A Spiritual Dimension

My ministry at Wholistic Growth Resources as a Body Therapist and T’ai Chi Chih teacher, affords me the opportunity to bring to the residential participants of our program, much joy and peace.

The sessions in T’ai Chi Chih are always gift, for each period brings new insights. No matter if the group is learning, reviewing, or refreshing themselves with the movements, I always bring the session to closure with some time of quiet. I read a short portion from some reflection of Justin Stone, or an excerpt from Steve Ridley’s “Perspectives…”, and then tap our beautiful sounding Tibetan bell. We remain in silence in the awarenesses received, as we sense the wonder of our body, the peace, the relaxation, the mental stillness, and the openness to receive from the Changeless Other. After a few minutes, I again ring the bell; each one leaves at her/his own timing and this atmosphere of joyous contentment pervades the day. We experience gratitude and universal harmony. Truly–gift!
