Midsummer Meditation

Today’s meditation is a live recording from this year’s Summer Solstice Meditation Retreat.
Midsummer and the temps are hot… literally and figuratively. As a way to explore the feelings that come with rising temperatures, in today’s class I share two powerful poems:
An Inn for the Coven by Gabrielle Calvocoressi
The Guest House by Rumi
These poems speak of a place where we are safe.
The Inn feels lush, abundant, filled with love and the possibility of beauty.
The Guest House feels sturdy, spacious enough for all our feelings to reside without conflict.
We hear of our loves, our hurts, and our divinity in these poems; all different and all the same and all inside.
And so, this midsummer meditation is an invitation to explore the inn.
To travel the grounds finding all the hidden trails.
To open all the doors.
It is an invitation to create or discover an internal experience of deep, nourishing safety, a place to nurture our love and hope. A place to rest well and to feel fully.
