakra, the seat of our creativity and passion, and talking about how joy plays out in our lives and what we can do consciously to visit with it.

For this workshop, bring with you:

• 1 notebook or sheet of paper

• Something to write with

• A medium of your choice and any materials needed to work with it (i.e. canvas, paint, clay, handwork, pens, markers)

• The colors, oranges, gold, bronze, brick red and anything that feels warm and comforting…

Ahimsa means nonviolence. A Warrior is someone who survives again and again. An Ahimsa Warrior is one who can do this nonviolently. Dealing with trauma is challenging, and recovering is a battle we face again and again.

This workshop is intended for those who work for peace within themselves, knowing that it ripples outward to create peace in the world. It is designed to teach us how to channel the energy of our past into artwork that heals.

Take a breath… and relax with your pets (and the pets of others)…

This week we’ll be doing a Chakra Balancing in preparation for the Winter Solstice.

Sometimes we have to set the intention to recalibrate. This full moon leading up the Solstice is one of introspection and observation. What is it that will bring you back to your center? What have you noticed that brings you away from it?

On our journey, how often do we rest and reset? These times of peace make it possible to recalibrate.

Join us for moment of rest Sunday, December 15th. Sit for a minute or two and close your eyes. Tune into your breath and turn your aim to the direction you would like to go.

With this new moon in the sign of the Archer, it’s time to take aim. Are there hidden aspirations from our past that need a seat at the table? In which direction are we heading?

“Be clear about what you want and set a strong container for realizing your intention.” ~ Lena Stevens, The Power Path

Let’s take a moment to think about what’s next. Join us for a moment of contemplation this Sunday. Take a few deep breaths or sit comfortably for 5 to 20 minutes, connecting with the energy of our group.

Sending you all much love, gratitude and appreciation this holiday season.

“What’s Love got to do with it?” ~ Tina Turner

Well, everything. When we’re in love we’re walking on air, but the double edge of this sword is that lack of Love causes much of the suffering in our lives. And it doesn’t have to be romantic – the difference between loving your job or not is huge.

I chose the Solar Plexus Chakra for this topic because Love has a lot to do with how we feel and use our power, and the Solar Plexus Chakra is our seat of power. Love is a fundamental part of us, and it holds a lot of the energy in our lives.

For this workshop, bring with you:

• 1 notebook or sheet of paper

• Something to write with

• A medium of your choice and any materials needed to work with it (i.e. canvas, paint, clay, handwork, pens, markers)

• The colors, yellow, gold, butter, neon, white, black and anything that feels electric…

Friday, November 15th at 3:30 pm central

This Supermoon may have an edge of frustration to it. If you’re feeling a little untethered… spend some time working with the Earth, making lists to keep organized, or taking a moment to appreciate the people and things in your life that help you through troubled times.

“Today is a big day and full of choices, but we will always be stronger and better together. So let’s keep marching forward in the pursuit of loving ourselves deeper so we can be better at loving each other.”

~ ming + ming

Join us this Friday afternoon for a moment of rest to reset. Take a few deep breaths or meditate for a few minutes and connect with the energy of our group. If you’d like to try a guided mediation, check out the recordings at mingandming.com.

Friday, November 1st at 7:30 am central

This new moon is asking us to look for wisdom from our ancestors.

Are there things that they did that we want to emulate? Are there things that we don’t want to repeat?

A good way to connect to our ancestors during this time of the year is making an Ofrenda. This Mexican tradition of honoring the dead starts by gathering photos of your loved ones and relatives. Decorate a space for the photos with flowers, ribbons, candles and freshly-made or favorite foods.

This allows us to remember, grieve and celebrate those who have helped to shape our lives.

We’ll start our day Friday with the sacred practice of remembering those departed. Sit for a moment or a few minutes and connect with the energy of our group. Perhaps we will feel all of our ancestors with us.

Guidance – some of us use our intuition, logic, our higher power; some of us talk with our ancestors or angels. One thing is for sure, we are not alone when it comes to making decisions and choices.

Why is it so easy to forget that we are guided through life?

We’ll talk about our own personal guides and think about ways we connect with them when we need a nudge in the right direction.

We’ll be connecting on Zoom and working with our Heart Chakras for this workshop.

