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.

Saturday, October 19th at 12:00 pm central, 10:00 am mountain, 9:00 am pacific and 1:00 pm eastern (90 minutes)

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.

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.

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?

Join us for our ming + ming mediation class at 7pm central or for a self-guided mediation at 8pm central. Meditate for as long as you like, and tune into the energy of our group.

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.

About your teacher:

Marc has been practicing mindfulness meditation since 2009. He acknowledges that the profound effects of mindfulness have slowly, but permanently improved his life by: helping him make better choices; fostering self-confidence in a challenging second career; and maintaining sobriety for the past 10 years. 

Marc believes we all have the power and the intelligence to help ourselves if we are more aware of how we get in our own way. 

In addition to teaching meditation, Marc works at Arizona State University as a research professional and he is fascinated by terrestrial impact craters that were formed by asteroid fragments striking the Earth. He is also pursuing an undergraduate degree focused on counseling and applied psychological sciences. Marc lives in Arizona with his wife and small zoo (snake, parrot and dog) and really enjoys mountain biking in the desert - getting exercise without even noticing it!

This Capricorn Buck moon is a good time to acknowledge the completion of some things in our lives. If it’s not working, let it go.

It’s time to take responsibility for our own upgrades. Be mindful of unconscious wishes you may be bringing into your world. Our thoughts become our perception, so the more positive the outlook, the better our results.

Join us for a moment of calm Monday evening. Meditate for a few minutes with the energy of our group, or if you would like to join our ‘meditation in motion’ yoga class, sign up at ming + ming.

ming+ming Meditation via Zoom with Ming-Wai is grounding and focuses on self-love and acceptance.

With Juneteenth beginning our solstice celebration, I chose Sovereignty as our topic.

To be sovereign means to be in a self-governing state. It means that you decide what is best for you and exercise your free will.

Sometimes we gift our sovereignty to others by working around the decisions they’ve made for themselves or their wishes for us. This can be considered noble and gracious. But how often do we find ourselves giving too much or standing far from our truth?

Think about where you would like your energy directed this solstice, summer and beyond. Choose what is best for you. Make big plans!

Join us for some ‘me time’ and silence this Thursday at 3:30 pm central. Meditate for a minute or more and connect with the energy of our group.

We’ll be hosting an online chakra balancing on Wednesday, June 19th at 7pm central and a group meditation on Zoom Thursday, June 20th at 7pm central at ming + ming.

ming+ming meditation via Zoom with Laurie is pet inclusive and incorporates nature, animals and healing.

Wednesday, June 5th, 7:30 pm central

What areas of our lives need balancing? Are there tools that we use to bring things into balance?

This new moon is a good time to take a real look at relationships, not only with others, but with yourself as well. Where does your support come from? Share gratitude with yourself and those who help to maintain your balance.

Join our Wednesday meditation group in person on Zoom for a guided meditation or in spirit by meditating at or around 7:30 pm central time. Just set the intention to connect with the energy of our group.
