This is a question that I wrestle with as I reflect upon all that is going on in my community and in the world around me.? It can be so easy to get caught up on the emotions and activities of things half a world away from us and forgot that our first priority needs to be with our own soul.? Am I focusing so much on the external things that I am forgetting to nourish my soul and feed those things that keep me healthy?? Am I listening to the inner part of me that has all wisdom and all knowledge about what is best for me?? Amongst all the turmoil, I watch people around me get so involved in causes, activism and other outer world activities I can see the toll it takes as the their mental, emotional, and spiritual health begins to decline.? We can be the most help to those in need when we are at our best.? So, I propose that we look inward first.? Are we doing all we should to care for ourselves?? Are we clear with our priorities and understand very well what it is that is driving our actions?? And is it in alignment with our highest good?? If we aren’t in a good place internally, it can be challenging to discern where it is that our reactions and responses are coming from.? Focusing first internally can assist us to ensure that we are in alignment with the will of our soul and our highest good.?Blessings!!?Jeff & Joleft000Words to the Wise...?Words to the wise this July:? the sacredness of family may be at the forefront of many of our minds, and I have a feeling our emotional depths this month will far surpass “knee high”.? So let us all take a collective breath together and embrace the wisdom of the Divine Mother.? I have a personal story I would like to share with you all, one that will stick with me forever.??This story takes place during the Christmas season at my grandparents’ house, a place where many of my most fond memories call home.? My Grandmother was a fabulous cook, my uncle (we will call him Don for anonymities sake) was always late.? Fate would have it this Christmas that the Holiday spread would feature Filet Mignon as the main entrée.? My Gracious and Giving grandparents really went all out this particular year, sparing no expense because when it came to family there was never a price too high for them to blink an eye.? I always looked forward to my grandmother’s cooking (she was an exceptional cook), but as you can imagine, this year the prospect of being spoiled with such a delicious cut of meat had created much anticipation and buzz.? We all always expected my Uncle Don to be late, so precautions were taken, and he was invited to arrive much earlier than when dinner was meant to be had.? Alas, Uncle Don was to be late again.? Usually this wouldn’t have created such an upheaval because like I said, we always expected Uncle Don to be late, but hunger (especially for Filet) can quickly turn family members on each other.? And about 15 minutes after the steak was done (and now getting cold), my family including my grandfather had decided to abandon Don as a lost cause and eat without him.? My Grandmother, Mary, was not going to allow this.? She reminded us all that we were family, and that we weren’t going to eat until we could together as a family.? Mary had spoken and our grandmother’s wishes were to be honored.? Two hours later Don arrived, and we ate our cold overcooked Filet Mignon together as a family.?To this day whenever I share a meal with anyone, I don’t take a bite of anything until everyone has a seat at the table and food on their plate.? My advice during this astrological season of Cancer while we are investigating issues such as our emotional wellbeing, empathy, unconditional love and forgiveness in context with family, home and community: ?take some time in deep inner silence and commune with the spirit of the Divine Mother that exists within us all.?Many Blessings,Zachleft000New Moon Yoga NidraWednesday, July 11th5:30 - 6:30pmwith Naomi Cole?The new moon is a time of intention and new beginnings. It is a time to plant a seed of what you want to grow in life. Making a wish, an intention, a promise, or a heart valve is a common custom during a new moon. It is believed that as the moon grows, the intention will too, usually by the end of the moon completes its cycle and returns full circle to a new moon again. Yoga Nidra, means “Yogic Sleep” or “Psychic Sleep”, which is a deep relaxation technique and a form of meditation. You are in a deep relaxation state between sleeping and awaking. In the practice of Yoga Nidra, an intention is set at the beginning of the practice - a sankalpa, meaning heart longing vow. In this practice the results are deep relaxation and expanding the individual self-awareness. Yoga Nidra allows you to enter into your alpha state of the mind and shift your focus to the third eye chakra. The whole practice is a guided meditation, laying down on your back with support of props to deepen in the relaxation. Allow your new moon intentions to be sealed with a Yoga Nidra practice.
