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 January 17th, 2016

Hello everyone, the old question about whether a glass is half full or half empty misses an important point – the glass itself is beautiful. Beauty in the moment is easy to see when the glass is full. But standing back to take a longer view, to watch the glass filling and emptying and refilling, shows the beauty of patterns in our lives over time. 

May we sit this evening, in whatever place we may find ourselves pattern-wise, and take a longer view of our own selves. May we recognize patterns in others and find them similar to our own.

Thank you,

Richard
