Dear Friends, Yogis and Lovers of Life,

I send you greetings of love and peace in these transitional days between holidays and the new year...days ripe for recovery, reflection and curiosity.

I have acquired a new book in my inspirational collection called "Spirit Wheel" and the poem I am sharing below expresses so beautifully what our upcoming
New Year Mini Retreat ~ Sunday, January 4th, 1:00-4:00 PM
is all about. There can be a deep refreshing that comes from just a handful of hours spent in guided release and reflection, retreating from the "swirl of life".

We have plenty of spaces left so if you are craving a mindful and relaxing start to the new year, please join us.  The afternoon will include a new year ritual, guided journaling, gentle yoga and a crystal bowl sound bath. Sliding scale donation based tickets are available on Eventbrite or you can email me to let me know you wish to join us.

Also, for those who enjoy mantra chanting, sacred poetry & meditation in community you are invited to join us tomorrow morning 9:00-10:00 AM at Westminster Unitarian Church in East Greenwich. 
Greg and I will be leading the church service :)

Come Down Easy - by Steven Charleston, Spirit Wheel

Come down easy, dear soul.

Come down easy into the rest you need.

Here is this place prepared for you, 

A quiet spot in the midst of the swirl of life,

A still pool, where you can be undisturbed and at peace.

Let your worries drift away like autumn smoke.

The world will wait for you.

But for now it is on the far side of the hill.

Your only task is to be healed of impatient time,

Unburdened by demanding thought,

Free of the daily dance of any expectation.

this is the timeless place,

The healing place for which you have longed.

Come down easy and stay as long as you like.
