About Heart Sessions

Hello all. This blog is intended to honor the group meditations initiated by Tom Sawyer, now carried on by friends of his since his passing. Being physically spread out as we are we have agreed to sit down in our own homes at the same clock time, 9pm EST on Sunday nights. We sit for at least 20 minutes, although sitting for longer periods is no problem if you so choose.


There is no specified technique for these meditations. Precisely prescribed actions sometimes become unauthentic and what is meaningful for one person may not be for another. So if you choose to assist you may use a favored technique or listen within, apply self-honesty, and allow growth. There is no political or economic agenda involved. There are no dues or dogma. The essential point is an honest willingness to help.


Each week there is a suggested focus as posted on this blog. We previously had been using an email list but now, through the kind assistance and generous guidance of Barbara Whitfield and Donald Brennan, we have the pleasure of this blog forum. Loving thanks to you both. Comments may be left by clicking the "Leave Comments Here" link below each post.

For Sunday March 10th, 2013

Hello to everyone, I have sad news and a request from a friend. Many on this list knew Tom Sawyer and perhaps something of his connection to his grand daughter Vanessa. Vanessa died on March 4th due to a drug overdose. Tom's son Todd and his wife Aretha have been living on high alert for the last 7-8 years as they've dealt with her addictions. This is not the outcome they ever wanted but they trust that Vanessa is now in the loving hands of her grandfather.

Todd has asked for our assistance in healing his family. In his own words, "If there's something you can do, I'm asking." He's referring to his mother Elaine, he and Aretha, and their son Alex.

While there is a great deal of strength in his family this kind of pain can be shattering. May we ask for God's Light to come down upon them, that they find the courage to face life as it currently is, that their healing be ongoing and beneficial to all.

Thank you,

Richard
