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 16th, 2022

Hello to each and every one of you, it has been said that the purpose of life is not to be happy, nor is it to suffer - but that the purpose of life is to experience. 

When that experience is met with strength, courage, self-honesty, and some humor, then growth occurs – growth which can diminish suffering and bring happiness.
 
May we sit this Sunday to love ourselves by employing enough strength to be courageous, and enough self-honesty to see the humor in our growth.

Thank you,

Richard
