Greetings, friends—
The workshop at Unity—Phoenix was magical. Our experience was transformative, deeply personal, and clearly “in partnership.” We allowed the day to unfold in response to the needs of the group and we were transported! Magic happens.
Please check out the new tab on the web site, Retreats (www.meditationintro.com) . We can now offer personal retreats in addition to facilities for a group. The setting is ideal for those who want a day alone to wander, muse, write, and drink tea by the fireplace. Groups of all kinds are welcome. If you need a site for your group or meeting, we’ll provide lunch. Contact Ginny at ginnyco@gmail.com for details.
Our very first group retreat we’re planning for Saturday, March 31, 9:30 – 4:00. We’ll meditate, talk, and have lots of quiet time to wander, reflect and receive, or write. We’ll provide lunch so all you attend to is your inner world. We’re limiting the retreat to 12 participants. $35. Reservations: ginnyco@gmail.com If you’d like to add a day, stay overnight or come back on Sunday, tell Ginny and it’s done!
Our next Nurture Your Soul day is Feb. 18 at Lopez Lake. Details will follow next week.
Weekly guided meditation groups continue at Unity—SLO on Saturdays and Mondays, AG on Tuesdays, Hospice in SLO on Wednesdays, and Santa Maria the first Sunday. Groups are listed at the Schedule tab of the web site.
We’re here to experience. I wish you meaningful experiences! Ruth

Our first Nurture Your Soul (NYS) day, 11-19, was magical . . . and great fun. Stories from Rigel about dissecting a cadaver vied with descriptions by Carolyn of climbing Half Dome. Joelyn photographed many seconds of the day which may be viewed at the web site, www.meditationintro.com
Our next NYS day is 1-21-12. I’ve received several suggestions and request more. How can we eliminate any “carbon footprint” by avoiding plastic, styrofoam, and paper while still using cups, silverware, ... Continue reading...

With the change in the seasons, it feels like we have completed one phase of our work. The focus this year has been offering Introduction to Meditation classes.

We’ve made two CDs, we have four ongoing weekly groups and one monthly group, and, constantly, we’re improving our web site, www.medita... Continue reading...

Greetings friends—
The Matrix Energetics workshop was unbelievable—powerful, unexpected, transformative. Richard Bartlett has popularized this consideration of the morphic field underlying all existence. He teaches that we can play with the Universe in an arena of unlimited potential if we observe and allow and trust our intuition. I have his two books, Matrix Energetics and The Physics of Miracles. Please let me know if you want to borrow them. Warning: a “blessing” comes with rea... Continue reading...