To create your healing artwork, bring with you the medium of your choice and colors like green, turquoise, lime, pink and white to start with.

Ahimsa means nonviolence. A Warrior is someone who survives again and again. An Ahimsa Warrior is one who can do this nonviolently. Dealing with trauma is challenging, and recovering is a battle we face again and again.

Aries’s Hunter’s Moon Meditation (Guidance)

Wednesday, October 16th at 8:00 pm central (9 pm eastern, 7 pm mountain & 6pm pacific)

“You cannot hold the river flow back so you may as well get on the boat and go for the ride.” ~ Lena Stevens, The Power Path

This Supermoon in October is called the Hunter’s Moon. Also known as Drying Rice Moon, Blood Moon or Sanguine Moon.*

It continues to be a time of transition… and we are asked to take responsibility for our well-being (and not expect someone else to fix us). When given the right tools, this task is easy. By the end of the month, you may have changed completely.

Now is a good time to plant the seeds of who we wish to be in the future. Consciously separate from those determined to stay in the fields of negativity, suffering, cynicism and despair…

Where is your energy going?

As the energy of the Summer falls back into the earth (to be used for warmth during the winter months), we can slow down a bit to enjoy the harvest of all our work this season.

With Eclipses and the Equinox happening during this time frame, our Autumn New Moon asks us to take a break. Choose to look inward - away from the noise and the whirlwind of life.

Even disconnecting for a few deep breaths can be the reset we need to enjoy this change in season.

Grab a warm drink and join us for a self-guided group meditation. From 1:30 pm to 2:00 pm central (2:30 pm eastern, 12:30 pm mountain & 11:30 am pacific), we’ll meditate at our home, office or wherever we are to bring peace and clarity to our world. Join for a minute, 5 or 20… Meditate at home with the energy of a group.

Join us for a grounding self-guided meditation…

The Equinox is about finding balance and equality… finding the things that are discordant in your life and changing them (or releasing) them to play a different note.

Listen to the song of yourself. What is the message behind the music?

The more you know about yourself, the easier it is to stay true to you.

Join us as we listen to the sounds of the Universe and create a space of peace. Meditate at home with the energy of a group - Saturday, September 21st at 8:30 pm eastern, 7:30 pm central, 6:30 pm mountain, and 5:30 pm pacific.

Wonder… it seems to be easier to feel as children … awe and fascination with something new. How often in the routines and rhythms of our adult lives do we give in to the feeling of wonder?

Could this be why life-changing things happen on vacation? Do we need novelty in our lives?

We’ll talk about this and make some artwork :)

We’ll be activating our Throat Chakra, and we can  start with colors like turquoise, blues – light to dark, silver, bronze and white.

Ahimsa means nonviolence. A Warrior is someone who survives. An Ahimsa Warrior is one who can do this nonviolently. Dealing with trauma is challenging, and recovering is a battle we face again and again.

This workshop is intended for those who work for peace within themselves, knowing that it ripples outward to create peace in the world. It is designed to teach us how to channel the energy of our past into artwork that heals.

How do we keep wonder in our lives? Natural wonders, vacations, new restaurants, new artwork… We can keep our physical world novel, but what about the wonder inside?

Can we see the wonder in a situation that may be challenging? Can we wonder about the meaning behind our inner critic? This super moon and partial eclipse can signal an ending or transition to something new. Pay attention to those things in your life that are ready for a change.

“If you can laugh in the face of chaos, confusion and environments falling apart around you, you have put yourself on the golden line of healing and progress.” ~ Lena Stevens, The Power Path

Join us for a moment of wonder Tuesday, September 17th at 9:00 pm central.

If you’d like to dive deeper into the topic of Wonder, join us for a healing artwork workshop on Saturday, September 21st where we’ll activate our Throat Chakras and talk about the wonder in our lives.

Improvement and change have been a big theme recently and now it’s time to see how that relates to our self-care.

What does self-care mean to you? Is it something that’s an integral part of your daily routine? Or something that only happens on vacation, when you are making an effort to relax?

How can self-care change our perspective and positivity?

Join us Monday night for a moment to ourselves. Meditate or consciously breathe for a few minutes and connect with the energy of our group.
