053 Meditation: Shimmering Rhythms of Peace

Dear Listeners, Where to begin? The degree to which life, culture, nations, technology are changing around us is expectantly high. The movement is fast. Somehow, amidst this change, it seems we collectively passed through a threshold into a new time. Why do I say this? Using a small (but not insignificant) example will be easier. Recently AI was integrated into a number of products I currently use (personally and professionally) without opting in or out. This became a moment of wondering - when did we decide on this? Simultaneously, a few websites declared whether AI was used or not. Then there are AI beauty pageant and virtual humans are, in essence, multiplying… As change takes root, in many areas in life as we know it, I return to a few simple methods to remain grounded mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically. This means tending to the physical body via nutrition and movement, emotional body via expression and connection, mental body via focused attention, mental engagement and quieting practices, and spiritual body through nature or prayer (for example). I’m going return to this paragraph to provide links (and cross links), but must get this out now. While we navigate the storms, today’s meditation offers to help you experience your personal rhythm, and by using your imagination, help you anchor yourself in peace.
